Thankyou Mum..

thankyou so much for my lovely card which arrived today.
It was such a pleasure to have you with us and to be able to be with you again in Thame after Birdy's 50th at he Spread Eagle in Thame.

We're all waiting to hear what you got up to on your trip around the old homestead and down there in Kent with the Fincher clan.
Did you notice the skip and new extension at number 77 by the way?

I've been busy over the last couple of days updating one of my ebay bargains.. I wanted internet access in the loft here (my studio-to-be) without climbing the ladder up and down one handed with my fancy 15" powerbook. So I bought an old G3 series powerbook (circa 1998) for £20 off ebay and got it working with OS X just now (hurrah) and have succeeded in getting it to run wifi too!
..so I'm feeling very buzzy!

Gemm's Pismo G3 powerbook (ebay Xmas pressie) needed a bigger hard drive to get her photos and music on. Fortunately I picked up a 60gb hard drive (ebay) and some more ram (512mb) for her birthday so I fitted the 12gb out of her machine into my PDQ. The next challenge should I choose to accept it is to get this one running Tiger too!

We've been watching breakfast telly and there's news of a new MEGATRAIN service from London to Portsmouth and Southampton off-peak for a pound(£1)... you need to book on line though so there's one for Nic and Jen to get organised for their trip in June and save a few quid perhaps.

Dad's very pleased (sniff) nay delighted with his birthday print from Julian's new and improved International art portal.. Where's mine? What is it of?
We want to see some photos Dad off your new Praktika camera. How did you get on with the chip? You prolly need a USB chip reader now so get down to Maplins. That Jessops one I'll have back as that's only for flash cards.
Right the bathrooms free so time for ablutions... these late nights are starting to bite!
