Finished work tonight and went straight into my night walk – I’ve just come back and all I can say is that it was one heck of a work out. My original goal was to do 17.4 but I decided to go all the way and complete 23.2km which took around 3 hours and 45…

Today was fairly busy but the last 4 hours or so were nice because I was dealing with emails and other non-phone related tasks then around an hour before finishing it started pouring down with rain along with a health dose of wind. I decided because of that change in the weather I would have…

Yesterday I went down to my local computer outlet to help mum purchase a few much needed items and while I was down there I had a look at what was on offer in the way of customer built computer. I was having a look at the Dell desktop as outlined in a previous post…

I started the day off with an early start with the courier coming to pick up the computer I had just sold – so much easier to get a courier to pick it up rather than trying to find some way to get down to the place where the courier company operates. After it being…

Last night I went for a small walk but tonight it was raining, then it would stop then it would suddenly start raining again – I’ve learnt my lesson from last time and that is to not go out and risk getting stuck in a downpour given that I got absolutely drenched and it took…

There appears to be one constant in life and that is the lousy reliability of synchronising over wifi – it never worked when I had a Mac and it appears with the Phone Link that has continued. On a good side, hooking up the phone via a USB-C cable to my laptop and then dragging/dropping…
