FREE STUFF from LIDL? Spin of Surprises Haul from Lidl Plus app!



This is a bit of an extreme experiment for the channel: Spinning the Lidl Spin of Surprises, on the Lidl Plus app FIVE times... here's what happens next!

FREE STUFF from LIDL? Spin of Surprises Haul from Lidl Plus app!



TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

usually I play this in the in the line at the checkouts oh I’ve won 
hello welcome back to the happy Hut 
I’m Neil this is the dad delivers channel we're we're outside it's night time night is setting in but before I go to bed I thought I’d try a little experiment here on the channel 
I’ve got the the Lidl plus app right here and I don't know if you have the Lidl plus app but if I scroll up you can see we've completed coupon plus 
we managed to do that in about seven days flat uh that resets every month 
but what I wanted to try and share with you was the joy that is Lidl's spin of surprises 
I thought that you could enjoy the roller coaster of excitement that I need to move to one side and so you can see it on screen here so you can play along with me you can play along at home and we'll see what the spin of surprises holds for us today 
now the weird thing with the spin of surprises is that Lidl don't actually tell us what the top prize is so I thought if I video this and share it with the world that I’d actually capture the moment where I win something on the Lidl spin of surprises 
so let's let's just dive straight in I hit the green button 
usually I play this in the in the line at the checkouts oh I’ve won! 
wow okay so this is this is good you're bringing me good luck thank you 
but we have got rivercote crackers 
I don't know what they are 
it looks like you can put cheese on them so that's good it doesn't say what type of crackers and of course Lidl have all of their fake brands don't they 
so rivercote - it's not just any old crackers they're rivercote crackers so that's fantastic and I’ve got to buy them within seven days as well so better save that coupon 
I only have four more Lidl’s spin of surprises let's go for the one that ends tomorrow and we'll hit that green button 
oh what's it gonna be I was gonna say only play this when I’m in the checkout queue 
oh that's no good sorry you didn't win this time we'll dive straight back in three more chances left 
I’m sure Lidl are going to top the rivercote packet of cracker I don't even know how many crackers I don't need to know this is just non-stop surprise entertainment 
oh that was so close that was so close sorry you didn't win this time 
we have two spin of surprises 
do you think we're gonna win on this one 
let's take a look we'll open it up
it's a good job I’m doing it here and not in the checkout queue 
oh man we can't go out on the rivercote crackers 
can you see it suddenly got really dark 
almost echoing the darkness of the of the Lidl app 
let's go for the last one 
this is going to be the one I know it here we go hit that green button
oh oh oh yes we did it high five ah we've had this before fantastic it's not a chocolate hazelnut croissant 
it's half a chocolate hazelnut croissant 
so does that make it a hazelnut croissant 
fifty percent off 
uh maybe I could get footage of me choosing the chocolate hazelnut croissant 
I don't know if it's -- are there... just chocolate ones and chocolate hazelnut 
I just think there's just one type of croissant there 
and are there any left 
I don't know because I’m recording this separately 
but this is me filming myself choosing the croissant 
putting the croissant in the bag 
I use my hands I don't know about you but the tongs surely we've reversed things so that holding the tongs probably isn't the most hygienic thing to do right now Lidl 
and it's either that or the plastic bags that you put your hands in but that's going to destroy the planet and we haven't even got any of those in our store anyway so manhandling my chocolate hazelnut croissant there it is on the conveyor belt today is a win today is a good day before the sun sets 
so here's my half a croissant 
I feel very proud it's a very proud day
I... I know no! 
it's my croissant! 
I didn't bother buying the crackers maybe I should 
there's the crackers 
where's the crackers there they are 
I don't know it's not even I don't even get the crackers for free 
it's 30 pence off the rivercote crackers I think we'll just leave that on the shelf there 
there they are rivercote crackers 
the booby prize the the runner up prize that's how I roll 
I can just leave 30 pence on the table on the app 
anyway if you have any spin of surprises you want to share with me leave them in the comments and we'll do this again sometime 
by the way here's what youtube thinks you want to be watching next 
can you please help my daddy get 1000 subscribers just click on his face thanks bye how was that

BUY ONE HERE: (As Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases) 

What is the best tempered glass screen protector for the Samsung Galaxy A51?
I think I've found it: the Spigen, 1Pack, Samsung Galaxy A51 Screen Protector, Full Coverage, 9H Tempered Glass, High-Responsiveness, Case Compatible, Anti-Fingerprint, Screen Protector
I love this one because the screen is curved, following the Samsung A 51 screen.

1:10 How to fit a tempered glass protective screen on a Samsung A51
2:00 How to avoid getting air bubbles on my phone screen protector

TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

what is the best tempered glass screen protector for this the Samsung galaxy A51 
I have fitted a few of these and I can honestly say my favourite one so far is this it's the Spigen woah, that’s a bit bright isn't it 
it's the Spigen alignmaster tempered glass screen protector for the Samsung A51 
I’m going to fit this in real time with you so you can actually see what this is like and why I think this is the best one that I’ve used so far 
it's actually for my son's phone 
this is a shot of a really bad out of focus picture 
my son dropped his phone and it did smash the glass 
he dropped it from about waist height with no screen protector on because we we've been through a few 
the biggest problem as you might know for the Samsung A51 phone is that the screen's gorgeous and it has this kind of curved edge 
and some tempered glass screen protectors actually give you like a sachet of gel to fill the gap 
you don't have to do this with the Spigen, that's the first reason but let me show you me going to the bathroom now to put this on this 
here is the Spigen tempered glass screen protector for the Samsung galaxy A51 and this is what comes inside the box 
we have a frame, some cleaning materials, a rubber I think for pressing down the screen to press out any bubbles 
all wrapped up is the actual screen itself with some instructions there and this is how the screen comes 
well that looks really smart 
really well presented 
there's a black frame around it which I know will annoy some people like my son because it's going to look like it reduces the screen size and maybe it does by a few pixels I’m not sure 
but as you can see it does go edge to edge and this looks so much more solid than some of the cheaper products 
but this isn't that expensive itself 
now to do this obviously a single spec of dust is going to completely ruin this by putting a bubble under the screen so I’m in the bathroom and I’m going to run some water 
apparently that helps get rid of some dust in the air 
I’m going to use the Spigen screen protector box as a base - a little workbench for me here 
let's open up the cleaning materials 
there are more instructions here on the technique for removing air bubbles 
oh it's called a squeegee that's what this is called it's the squeegee to get rid of the bubbles 
dust removal sticker this is what you usually get in screen protectors tempered glass screen protectors 
a nice dry microfiber cloth and a wet wipe to really give the screen a proper clean so let's do that now 
wow it's quite a generous size 
usually the ones you get in the cheaper screen protectors are a bit dried up and tiny but this is a proper wet wipe 
now I’m going to dry the screen and I’m going to use the dust removal sticker to just make sure everything's picked up
next goes on the frame guide 
that clips perfectly on the front 
wow that fits so perfectly I’ve used others - cheaper screen protectors - that not fit the phone or they fit the phone and they don't fit the actual screen protector so this is really good 
they're not paying me 
and then we're going to remove the backing which if you've used the screen protectors before that you've probably not seen a backing like this
it's rigid and then I’m going to lay it down on the guides and then follow the instructions so I’m going to press here at the top and then slide down so the middle pushes out the air bubbles 
I’m going to lift the guide frame and I’m going to press out all these air bubbles 
I don't know if they're showing up on the camera 
ah I’ve got a bit of dust there 
now the danger is you can make it a lot worse by doing this so here it goes nothing 
you don't know if the dust is on the phone or the screen 
right zapped that one that's good 
that's the next thing we're going to do is to remove this top sticker 
that's just informational really 
and then I can't see any bubbles but there are just in case there are tiny ones and just to really really super make sure that the adhesive on here spreads 
and we've got a good coverage any tiny tiny bubbles I can't see are pressed out 
so that's it I’m really really pleased with how this has gone 
I’m just going to rub off my fingerprints now 
there are no bubbles whatsoever 
what's really good with this as well apart from meeting it up to the bezel and being friendly for cases - what's really good is that there's no hole for the camera so you don't have to line it up with the camera you can just go straight over the camera and that might be something you might want to bear in mind 
maybe you do not want your screen cover over your camera but this looks like it just protects it 
and it's... you don't have to line it up 
that frame was really useful 
I’ve got this fusion clear case 
it's a cheap case but just to show you how it plays friendly with the screen protector or rather the screen protector accepts all cases that is really well covered really well protected and no bubbles 
that is a success 
there's Casper the dog! 
yeah he's giving us a woof of approval 
that is a definite definite success - well worth the money 
so the screen is on my Samsung or my son's Samsung A51 now 
it is gorgeous no bubbles I absolutely hate fitting screen protectors to phones and this works this did the job and there are no bubbles 
it looks great and what I don't think I mentioned in the bathroom was the case doesn't clash with the screen protector at all which is fantastic 
if this video is helping you can help me - I’m trying to get to 1000 subscribers that YouTube pay me for these videos please why not hit the thumbs up button or if you're feeling even more awesome the subscribe button - would be fantastic to get us one step closer to the big 1000 - and don't forget the links to this are in the description below if you want to find the same screen protector 
thanks for watching and here's another video that YouTube thinks you'd like to watch

