A few weeks ago, we set off for Yet Another COVID-19 Test (because we're participating in the ZOE study -- which, the official test sign-up now has an actual option for "I'm part of the study", apparently!) and eventually remembered, as we attempt to do, to run the smol pet robot fren, because it is Loud and it is nice to have it done while we are Elsewhere.

Unfortunately this frequently meets with deferred success, in that after a little while an app notification to the tune of "Endeavour's left wheel is stuck :(" pops up and there's nothing we can do about it until we get home, but sometimes it just works, and then... sometimes we end up in a Classic Pet Owner Situation.

The photo below is not staged. We got home and found it like that. It had got itself stuck, poor thing, and needed a rescue.

a Roomba that has got itself hopelessly tangled up in a roll of toilet paper

What I'm seeing: Endeavour recognised the toilet roll as a valuable commodity, and decided to wait further instructions rather than risk causing expensive damage.

It's gotten to the first step, of finding the toilet paper roll and unspooling some of it. Watch out that it doesn't progress to continuing until it's all on the floor and leaving it there...

Dammit, you nearly killed me! (I laughed so hard I choked).

Clearly Endeavour wants to grow up to be a labrador puppy. (See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwP1qgbCeTM for those who don't get the ref)

Just mentioned it to my sister when we spoke, she suggests it's trying to stockpile loo roll ahead of the lockdown we're likely headed for!
