When my central heating thermostat relay clicks off at night, it causes the TV screen to also momentarily go blank. I have no idea how.
Are you watching freeview when it does that?

My money would be on arcing of the relay contacts spiking the mains and upsetting the TV. You could maybe try a surge suppression adapter on the TV's power socket and see if that sorts it?When my central heating thermostat relay clicks off at night, it causes the TV screen to also momentarily go blank.

Both in the same room? I wonder if the relay is emitting an IR pulse that mimics the TV remote control??? Though just with a brief screen going black would be an odd "instruction".

The water plants I'd ordered a few days ago arrived today.
To keep them in good condition they were wrapped in damp newspaper. The newspaper was a copy of the Daily Express from 1978!
I can imagine the company needs a good supply of newspaper but who has, or somehow can get, a copy of a paper from 40 years ago.
Beats me.

I guess its because they have all been watching 50 shades of?Why people are painting things grey?
More likely:Let me guess the headline was either Saharan heatwave or Siberian freeze on its way
Furious woman poos on cafe floor then hurls it at waiter - https://metro.co.uk/2018/05/17/furious-woman-poos-cafe-floor-hurls-waiter-7552821/
I know, dirty cow never even washed her hands after.Disgusting.
When you stop at a motorway service station, walk into WH Smiths and see a rack of wet suits?? Who buys them. Who thought passing motorists might want a wet suit?
By any chance were they next the plans & instructions about Ark building
PS just how far from the sea was the service station?
Presumably she was shaking her wrist to increase her step count artificially.
She wasn't looking at it. She was walking straight ahead. I was sat in the car waiting to head off to work. She had her arm bent 90 degrees at elbow and was pumping her fist up and down for at least 2 minutes.Not necessarily, on the one I had you shook your wrist to activate the display
One of these gender neutral types practicing to be a bloke?She had her arm bent 90 degrees at elbow and was pumping her fist up and down for at least 2 minutes.
Driving alone a fairly quiet road this morning and the car in front suddenly stopped sharply in the middle of the road.................. apparently for an ambulance with the siren on coming in the other direction!!!!! wtf (excuse my French ) I never knew you have to stop for an emergency vehicle going in the opposite direction??? Is this in the Highway Code?
It's a single carriageway, actually wider than normal, with cars travelling at ease and no parked cars either side.
Baffling and somewhat unfair.
We currently have a voluntary redundancy / early retirement package at work. If you are under 55 at the time of separation, you only qualify for redundancy. 55 and over you qualify for early retirement package as well. So people requested their figures and then those that wanted to be considered were asked to notify HR. Because they don't want too many people leaving, there are some restrictions.
1. Each department has a minimum operational number so numbers will vary for each department.
2. You must have a minimum 33yrs service.
All sounds fairly reasonable, except one bloke at 65, who although he wasn't in any hurry to retire, the timing couldn't have been better. He has had a knock back because he hasn't been with the company 33 years. Sure he can retire any time he likes, but isn't eligible for the redundancy package. Yet another bloke, currently 54, but 55 by the time he goes in December, has 38yrs service, so he can go and qualifies for both.
How can that be fair?
Does the hot weather turn half the drivers into bloody idiots, or do the bloody idiots only appear in hot weather
Sounds about par for the courseIn doing so he managed to get a whole one car length in front of where he would have been had he been in the correct lane.
30c at Christmas? do you know something we don't?don't think people would be quite so irate if they were sat in 21c rather than 30c. It's the same every summer. The rage comes out. It's even worse than at Christmas!