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

hello welcome back to the channel
if I stay quiet for a moment you might be able to hear a petrol mower in the background
[PETROL MOWER NOISE] 
so I’m sorry for that noise but I don't have to deal with any of that because today I’m unboxing this
the Flymo Simpliglide 330. 
look there's some shots of me there using it later because I have time jumped
that is after I have opened the box 
let's watch some more of of me in action doing some actual gardening with the Flymo Simpliglide 
this channel used to be called the tightwad dad blog 
but that felt a bit negative even though we were trying to be happy with what we've already got 
so now it's called dad delivers and today dad delivers this Flymo Simpliglide 
oh probably shouldn't have probably should have been a bit more careful with that 
here it goes
clunk while I’m opening I’ve got my special steak knife
by the way it's not as good as the American vlogger but it's all I’ve got
maybe I’ll show you some shots of the box 
this is an electric hover non-collect lawnmower which is why we got it we wanted something to just fling around the garden or technically in my case I wanted something so that my long-suffering wife could carry on mowing the lawn without my uh assistance 
what we did with our old mower we actually took off the the box because it was just so much easier to just not have it clog up and just fling it around and let the birds collect the grass
but we didn't see too much online about what this actually looks like out of the box so I hope this video is helpful 
this is what comes in the box so we've got the handles 
we got this from amazon by the way and if you want one exactly the same as this there's there's a link in the description if you buy it from there
I get a few pennies 
amazon rain me with coin
pretty much everything you get in the box 
the main unit comes in a bag
it's really light the whole box I believe is about seven and a half kilograms I could carry it and I’m not the strongest hardest working person on youtube and the base it feels like pure plastic which I love 
it's really light I’m actually looking forward to using this it comes with this protective wrapping which goes underneath the distinctive orange case there and over on the top the logo is protected 
just like an apple product
and what I’ve already noticed which is better than my mo and vac
is that we have these nice caster rollers at the front
and underneath this was the biggest thing that we didn't know about and that's the blade
on our MowNvac we have a blade with plastic blades that rotate and we really wanted that because for our garden it's incredibly uneven I’ve got a little dog who's nine months old and really really good at digging holes that's Casper there 
just going for it
so mowing around Casper’s er Great Escape work isn't the easiest task
so I was worried about getting a metal blade but what's really strange with this is that it doesn't actually look like a blade 
so it's a block of metal but it's kind of chiselled 
it's kind of angled can you see that
so that it's a blade there 
but it doesn't feel quite as dangerous as we thought it would be 
there's a crack
can you see that there's a there's a crack there it runs all the way from the top to the bottom there 
so Flymo if you're if you're watching this we're not that impressed 
it does come well wrapped the instructions that comes with the Flymo Simpliglide 330 as you can see inevitably the instructions are really nice and oblique 
hey maybe next time you could make the writing just a little bit smaller 
just a suggestion
so I’m going to do this on camera in case it helps you and if I go wrong then you might be able to avoid my mistakes 
let's push this in there we go so the pin holds it there 
and that looks that looks really nice 
good so we've got a handle on
that's a great start 
now I didn't think I would turn this video into a how to assemble a Flymo mower
but it is 
the next thing we need to do is to put the lever handle on top of this handle and obviously you need to make sure that the button is facing upwards when you do this 
Alright so this isn't quite as complicated as I thought it would be 
so you have to line up the top handle with the bottom handle and then we're gonna have these nice tightening bolts on the outside so run the nut through here to attach the two handles together 
and you can use the nice grey tightening nut yeah you don't need to tighten it that much 
and I’ll do the same on the other side so the nut comes through the two handles and then you can put this on the outside and this will help you oh and I think this will help you dismantle it any time you want to fold it down
now thankfully in the instructions they're instructions for fitting the handles but they come attached straight 
oh there's Casper oh yeah so all I need to do now is attach the cable holder 
so I’ll put one there and I’ll put another one down here 
well I’m not sure I want it near near the blade I’m still not sure I like having the cable at the bottom when I want it over my shoulder
now with the cable clips don't make the same mistake that I did I ended up clipping the orange lead to it which makes no sense at all 
because you're then taking the power lead as close to the blades as possible these cable clips are actually for the the black cable which is really obvious now but I did it the other way 
I did it the wrong way around so if you use the clips to tidy up the black cable that goes to the motor that just clips on there perfect and then obviously you can hold this cable over your shoulder to keep it away from the blade
I think we are good to go so this is the superglide 330 looking as clean as it ever will
do before it starts the journey across the battle of the somme that is our garden
it has the design of a sports car you can tell what quality cars I drive this is the inaugural flight of the Flymo easy glide 330. 
let's fire this up for the very first time
you have to hold down the the press button hold that down at the same time as pulling the grip
[FLYMO MOWER NOISE] 
I’m doing this one hand because I’m holding the camera so that's that's how easy glide it is 
so I’m now going to take this out for a spin and while I’m doing that you can just live vicariously through me doing my well over to lawn mowing 
you can probably see that I’ve well I yeah I say we it's me I’ve let it grow a bit long 
let me talk you through some of the features while I am mowing and modelling this as best I can 
honestly this is the the most work I’ve done in the garden uh this year 
so this is an electric hover non-collect lawnmower to simply mow your lawn and is easy to store 
these are Flymo's words I’m just reading off the box 
it's easy to manoeuvre
this lightweight lawnmower floats on a cushion of air making it highly manoeuvrable and you can see here that that is really the case and this is why we wanted to buy the Flymo Simpliglide
what we were doing with our previous Flymo mower was actually just taking off the grass box and then flinging it around the garden like this 
and I suspect the the the boffins and the designers at Flymo knew that's how we're actually using their crafted devices
and look at this it just glides over our railway sleepers without breaking a sweat no grinding noises it just glides over it without any moaning or negative consequences whatsoever
underneath let me give you a demonstration 
uh obviously I’m being very careful here but this is what the long life metal blade looks like 
and in case you're concerned this is what it looks like spinning I’m using this in a way that you and I would never use but I’m doing this for your benefit 
so I hope I hope this helps
the flat folding handles allow you to hang the mower up on the wall for space-saving storage and on the box it says it weighs 7.3kg 
it feels lighter to me that sounds really heavy seven bags of sugar 
for a mower this feels really really light and and because you can hold it with both handles it makes it much easier to to move around
this lever allows you to operate with either hand for greater flexibility and manoeuvrability
on the noise front it is is what you would expect with a Flymo so it doesn't feel too loud to our ears it's certainly much quieter than a petrol mower and a lot less smelly too
let me show you what the grass looks like a bit closer
just so you can see this is what it looks like out of the box
with no adjustments to the blade height so that for us is just what we need
for the way that the Flymo Simpliglide works there are spacers
let me show you they come in the bag so you put the spacer in and that gives you a lower height we love it 
this is exactly what we wanted and our fears like we said earlier were the the plastic blades feel a bit safer than having a spinning metal blade
but this metal blade seems less lethal if that makes sense
because it's so flat and flush with the motor it feels a lot safer and we are not the kind of gardeners who need the grass to be collected 
we will just leave this out for it to dry out in the sun and blow away uh hopefully into our neighbour’s garden over that way where the massive petrol mower is making its way 
if this video is helping I’m trying to get this channel to 1000 subscribers I don't think it'll ever happen - I’m on about 320 but as soon as we hit 1000 subscribers youtube actually give us money for these videos at no cost to you so if you're feeling awesome and extra kind why not hit that subscribe button or the thumbs up to let someone else see this video and good luck with your hover mower purchase
there's some other videos up here 
this is what YouTube thinks you should be watching next

How to renew UK DRIVING LICENCE Online step by step tutorial 2021



How do you renew your UK Driving licence?
In this video, I renew my Driving licence online and manage to do it in under 10 minutes... so you can follow along in case it helps to renew yours!

How to renew UK DRIVING LICENCE! Online step by step tutorial 2021



0:00 How to renew a UK driving licence online 2021
0:33 What you need to apply for a UK driving license with DVLA online: a valid UK passport, to be resident of Great Britain, £14, your current driving licence and National Insurance number
2:10 Can you use your passport to renew a UK driving licence? Yes - it automatically uses the photo and signature from the passport

THE LINK FOR WHERE TO RENEW UK DRIVING LICENCE ONLINE IS:

TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

How do you renew your UK driving licence?
I’m going to walk you through the process step by step so let's dive in.
There's a link in the description to the page that you can go to: this is how you do it in 2021 and maybe 2022. 
If anything changes though in the future I’ll change the link in the description, that's the only place you need to go, and I’m going to walk you through the entire process in real time. 
So this is the renew your driving licence gov.UK page. 
I’ll scroll down here because there are some exceptions at the moment you can pause the video if you need to see any of this.
But it gives you a list of what you need which is a passport.
I haven't got my passport. 
I’ve got to go and get my passport!
You need to be a resident of Great Britain. 
Well I’ve got the worry lines so checked out there totally and there's a few other details there but I’ll just scroll up to start now.
And we'll go through this step by step so this actually takes me to the DVLA website and the first page says please don't use the buttons on your browser.
Make sure you've got the documents to hand. 
I haven't so I’m going to have to pause and go into the house to get them! 
Make sure the details you enter your own, you can't apply for someone else. 
I wish someone else were doing this for me.
There's a page on the data security I’ll click next...
Now the first thing it wants is our details, so I’ll just fill this in.
I’ll speed it up. 
I always want to put something like sir or lord or grandmaster! 
Shall I put grandmaster?
Grand... master. 
The next page wants our address so shall put number 10 Downing Street? 
The next thing DVLA want from me is my driver number. 
I’d like to think that they would know my driver number but I guess we'll just type it in anyway to give them a hand.
Okay so I had a bit of a problem there I forgot to put all my names, so if you're filling this in don't forget to put all your names. 
Now this page is a bit weird: “so that we can process your application we will check your identity and the details you've given us with third parties” 
You're the government!
Surely... surely you've got all the details you need from me?
Wow this is quite intrusive. 
On this next page it now wants my national insurance number. 
On the next page DVLA wants to know my passport number. 
I think they can actually use the same photo and signature from my passport and put it on the driving licence.
I’ve... I’ve just got to go and get my passport. 
Got my passport so now I need my passport number.
The next page is this: it wants my photocard driving license issue number.
I can't really show you. 
I don't want to show you my details because I don't want you to be able to drive in my name but somewhere on here there are two digits.
Two digits? 
Somewhere on here there are two digits and it explains where it's after my driving licence number.
And my photo card number which is a 10 or 12 digit number.
It would be too easy wouldn't it just have one kind of number?
That's in at the bottom of your licence there. 
You know it really helps if you take a photo of your thing because then you've got everything in place.
Take a photo of both sides of your driving licence.
Are you currently disqualified from driving? 
No.
Do I want to do organ donation? 
Finally there's a declaration so you have to tick these two boxes to continue. 
There's a summary page that lists out everything you've typed in so far and then it takes you to this payment page so you can put in your payment details 
I’m going to use my wife's credit card and see if they notice this 
And then it looks as if we have success and finally there's a little survey to ask how they're done because you know the government is er... the government needs to know how we're feeling about it I guess
I can see on my camera that entire process took me seven minutes including running into the house and coming back with my passport so I hope this helps. 
Does this help?
Leave a comment below if any part of the process changes I’ll put a new link in the description but everything you need is... is right there in the description
Good luck with renewing your UK driving licence.

How to fix a bricked KINDLE: not charging, Amazon Kindle stays on battery logo



Does your Amazon Kindle hang on the empty battery icon?
Your Kindle doesn't seem to charge, even though the charging light is orange... and the screen just shows a battery logo with an exclamation mark.
If your Amazon Kindle is not working, not turning on and doesn't charge with an exclamation point, I have 2 possible solutions for you in this video!

How to fix a bricked KINDLE: not charging, Amazon Kindle stays on battery logo



0:00 How to fix a bricked KINDLE : Amazon Kindle not charging, stays on battery logo
1:00 Method 1: Reset Kindle by removing some books from your Amazon account, to trigger a sync to your Amazon Kindle
2:40 Method 2: Fix your Amazon Kindle by charging it from a laptop not a wall charger

TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

hello I’m Neil welcome back to the happy hut 
this is the dad delivers vlog where we try to be happy with what we've already got 
and we've already got this 
it's an Amazon Kindle but we're not happy with it because look 
it has bricked!
it has completely tanked 
it has stopped working 
it's a Kindle paperwhite and nothing removes this horrible icon of doom gloom and death 
is this device dead 
I’m going to try and fix this using only my laptop and if this has happened to you too I’m so sorry 
we've only had this like two years 
but there might be a way to fix this 
my Kindle is actually my... it's actually my wife's Kindle 
but her Kindle is only showing a battery icon with a exclamation mark 
as you can see I don't know if you can see in the daylight 
there is a nice battery charging light 
but nothing happens 
it doesn't turn green and it just... it just stays dead 
it's completely bricked 
this Kindle has just stopped working 
so thanks for coming along with the ride of the jeopardy with me 
so this is my wife's Amazon home page 
I’ve obviously blanked out some crucial details because goodness forbid that you would actually order some stuff for us 
probably do less damage than we do with it 
if I zoom in on the left hand side you can see this hamburger menu icon 
the three lines in a row there 
that indicates this menu 
and if I scroll down you can see digital content and devices 
I’m going to go down to Kindle e-readers and books 
click on that but I’m going to go all the way down to manage your content and devices 
now this has opened up the list of books on my wife's dead Kindle 
I wonder if all of these books might have crashed this Kindle 
I’m going to remove the ones I know she's not going to read 
so let's try this one and this one 
I’ve selected just two random books and I’m hoping changing the account will somehow force Amazon to try and contact this device 
so if I hit delete here and this deletes them from my wife's Kindle’s library 
by the way you get to see a little glimpse into mine and my wife's reading history 
yeah make of this what you will 
whoa the next thing I need to do is to come indoors 
this is where I’ve got wi-fi connection to the... the Kindle 
and the next thing we need to do is to press and hold down the power button for a long time so I’m going to try that and see if that somehow reboots it 
and let go of the power button 
which isn't worked at all 
what a waste of time 
okay so that didn't work but there's another solution that apparently does work and it means that I’ll be slightly less grumpy and it involves plugging this into your computer to charge it up rather than into a wall socket 
if you plug in your Kindle to your computer - it charges at a different voltage and if you leave it on charge for about half an hour in a computer sometimes that helps 
if you can hold down the power reset button for about 45 seconds 
and we've got the charge light on so that's a good sign 
I’m going to leave this for half an hour 
so we just got back from the park and you will never guess what's happened 
haven't got my microphone on - I’m sorry I think you can guess what happened 
it worked! 
it's brought the Kindle back to life 
yeah look by plugging it into a computer it charges it at a different voltage there's some kind of block from using a wall charger 
so while my family are arguing about whether an Asus Chromebook is a mum computer 
I will celebrate the fact that I have somehow managed to fix her Kindle 
there's all kinds of rows kicking off here now 
if this has helped you please hit a thumbs up so that other people can find this video too and if it hasn't leave a leave a comment because I’m sure people down below will be able to help you with your broken Kindle 
oh man I’ve got Bolognese on the back of my paperwhite 
can you please help my daddy get 1000 subscribers

Kicked off LEGOLAND® ride - Breakdown on Laser Blaster 2021



We got kicked off the Laser Blaster ride when it broke down... and... er that's it. No free ride, voucher, or even a drink. If it breaks down, can you please get off and walk over there please, thank you. 
The staff were very polite and excellent and kept us safe for which we are grateful.
This is obviously going to come off as entitled or privileged but... isn't this a chance for the Legoland® Windsor Resort procedure to delight a bunch of people who queued a long time? 
Or paid quite a bit of cash for the experience?
Look at our 100% hubris assuming we'd get something for this!
Chumps.

