Fancydress

Went to a fancy Dress party last night and I must admit that the amount of effort some of the folks went into was amazing, and I am glad that Donna and I tried are best, with our own costumes, which most of the folks seemed to like.

Clocks

Is it me?

I would seem with the clock shift and all that that entails that now days the number of clock I have to alter manually is getting less and less, as most clocks now change themselves, which is always good.

Summer time ends

So for us here in the UK summertime has now come to an end and so that means that the nights are now going to draw in, which I have to tell you I don't like much I think it's some 12 weeks before we start to gain daylight again.

Music

So I have been on holiday for the last couple of weeks and it's been great, but one of the things that I miss is music each and every day mainly because that type of music I like is not what Donna likes.

Dark

So it's eight in the morning and it's dark, which is a bit of a surprise as yesterday it was just so bright, and to that BST ends tonight, which means that I suppose winter is about to start.

Away

I have been away on hols in Folkstone Kent, as it is part of the UK that I not been to and also it's where some of Donna family came from.

The weather for most of the week was blue sky and sunny even if it was adjust a bit cold, but then in late October what else is it supposed to be.

Updates

So I have updated the iPad one to the new iOS 5 so far it has failed to copy all my music across.

Dirk Maggs Website

I finally had some time to do some work on the Dirk Maggs Website and I am pleased with what I managed to do mainly because I think that this version of the website is going to look much better than the old one when it's completed.

The only problem is I have no idea just how long it is going to take to complete.

Reading

I have just finished reading Danger UXB by James Owen, although this book does not go into real technical detail it was still a good read and I did learn something about the trouble and problems that bomb disposal had to cope with during WW2.

I still don't know even after reading this book how these guys where able to dig out bombs that might be some twenty feet in the ground not knowing if at any moment that the bomb might detonate.

There is apparently no memorial to the men of bomb disposal for any of the armed services, this I find hard to believe, according to the book some 750 men in bomb disposal lost their lives.

I also did not realise that there are still in London lots of UXB,s still in the ground and that the chemicals that make up explosives in time change their chemical properties and can become much more dangerous to make safe.

Back

So back from a nice holiday especially as the weather was for the time of year very hot, in fact according to the weathermen it was the hottest days in September.October for the last 100 years!

So happy or what!

A good break

Also having a Kelly's ice cream in North Cornwall in September when it's 28c is always good.

Apple

So it's time for apple to show the world what new stuff they want to sell you.

I have a feeling that what they announce will not be very different from what they are selling now, just a tweak here and there but it will basically will be the same stuff in new boxes.

On the software side I think They might give you stuff that other manufacturers have been providing for ages which will be good, provided that is if they are not to busy trying to sue someone else, its sad but they appear to be putting more effort into going to couture than producing new products or better products than the competion.

Dirk Maggs Website

There has been no more work on this as I have been away, enjoying the sunshine that we had here in the UK.

Holiday

So on holiday again, and yes I do need to be. It's nice just being able to do as much or as little as you please.

But for this bio day that s not so true as me and wife are not alone on this break as we have daughter and one of her friends along. Not that they are any trouble, so if the weather hold out it will be nice to walk along a breach or two and to just enjoy the sifts and sound of North Cornwall, as that is where I find myself.
