Thanks tomos, wraith808 and mouser for the encouragement :), I've been looking around silently for some time but at 55 that's not easy. But for this job I've been asked if I would be interested to join, and I'm quite sure I'm gonna like it very much.
Thanks x16wda for enlightning us with your alarmclock selection process, it is very helpful :up:

I'll carefully toss in the 'gadget' I bought yesterday: A VW Golf

Golf and a new job… clearly this will be a management role.
Good luck!

Tip: Battery covers are often the first bit to "fail" on small DC appliances that might otherwise work just fine. I found that Blue Tack placed strategically on the inside of the cover is unobtrusive and can sometimes perform better than elastic bands or tape, and it isn't messy and doesn't "break" - one may just need to "readjust" it every now and then.
Don't use fake/copy or non-Blue Tack brand though - from experience, they tend to dry up and go hard, losing their flexible and sticky characteristics.
4wd:
It'll be the weekend sometime so anyway a new phone: Moto G5+ (XT1685 APAC version) 4GB/32GB, NFC, Dual SIM and μSD, 4k UHD and Slo-mo video, etc.

Loses the compass and BeiDou GPS receiver that the Redmi Note 2 had but at least it's not a f'n MTK chipset.
Now to unlock the bootloader :D