Kicked off LEGOLAND® ride - Breakdown on Laser Blaster 2021

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

okay so I’m going to open the video like this 
we didn't do this but the ride is broken
What happens next?!
[COMPUTER GAME SHOOTING NOISES]

I had zero. 
I don't know
I had so many!
okay so there's a little bit of a problem with this ride
that's okay he stopped oh thank you glad it's not us 
we'll see if we can let's see if we can get another ride 
well this is pretty fun 
nice you get to sit down 
it's like the first rule of theme park is don't stand up
look what I’m gonna do I’m gonna put the camera down to see if I can get a better score while I’m not filming okay 
so it's just a tannoy announcement to say they've got to abandon the ride and shut it down 
do you think someone got hurt
I know we spent our time I know we spent our time 
but it's exciting we're in an emergency situation 
management are coming in ten minutes 
maybe management will let us go round twice yes management... oh here we go
oh yeah Legoland Windsor come on 
for the abandoned ride!
maybe - yeah - it's all going on over there
okay right aim take aim right now so I’m going to stop the camera now to get a good score and we'll see if we can get an extra ride
so it stopped again!
yeah I know we could have done it because the park closes in half an hour and the ride has stopped again
oh it's management - management's coming up here
and then follow me back this way wow so we're walking backwards through the ride here we go
just telling them that we're taking everyone out
sorry
wow so that was the laser-- I’ll give that an eight I think that was pretty good 
I give that uh I give that a 10. that was fun I’ve never...
okay
where's us that's us oh no we've got zero 
we didn't even get a photo 
yeah not much of an apology there given we'd wait and waited to get for that one

get everyone off 
so that was laser raiders

How to set VAILLANT timer program & time - remote control VRT350f Ecofit pure central heating boiler

How to set VAILLANT timer program & time - remote control VRT350f Ecofit pure central heating boiler



How do you set the time and timer programme on a Vaillant boiler remote control, for something like the Vaillant EcoFit Pure central heating boiler?
I show you how I set the time and date on my Vaillant boiler VRT350f remote control for my Vaillant Ecofit Pure boiler... then I set the timer program to control my central heating through the week. We'll also look at the different kinds of timer programmes we can set.

0:00 How to set VAILLANT boiler timer program & time - remote control VRT350f Ecofit pure central heating
0:10 How to change the time and date on Vaillant boiler remote control
2:10 How to set the timer programme on Vaillant boiler remote control VRT 350f for Ecofit pure Vaillant boiler

TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

I’ve got my Vaillant remote control the VRT 350f 
I only know it's called that because of this manual that I’ve also got 
we are going to set the date first 
so we'll go to the menu and you hit menu 
which is the button on the left 
and then we want to turn the dial so this dark block highlights basic settings 
you have to turn it down and down and down so you see from the top it's not showing so you go down to basic settings then press the select button on the right hand side 
and guess what it's date and time 
press select 
and the dial when you turn it, it jumps the cursor the black block around the different numbers that you can change 
so for the dates, the date today is the seventh of February so seven is okay and then we'll turn the dial to highlight this five - which is wrong - and then I’ll press this button here to select change 
and you can see the black block is flashing - the cursor is flashing - and I’ll turn that all the way around, or back, to February which is two 
then hit ok and this number on the end is the year 
so we're going to change that to 2021. nearly said 2020. 
there we go press ok 
now we can set the time and that's in the same place here 
the time now is 1707. 
so I just need to turn this - this dial takes it all the way up to 23 and all the way down to zero 
so I want to change that to - it's five o'clock so that's 17 - and then I’ll hit ok to move it onto the next number and then we'll take that back to 07. 
it's taking so long let's make it eight 
1708 
then I’ll hit okay and it offers to have daylight saving or not 
in the UK that's basically changing between British summer time and GMT basically to set your summer time for the boiler to automatically change the clock 
I’m going to hit okay 
we've set the date and time on the Vaillant boiler remote control 
I’m gonna try and set the timer now! 
so this could take some time 
the first timer that I want to set - I want the heating to come on at six in the morning and go off at eight o'clock in the morning - and I want to do that every day Monday to Sunday so that's what I’m going to set 
there are other timer programs that you can set and the details for those are in my other video - the really big long video and that link is in the description 
first we need to press the menu button on the left hand side 
and then we'll turn the dial to highlight the cursor over time programmes
and I’ll hit select and “heating 1” is the program for all of our heating so I’ll select that
press select 
and here if I go through the dial - you can see that there's a timer program for Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday 
all the way through to Sunday 
and then the next timer program is for Monday to Friday 
then Saturday and Sunday - there's a timer program for that 
and finally there's a timer program for Monday to Sunday - all the way through the week 
that is the timer program that we want to set and then once we've done that I’ll go back and delete all of the others, because the others will take priority over this basic daily program 
so we're gonna set Monday to Sunday first 
and you can see already it's set for six o'clock to seven o'clock 
we want to change that to eight o'clock 
so to go into the Monday to Sunday program, I’m going to hit select 
and it's highlighted six o'clock - that's good that's what we want 
so let's turn the dial to move over to seven o'clock and I’ll hit change which is this button here 
and it's flashing so I can turn the dial and it goes up in ten minute increments 
we'll take that to eight o'clock 
hit okay 
now I only want two timers.
I want one in the morning and one in the evening, and there are three slots 
so we don't want to use three slots we only want to use two slots 
and the way to keep the slot empty or blank is to just set the same time, so it start stops on the same time so it doesn't exist 
so here on period two we've got 12 o'clock to 12 o'clock 
that's great because that will leave it blank for us 
so hit cancel and then we're gonna turn the dial down to period three...
right this is the timer program for the evening 
now it gets cold about five o'clock 
I’m a tightwad though - so what should we say 
I’ll call it 5 30. 
I’ll be kind to the family we've only got like one month of coldness surely 
so to change the 1830 to 1730, I’m going to press change 
so the time flashes 
and then I’m going to turn the dial back to 1730 
and then I’ll hit ok 
that takes us on to 9 o'clock 
I think that seems quite reasonable! 
should I call it 9:30? I’ll call it 9:30 because then the radiators will cool down 
maybe everyone will go to bed 
so I’ll just turn the dial to 21.30 then I’ll hit ok 
which is great so that means my Monday to Sunday timer program is set 
it's going to come on at six o'clock go off at eight o'clock and the same at 5:30 and go off at 9:30. 
so if I hit back that takes us back to the timer programs 
now these daily programs they're going to override what I’ve just set 
you can see that Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday have the same time 
so that's great 
starts at six and comes off at eight 
so that is how to set your Vaillant boiler remote control timer program for a regular on off time in the morning and evening from Monday through to Sunday 
if you want to change any of the individual days - or Monday to Friday - or have something different at the weekend - you can do exactly the same thing by going into the menus for Saturday and Sunday for instance 
Monday to Friday 
or any of the individual days of the week 
and I hope you managed to get your boiler going 
say hi in the comments 
it'll be lovely to hear from you 
and if you're feeling even kinder I’m trying to get this channel to 1000 subscribers 
you don't have to watch any of my videos ever again but if you hit the subscribe button you take us one step closer to YouTube paying us for these videos 
we really appreciate it 
we'll be able to buy some heat from YouTube! 
and good luck with staying warm with your Vaillant boiler remote control 
you can do this! you've got this!

