Actually install Home Assistant container image on Raspberry Pi 5
My understanding is you shouldn't use linuxserver's Home Assistant image as this is only "HA Core", so you can never use addons. Maybe you don't need them now, maybe you do, but locking yourself in seems poor.

A beautiful evening going wrong?
It's valentines night & once again we're dog sitting so my parents can see Olive HAPPY BIRTHDAY OLIVE (my niece their granddaughter) on her birthday, so how to make it special?
As payment for the dog sitting, Dad provides the wine. So a nice red & home cooked roast, since I'm here to cook it, I thought, or so was the plan!
I am on XKCD
Well, sort of. I suspect a lot of geeks have experiences like this, though we don't normally get photoed in the act.

New House - Huzzah
Well, We have again bought a house :-) Just waiting for paperwork, 3 bedrooms, 2 reception rooms as well as a separate heated BAR, yes brick built Bar. There is plenty of scope for development in the garden, for example it doesn't yet have a pond which we need to show off Grandpa! When we get dates we will update you all.
