erg#7


Not a bad result 14seconds slower than last Sundays PB. Mildly disappointed but I think I started off too hard and too fast. 

Did a nice 6 minute warm up starting slow and finishing off with some 10 to 20 second bursts.

Then a little stretching.  Got the music organised and got going.  I think I went out a little hard and fast compared to last week where there was a bit of a slower start and built into it. 

Happy with overall fitness as I got a 34:51 pb at park run yesterday.

Haier Dishwasher

 We have a Haier Dishwasher that has developed a problem of not draining.
 model hdw13v1w1

PROBLEM
Error Code displayed = A20 ==> Blockage in the drain
Checked that the sink is draining so it's not in our plumbing.
In the end, the drain hose was cracked and sending water into the bottom of the dishwasher.  The dishwasher detected water in the bilge and stopped and displayed an error.
SOLUTION - Replaced the hose (with an after market one)
CAUSE - Poor design (See below)

LEARNING - HOW TO DISASSEMBLE 

 On Floor, Tip onto Right Hand Side
Remove one screw in the base.  Near the back.  Not the two in the middle.
Leaver off the base

In general no point in removing the kick plate. 

 

SERVICE MODE
Cant work that out

REPLACE DRAIN HOSE

ERROR 

A10 = Water fill issue - Check tap on and pipe not kinked. 

A20 = drainage failure or overfill issue, meaning the machine cannot pump water out properly. To resolve this, you need to clear potential blockages from the filter, drain pump, and waste hose 

 

REMOVE KICK PLATE
Needed table knives or flat blade screw drivers to lever up plastic tabs.
Two screws on cor-flute thing.

Dont remove in future - Nothing to see

Optus data usage error

 Optus email me that I have used 100% of my 245GB shared data.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1 Email Advice


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2 And it claims I have used all this data and slowed speed.

 

 

 


 3 BUT when I check the phone usage - Only 11GB

 


 4 then I check the mobile broadband and it says 46.3GB used but it also says 234.1GB used - So confusing

Cleveland Parkrun

Cleveland parkrun results for event #627. Your time was 00:35:58.
Marginally slower than
 9 May 2026 00:35:04.
Weight stuck at 101kg maybe a little higher after last night's cake. 


Even though the time was a little slower than last week, I felt good during the run. Some spring in my legs. There was a lot of surface water on and off the track. It felt like whoever engineered the playing field failed drainage studies. I had a nice warm up running across the ovals to the toilet. By the time I returned, my shoes were sodden.

Mel came first. 
Phoebe had a rest with a sore throat 
Graham walked

After the run we had breakfast with Graham and Mel. I had a naughty eggs Benny.