Double jabbed & still got The Rona? what happened next part 2...



Part 2 of my Self-Isolation vlog... Still can't taste or smell anything, which means I can eat ANYTHING... and still getting phone calls from Test and Trace...

Double jabbed & still got The Rona? what happened next part 2...



SEE PART 1 HERE FIRST: https://youtu.be/JoTIveF_2NU

TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

Raw onion?
yeah sure why not 
yeah 
okay 
ready? 
go on
Hello it's day six since the uh - let’s take this off
it's day six since the symptoms of the Rona came to visit me 
did the... the test this morning I don't know if you can see it there but the... 
the second line is really faint 
I mean it's barely coming through 
The self isolation is really really starting to hit 
I noticed - so I made a video - just bringing you up to speed - I tested positive for the Rona and I released this video here um where it shows everything 
where I lost my taste and smell and then took the family to a PCR test which was stupid because they were all negative 
there we are all in the car breathing in my air 
luckily they're all still negative and as you can see I took the test this morning and the second line is really really faded now 
you've got to really hold it up to the light to see that second line 
so this morning I’m feeling less delicate but I’m just feeling really uh fatigued and I’ve got a feeling that tiredness is... it's just from not moving 
it's from not being out and about because of the self-isolation 
so look I’ll put it on the screen now 
I’ve done 14 steps today 
these are the steps that my phone has measured and you can see right here on the Monday there I am like a good’un nearly hitting the 10k steps and then plummet 
absolutely nothing all week and that's got to take a toll 
I mean obviously I’m not a GP or a medical person in any sense but even I can see that even if you're super fit and healthy and have no symptoms of the Rona... 
if you're gonna just be indoors and not move for two weeks that's gonna take an incredible toll on your body and looking at these steps I have no idea how I’m doing 1300 steps a day by just moving between the bathroom and the bedroom 
I think it's just pacing up and down with the camera like this 
I’m also going around the house with a mask on and everywhere I go I’m [COUGH] excuse me 
I’m sanitizing... I’m wiping things down as I’m using them 
honestly it's like going around your house like a high-end burglar from a heist movie 
you know you're just constantly wiping all elements of your trace from your own home 
It’s not a good way to live 
and probably the... the hardest thing at the moment for anyone who's been through this you'll know this but the ah the... the taste and the smell 
I just miss the taste and the smell so much 
I was going to film myself eating a raw onion and maybe some of Casper’s dog food 
should we do it? 
should we do it? I’ll get my son to film it
how should I do this 
sorry about the noise in the background but my poor long-suffering wife is mowing the garden 
I think you should just chop it into quarters and then eat it like um oranges 
can you literally not taste a thing? 
I literally can't taste a thing 
well this is the test
I can't smell it 
oh that'd be really weird because you just can't taste anything 
right 
I kind of rather not to taste anything because then I could like eat lots of healthy stuff can I? 
right well that's what I thought 
I could eat whatever I want 
this is gonna test whether it would work or not 
should I do it 
sure why not 
uh yeah sure why not 
yeah okay ready? 
go on
Right you can't taste that! 
really? 
it feels really tingly 
we need lights on in here because the quality is quite bad 
so I’ve just done that for nothing?! 
because my phone doesn't work well in the dark
this is wrong the taste is coming back! 
I can taste it! 
I can really taste it now! 
so did your covidjust stop the second you did that?
It’s brought back my taste!
What have you done?
You’re so stupid!
It’s brought back the taste of onion
Shall I eat dog food?
Sure, there’s some fresh stuff down there
he's probably put his mouth in that and he's got a littlecovid
[DOG COUGHING]
he has! 
I’ll probably catch the dog... get dogCovid
So I can't taste it, but it doesn't feel good 
they feel like soggy biscuits 
that's because he's put... he’s licked it all 
You disgusting person! 
Oh look the dogs running over 
He wants some 
I’m sorry Casper I was eating... I was eating your dinner
He gets so mad if you did that 
right so here's what I’ve learned if you've lost your taste and smell eat raw onion because it will cut through 
do you think yourcovid just literally just stopped  now

instantly went away the second you eat an onion 
but theCovid just went No, I’m out of here you can get taste and smell back, we’re off!
I’m calling on behalf of the NHS Track and trace
Hiya I’m calling to talk about your self-isolation
how have you been feeling 
uh delicate and bit rough but good thanks 
oh good oh sorry not good but 
no it is! 
you're right it's fantastic 
I can walk around I can't taste anything still 
I just tasted a little bit 
I’m very grateful thank you 
and can I confirm you’re self-isolating 
I am 
perfect 
because I’m just really interested and I’m extremely bored as well because I’m I’m indoors but do you phone people can you... and you can you tell if they're not self-isolating 
is it if you ever phone someone it's like really obvious that they're out somewhere?
yeah yeah of course but um because we could tell by like you can hear the cars it might be in the garden sometimes you see the radio on their car and like beeping like you can completely tell they’re in a car
yeah we just have to go from what you say to be honest because we haven't got a camera 
we can't really see where you are
yeah what would you because I’ve been asking this everyone who's phoned me 
what what would you do at one minute past midnight on your first day of freedom 
I’m looking for ideas
at midnight?
that's a good pub
Some open late don't they 
yeah well it's better than my idea 
I think it's gonna be a BP garage 
that's the only place that's open around here 
oh yeah there you go, bring a little speaker
thank you so much for your time today and thank you so much for self-isolating and I hope you have a lovely day 
oh you too thank you for the call appreciate your work 
it's okay thank you thank you bye 
didn't mean to hang up so abruptly there 
can you please help my daddy get 1000 subscribers 
just click on his face, thanks bye! how was that

TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

hello I’m Neil and I just scored a positive result!
Ta-daah!
what do I win 
oh man it feels like um really bad man flu and uh I’ve not been vlogging after 
- this is called the dad delivers vlog where we try to be happy with what we've already got and according to this lateral flow test I’ve got I might have got something 
I’ve not been vlogging very much and maybe this is the time to uh to get back into the vlog 
so I had a negative result two days ago 
and then a negative result yesterday 
and then last night I was just - I just I was cooking for a change and I just suddenly lost all sense of taste and smell 
did a test that was negative uh one of these 
woke up this morning and thought I’d give it another test and and this is how it's come up 
it was a bit of a shock to see that first stripe popping up 
it popped up instantly 
so I just feel really blocked up like I don't want to be in my own body 
it's man flu 
basically I’ve tested positive for man flu 19 
when I lost my taste and smell I booked an appointment for the PCR test site this morning 
and now we're going as a family! 
yeah fun time dad 
fun time 
you gotta be positive
yeah 
so we're all on our way now to a family trip to the PCR centre
Ray! 
Reh!
and what I don't understand and clearly I’m not an expert but I’ve got one of the symptoms 
I’ve had a positive lateral flow test and yet the government advice is that all of you you don't have to self-isolate at all 
you can still go to school! 
I... I don't quite understand 
so just to add to the sense of drama and anticipation... there's a fire drill at one of the businesses at the business park 
as well as this Threads-like... we got an audience! 
that's not good 
there are too many yeah yeah there are too many hi-vis vests!
Just one?
um there's four of us actually 
I’ll go on the number plate because there's so many
Who wants hand sanitizer? 
oh okay 
so I touched... the swab touched my tongue I’m going to get another one 
we've got the uh the hazard lights are on but no one's coming yet 
it's quite busy
I dont know why you cant open the window - it’s ridiculous
There’s nobody here and we're passing it around amongst others
can we turn this off now?
Do you want to film the people going back 
and these are the people going back from their fire drill back to their work
MUM: Ah, thank you for checking me out!
that's like school I’d literally do the exact same
And they’re all walking past while Mum’s got a swab up her nose! 
they're all looking at you 
a couple of people just like... just pointed he's just pointed
he's saying “look, we might have a fire drill...” and look I’m gonna have to... 
Look we're being filmed! he's talking to his friend he's like “look we're being filmed!” 
Look there's a old lady sticking a thing up her nose look look 
he's like oh huh
okay you take the papers
oh Neil they’ve got to go together
they havent!
So that went well! 
open the windows now 
so if you haven't got it, being in a car with the windows wound up probably isn't going to help.
Yeah dont go with the one who tested positive
right 
I think I preferred the walk-in one we went to do you remember?
which one did you prefer 
I dont care
oh 
I like the other one because it looked really bleak and it was like um pylon there and nobody else there 
it's like some kind of zombie apocalypse thing situation
it could not have made it look more bleak 
it's time now to get our results!
hello it's day two of the vlog and the covid-ness the Rona-ness 
I thought the video would end right here with me showing you my my my results which I’ve got on screen there 
yep it's positive 
the rest of the family are all bizarrely negative and looking over the footage from yesterday I’m a bit shocked 
we weren't really thinking straight 
so I had a positive test result the family had negative test results 
why we... why are we getting into a car and being in an enclosed space for an hour 
I hadn't quite thought that through 
I think we just all assumed that we all had it 
anyway so this morning it's confirmed that the rest of the family - my kids my long-suffering wife are negative - and I’m positive 
what I wasn't expecting was the wave of administration that you've got to do now 
probably at a time when you're not feeling great as well but it's got to be done 
but it's asking me questions like have I had a vaccine 
it's like you're the NHS! 
you've got you've got my details! so I’m answering these questions for things that I’d hope the NHS system would already know 
so anyway vaccine it's now asking me for the date of my first dose 
why am I putting this information in when the NHS is the organization that arranged the vaccine for me so I don't understand why as part of this test and trace I’ve got to put in information that the NHS you'd think would already know 
anyway let's stick with it try and stay positive
yeah 
what... what type of vaccine did you have 
you you gave it to me! 
I think the hardest thing with doing this vlog apart from feeling a bit rough or very rough um I’m trying to not get angry about the system and it takes a bit of energy to keep things in perspective 
so now I’m walking around the house wearing a face mask
hello day three and I’m basically locked in the bedroom now 
the rest of the family are going about their lives in their negativity 
I’m still staying positive but I’m gonna find out if I am actually positive still 
I wanted to see if a lateral flow test would show uh what it would show 
time to jam one of these up my hooter 
I’ve still got - you probably can't see it - but I’ve still got really red eyes really ah pink pink eye
[SNEEZING]
the line that shows that you're positive is taking a while to emerge and when I when I took it two days ago it just appeared instantly 
but I thought it was quite interesting that you know maybe it's a sign that I’m slightly less infectious? I don't know? 
the lines come through but it took a while it's so much fainter than my first test can I find my first test I look at the difference 
so that was when I first noticed the morning after my symptoms on day three 
the line... the line's fainter I don't know if that means anything 
I think the best way to describe the feeling at the moment is it's delicate 
hello so it's day four and um the hardest part is is the taste and smell it's oh sorry I’ve got my got my lunch 
so this is my lunch 
I can literally eat anything at the moment because I can't taste a thing and my sense of smell isn't as good as young casper here 
casper's got a cough too! 
he's had it the whole time that um the family have
[DOG COUGHING]
just a bit of a coincidence do you think do you think you've got The Rona? 
so he's just here for the for the frankfurters which I can't taste I should um try to make money from this somehow and write a cookbook 
“what to eat when you're down with The Rona” because basically that's a recipe book where you could put in literally anything 
these are really strong tasting but I can't sense a thing
it's day five and I can see I can see that second line emerging 
hey casper
They shut the door before I could see him!
Casper!
good luck at the football! who are you playing today?
Oh, a friendly match!
yeah it's definitely taking longer each day for the second line to emerge but the second line is definitely emerging 
I’ll line it up along with the... the other ones
so that's my little collection 
my son had a go at making one to see if he could get out of school it was almost convincing but not quite 
last night I got bored in my confinement so I thought I could use the natural flow test for some kind of creative or artistic project 
I think we've all tried this right?
 the the The Rona domino rally action alley? 
I don't know if I can keep this going for five days 
I’m starting to not take the confinement not very well 
I really really miss going somewhere I just missed I miss going to the lidl 
I miss just pointlessly wandering around with a podcast 
I need to plan something put in the comments where you think I should go and maybe I could actually do one of them 
hello hello hello hi can I speak to Neil Mossey please? 
speaking 
hi Neil my name's Laila I’m just calling on behalf of the NHS test and trace 
just a give you a quick call to check up on you and talk about your self isolation and that this call is being recorded for training and quality purposes 
are you free to talk right now 
I am so we're both aware that this call is being recorded then and that's okay 
Yes sir that’s fine 
So you're okay with it?
how are you feeling today Neil bit rough but good thank you for asking and can I just confirm that you are intending to continue to self isolate 
I’m in my bedroom now 
I’m sick of it 
okay perfect um so that's really it before I go I just need to remind you that you do need to remain in self isolation for ten days after the date that you developed symptoms or tested positive even if you were showing no symptoms as it is a legal requirement now for you to stay at home and self isolate which I already know that you're doing so that's not a problem 
I just want to say thank you for your time today Neil and of course with self isolating we know that you're having to make a sacrifice so stay at home during this time however you are helping stop the spread of the virus so thank you so much 
before I end the call are you clear about everything I have discussed with you today 
I’m not can I just ask a question please 
do you have any ideas of where I could go at one minute past midnight
what would you... where would you go where would you go on your first minute of freedom from the house with a family driving you nuts and avoiding you 
isn't that... it’s up to you sir!
I don’t know a bar, a club, whatever
that sounds good I was gonna - I was gonna go tesco express but your idea sounds better!
In the car park. Enjoy it there.
maybe mcdonald's drive through I don't know 
Any other questions?
no that's uh really helpful thank you and can I also ask, don't... 
forgive me you don't have to answer this... but your job is to to basically call and give this reminder?
so we make isolation follow-up calls yes sir on the fourth day of isolation on the seventh day of isolation and on the 10th day of isolation 
just to check up on the individual 
understood understood understood 
So the next call will be on day seven 
yeah on the 19th sir 
ah wonderful that's really interesting thank you so much 
it's okay sir, I hope you have a nice day 
you too - thank you thank you bye bye - thank you for your work 
so the official advice... the OFFICIAL advice from test and trace themselves is that they would go to a bar - you don't have to do this it's up to you - but they would go to a club or bar one minute past midnight 
ah what's it gonna be 
is it gonna be on day 10 minute one, tesco express or the NHS test and trace callers club and bar 
where would you go
I’m going stir crazy I’ve lost it 
wanna know what happens next it's all right here on this video as soon as I put it up thanks even more for subscribing - I’m trying to get to the 1000 to get paid for this so thank you so much and I hope you don't get this 
can you please help my daddy get 1000 subscribers just click on his face, thanks bye! how was that

