My new mantra, when doing DIY, is now:

"Treat my tools as if they are my dad's"

My dad takes care over his tools (I do not), so if I borrow any of his, I make sure I am using it correctly and as it was intended and that it gets packed away clean and neat.

I even jet washed his jet washer the other day as I had got it dirty 🤦‍♂️

@mikestreety
Quite right! My dad used to say to me Look after your tools and they will look after you!

What are you diying?

Someone said they would never hire fat people, explaining that overweight people could not be trusted because if they lost the most precious thing in life - their body, their health - how could you trust them not to ruin the business they were hired to do?

While I don't endorse this opinion, I have to admit that it has been on my mind for about a year now.

I mean, I've been thinking about my body and my health.

👉 New on S&N: Disallowing Disallow

“Turns out, the Robots.txt file was preventing search engines from crawling the archives folder, which then meant that Google couldn’t then read the robots meta tags and know to noindex the pages. Damn.”

@chris22smith @malarkey

There is - obvs the robots. txt but if urls are indexed you usually want them out of the index so need to let Google read the pages noindex - then turn off using robots.txt Alternatively you can remove those urls from Google using Search Console. 😀

@malarkey

Additionally Google will be following links from other sites to your old pages. Even if you get them out of the index it is still going to be looking for them because of the offsite links. And your old posts are going to have a lot of links!

A brilliant line from the amazing @kirstyhulse irregular email newsletter:

"And I don't know about you, but magic rarely comes with a serious face in a serious suit."

@kirstyhulse

And to add to this i used to have a serious suit and could only do the magic occasionally - yet was expected to produce it on tap.

@optimisey never had issues with my knees playing keeper - just my hands as at school I kept wicket for my house with Chris Penn bowling.
