Screen Saver

Today I learned how to ‘play’ my screen saver. It’s the kelp forest and the diver, drone, or camera moves slowly through it. This is the few seconds before I start the day.

Then I hit ENTER on my password and I have to live with whatever area it stops at. For a while all I could see all day was huge swags of kelp behind all my directories.

Got sick of the boring view. Went through all the other available screen savers, didn’t like any of them. Re installed the kelp forest.

This morning I thought to view the whole loop. Duh, people will be saying. I hit ENTER at a place I liked and hey presto … a whole new and different wallpaper. I’ve got fish now, swimming between the folders.

Fish Pond is Leaking!

Hoping to stop a flood

This morning early, everything OK, fed the fish and they loved their new food. Probably hungry.

Little time later, an hour, noticed water level descending quite fast from yesterday when I replaced about 3 litres.

Checked around. Oh no!

A lot of water creeping over the tiles to the balcony drop off.

Seepage not only from underneath … but also from the side! Ceramic side! Meant to be water-proof!

Every time I dried it off, couple of minutes later it’s wet again. Condensation? I don’t know how that works.

But started bailing into hopefully still waterproof plastic crate.

Transferred two fish so far …
