We met up with David and Val and had a great meal at the Montagu Arms in Barnwell, near Oundle. I swear their ‘Monty Pie’ is getting bigger!!!
We also gave them a small pressy by way of a thank-you for alerting us to the fact that we might be paying too much Council Tax. We were, and we received a generous refund for ten years of overpayment. The pressy was the ‘iRec’ – a small device that allows recording from any AV device (like a TV or DVD player) straight to the iPOD. It took a bit of setting up, especially the software part for their PC and we also discovered that they’ll need a new TV as the current one doesn’t have the right sockets on the back. Still, we managed to record straight from DVD to iPOD as part of the experimentation!
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