Time to permanently put a hole in my desk
[CUTTING NOISE]
Right, it’s come out clean, fantastic!
Hello it's an exciting day here at the happy hut 
I’m going to be fitting this - USB port and headphone jack 
I’m actually going to be fitting it to my new IKEA Skarsta standing desk 
This is what the port looks like 
It has three USB ports and a mic jack and a headphone jack and this is going to save me so much time - it's got a USB card reader and a micro SD card reader 
It comes with like a well with spaghetti underneath and on the other end we have a USB 2.0 plug, microphone and headphone jack 
3.5 mm jacks 
This is my IKEA Skarsta standing desk and I’ve got it raised to quite a high level 
It can probably go up even further but I just wanted to get it in shot, so you could see I’ve marked this spot here 
This is where I want the USB port to be 
I’ve marked it out - I’ve made it 10 centimetres in and 10 centimetres from the side and I’ve planned it so that it doesn't hit anything underneath?
Fingers crossed 
I’ve got uh Derek drill here 
We're going to cut into this so first I’m going to drill a pilot hole so here it goes 
Okay here goes nothing - here goes defacing my brand new IKEA desk 
So that's the pilot hole 
I can now use this as a pilot hole for this round teeth cutter 
I never know - I’ve taken out the ones in the middle - I never know if you're supposed to leave these in to help grind away or whether to just leave the outer one as a clean hole say... say something in the comments if you know one way or the other 
It'll be too late for me! 
Time to permanently put a hole in my desk
I hate this moment here we go
[DRILLING NOISES]
Alright it’s come out clean - fantastic 
So I now have a hole in my IKEA Skarsta desk so I can take this away now but this is what it looks like inside the Skarsta desk it’s...
it's like corrugated cardboard so that's - I wasn't expecting that 
So I’ll just vacuum it out 
Now I have a really big problem 
The blade that I used was 5.5cm but the hole is six centimetres because it it's just that little bit too small but if I do it with a knife it's going to be really super messy 
I don't know what to do this blade is too big I think what I’m going to do is go to the hardware store and buy more stuff
Okay so I’ve gone to the hardware store in town and I looked everywhere and look there is a space for the hole cutter set and they don't have any - but the measurements looked like they were slightly too small or slightly too big anyway so now I’m going to go home and see if I can use a knife 
I’m gonna use this knife I am going to mark out how much extra I need by just drawing around it there so now I need to cut out pretty much that much with the knife and the very high quality IKEA desk is cutting really easily
[MUSIC]
So let's try that - I’ll push the holder in - wow it's perfect fit 
great stuff 
so obviously that looks a lot more tidier than that 
I’ll rub out my pencil marks there that looks really smart and then we can feed the cables down into the desk
[MUSIC]
Perfect look at this this looks so good you can twist it to any orientation you want 
I might have it facing towards me slightly and I’m not going to be using this but you can feed cables any loose cables like mouse cables or keyboard cables into the desk and it just comes out the other side so what I need to do now is to plug these into my computer that's lashed under the desk and that is a really nice setup I think 
I’ll just try it out now with my urbanears headphones but you can get this desk headphone jack and USB port in the link in the description down below 
I’ll throw it out of shot for one last time and... but let's give this a try so this is what it looks like and it is looking pretty darn fine and pretty darn flush as well 
so there are three USB ports let's try one of those 
we also have micro SD card slot and an SD card slot there 
and then I’ll plug in my headphone socket there we go 
But that is looking pretty darn good 
I’m really really pleased with that and the cables that come attached to it feel pretty substantial too so don't forget the link in the description 
Thanks for watching and right here is some other stuff that I’m doing on YouTube
