James Follett

So the other day I managed to read a peice of work by James Follett that I had never read. It cost me some 2 quid but I think that it was worth it. There now is very little published work of James's that I have not read. Sadly I don't think that there is much unpublished work to find as James was never very prolific as a writer which is sad as a lot of his work was a good read. What is also sad is that a lot of his work has not aged and so if he had been more productive far more of his work would have been seen and enjoyed by more people. Sadly the only way you can see and read his work is to download it from Amazon. The good news is that it appears that most of his work is available as kindle books which is good, dare I say it but they are also cheaper than when they were in paperback.

Last night of the proms

So last night on the television i watched the last night of the proms and it was rather good to see that everyone seemed to enjoy it. It is also a bit sad as it means that winter is coming.

Websites

So I have finally got all my website domains sorted out it has taken rather a long time but they are now all mine and all working which is good as it has not been like that for some time. In all it has taken some 2 years for the domains to be sorted out but the good news is that they are now all working as i want them.

Lie in

I had a lie in today but it was not your normal kind of lie in as i had it at 3 in the morning as i could not sleep. So I now find myself in the position of being very tired but wide awake which is not something I want.

Updates to the websites

So we have just had a bank holiday here and I think you can guess what the weather was like. So that gave me some free time to have a play on my websites. The result was that I have managed to update the sites that I own.

For some of the sites it turns out that I have not updated them for more than two years which was a surprise to me, the good thing is that I have updated them.

Darkness

Just a note to me that it is now starting to get noticeably darker in the evening

Blue

Finally some blue sky which is a bit of a change here as this is something that we have not seen for some time now.

Damp

So it's a bit damp today so far which is a bit of a surprise as at this time of year it's supposed to be warm or even hot but that's the weather for you here in the UK.

Sad news

Sad news about the air crash at shoream air show. I have just heard that at least seven people have died it appears that the plane came down on the a27 road which runs to the side of the airport.

I suspect that in the next few days we will sadly find out how many more people were killed and who they were. The thing that I find frightening about it is that the people in the cars driving along the road had no idea what was about to happen to them.

Made something

So I have made something and have put it on u tube it's a tune that I wrote today that I happen to think is rather good so have a look at my page 

Traction kite

I wanted to have a go at flying my big ozone kite but as usual the weather is not playing fair as there is no wind which does make it rather hard to fly the kite.

Yesterday

So yesterday for the first time in a while i saw some actual blue sky which was nice, we have had here a lot of grey clouds and it's amazing just how quick you can miss the blue sky.

Very wet

So the last few days it has been rather wet I am not sure if this is normal weather for this time of year or not but all I can tell you is that it's wet.

Cool

Just a bit cool here this morning which is a bit of a surprise.

Reading

So what am I reading at this time you may ask yourself and the answer is that I am reading a book of short stories that have all been collected into one volume. Its an ebook that cost me a whole 72 pence but I have to say that I think it's worth that money as most of the stories have been very good.

Dark

I'm starting to notice that it is getting darker in the morning than I remember from last week, i suppose that I should not be all that surprised at this turn of events as we are on the run down to winter.

Stupid question

My stupid question of the day is this 

Why or how does hair on your legs know when to stop growing?

I don't know the answer to this question.

Lazy weekend

So had a lazy weekend this weekend which was nice but I think the wife had an even more lazy weekend as I am sure that she did not move very far from the settee all weekend, she mainly spent her time reading her iPad.

Fosters

Trying a Fosters flavoured larger this one is rum flavoured so far its not that bad May have to have another one just to check if its okay.

Create your own music

So I am creating my own music which is always fun and it's something that I like to do. I make lots of different types of music and it's for my fun. This time I have uploaded the tracks to u tube not that I expect to get a lot of plays of the tracks, but it is a great place to store them and it makes it easy to use and to find the tracks again in the future.
