Thought I would time my walk home and get some timings for a few landmarks on the way. My previous times have been arounf 35 minutes. Work 0:00 28:50 Canal bridge 1 4:30 24:20 Canal bridge 2 11:00 17:50 A41 bridge 30 16:30 12:20 Queens Mead 21:37 7:13 Village Hall 24:14 4:36 Home 28:50 0:00  Wing mirror Well we are off to Tess + Roger’s wedding. Congratulations guys. Unfortunately that involves a rather slow journey down the A40 in the rain. We keep being passed by the same cyclists when the traffic lights change. Our previous feelings of sympathy for their damp plight have been replaced by those of envy as they are actually getting somewhere. Anyway that’s enough about the weather, let’s discuss mobile communication devices. Helen says she does not need a new mobile phone, yet often in the car the complaint is she would like to be able to browse the Internet, something that her wind up phone does not do. There appear to be two front runners; the I Phone or an Android phone [ed. I dunno the difference TBH - Helen]. The I Phone scores for its slick UI, I Tunes capabilities and Apple design. On the other hand, the Android has a slide out full keyboard, is open source and backed by Google. Decisions, decisions, guess its up to Helen. Might be good if she turns the bloody thing on too.  5 spot burnet There is a local nature reserve near where I live called Millhoppers. It is owned by the Butteryfly Conservation society. I went out for a spin on the bike this afternoon and spend a little while taking in the nature there. Here is a link to the website. |
