πŸ“ Finally completed the formal training at work after five straight weeks. Met my team and new boss; think I've landed on my feet! πŸ₯³

🌞 Another warm spell; about 25°C every day this week

πŸ‹πŸ»β€β™‚ No weigh-in this week as my friend used one of her β€œhall passes” (and it applies to both of us). Took advantage and ate well, but back on it again now.

🍿 Have been messing about with Plex this week. Set up a server on the Pi and tested streaming remotely. I'm having to convert all the video files to avoid transcoding; the Pi just ain't up to it. Other than that, it works like a charm.

🧱 Built another LEGO Formula 1 car; this time it was the Mercedes-AMG. Starting to look like a collection...
