The Mrantz unit again, only drawback is lack of wi-fi for internet radio, but it’s a1

Good on you, after if YOU can’t spell or have awareness of basic grammar, what hope is there for your pupils? Oh no wait, there’s an education minister you can blame for you being useless.

OP at home with different login
Employer is univeristy. other skills include Unix (solaris) – check, wintel and sun server hardware – check, lan/wan networking – super check with cisco ios as a bonus, programming languages mentioned – sort of check as in familiar with oop theory and code reusability, ms-sql – enterprise class check. Job is management, head of IT, so it’s more likley that a working knowledge of high performance and mass storage devices is what’s needed rather than being able to do day to day management.

EDIT – ok with admitting to being weak in an area, not so with knowing nothing

Thought about a film camera?

A song that made me wonder for years just what a “dance settee” was.

As in
“Dance, dance wherever you may be
For I am the lord of the dance settee”

If you ever do Scapa Flow, try and make a point of going on the block ships. I never fancied the German ships – too deep for me, but had a chance of going on a block ship (sunk to try and stop the germans getting between the islands to the east of the Flow) – brilliant – shallow, excellent vis, plenty wildlife.

My mum uses the library a lot. Last I knew of it she couldn’t use Kindle to borrow as it wasn’t supported. .epub is supported, so does it have to Kindle?

Right now, I’ve got a picture in my head. It’s a view froma village over a river estuary. It needs the right sunset and, being a wide angle picture with little chance of anything happening to provide foreground interest, it needs some detail in the sky. Not overcast, and not a clear day, but a few scattered, intresting clouds. Black and white film pic, so a red filter to add some contrast in the sky
So what?
So I’m thinking about this picture. I know what I want and how I want it. That’s what you need to do, Think and plan the pictures. seeing something and grabbing the shot rarely works until you’ve learned to plan, because when you plan, you know what you want. That sunset coud have been brilliant, and you should be able to work out why it shoud have been and why it isn’t. So when yoou’re going about your day, always be looking – you know what, that sunset would have been excellent from here – and when it happens, grab the bag and go.
Also, keep taking pictures – don’t just say that#s crap, say that#s crap becasue and it would be better if.. And if you’re ;looking at other folks pics, and they’re good, look carefully and understand that they’re good because..

Sorry, uber ramble.

There was an MP being interviewed, who had been helping, and the interviewer said “there’s blood on your shirt”, the bloke looked at him, silent, visibly close to losing control, then just said “it’s not mine”. How he kept his composure I honestly don’t know;

Jim Murphy, former Secretary of State for Scotland was driving past as it happened, jumped out the car and rushed in to help. I heard the interview on the radio this morning and, although you could tell he was shaken, that “blood on your shirt” bit really was a stopper.

hhhhhhmmmmmmmmm

I saw them acouple times when I lived in Aberdeenshire, but the best was east of Dundee when the show covered pretty the whole sky. You need a clear sky and best to be away from lights. Pick up a planishere (Amazon, £10 or so) and a torch. Get some large aperture (7×50 or so) if the budget extends to it, then wander off on a clear night and enjoy the night sky. Don’t get too hooked on the need to see the horizon, there’s plenty of sky, but I wouldn’t be going to Pitlochry – bit too touristy.

Anyone tried making their own sausages?

yup = had a hand operated sausage stuffer (50p charity shop) which was guff, then got the sausage making attachment for my Kenwood Chef which, once you get the hang of the speed at which the sausages come out was awesome.
Great fun, but living near a nationally recognised multi award winning sausage making champion (who does let me have causings pretty cheap right enough) means I buy more tahn make.
