Simple Tags

Not sure how tags work so I have installed “Simple Tags” plugin to see if I can make sense of them. I should then end up with a useful tag cloud. It has features that allow you to add tage words and then auto-tag the whole content of your blog.

Penn Street

penn-street-church

Went for a walk round Penn Wood and Penn House. House looks like it has a lot of history there is a large carved wooden gate, and there was a statue of a woman with a dog in the large garden. Plenty of evidence of a large gardens was the Rhododendrons that have invaded the woods. Saw two buzzards one seemed to be chasing a kestrel high into the sky. Penn Wood where we ended the walk is supposed to be a large brambling roost. We hardly saw a dicky bird!

Luton Ferrari

They are raffling off a Ferrari at Luton airport. I wonder what the chances of winning are? Off to Gilford Road with Shirley and Vanessa.

The Lee again

Quick walk after a game of squash this morning. Not many birds about except in a garden in Ballinger. Picture is one of the two churches in The Lee.

Windows 7 (32bit)

windows7

Got it working. Windows 7 (32bit) works with Juniper network connect.

However it does not seem to work well with Norton 360, Network connect connects but the whole machine locks up when you sign-out. Uninstalling Norton 360 fixes the issue.
I will have to look for some other anti-virus solution.

Windows 7 beta

windows7-beta

Downloaded and installed the 64bit version of Windows 7. It was a doddle to install, with two reboots. All seems to work OK and pretty responsive.
Pretty much the same as Vista but, maybe because I am used to Vista, it seems more intuitive, things were easy to find and did what you wanted.
Could not get Juniper Network Connect to work so will try 32bit version before giving up.

The Old Swan, Swan Bottom

the-old-swan

Walked starting and ending at the Old Swan. Yellowhammer then saw a large flock Redwing and Fieldfare feeding in a field. They were spooked by a Sparrowhawk. Later saw a couple of Crows. As we got close to The Lee, saw 20ish Meadow Pipit in a field with horse and possible a couple of Mistle Thrush. Ended the walk with a pint of Weary Banker (The Marlow Brewery), and a Veggie burger and chips, mine Mexican style. Beer was excellent nice light real ale. Burgers were great. (4 YTD 55)

Delayed at Luton

Due to go to Northern Ireland today, but the plane is delayed, by 35 minutes, hence the blog entry! Tried to download windows v7 recently but despite all the hype the servers are not responding. Found an interesting idea from Microsoft, “Tags”, which are essentially colour bar codes. The colour allows more bits to be packed in. They provide examples for you to create could be used to identify products. It also never crossed my mind before you could ask someone to email in a photo of a product label which could be used to log a warranty call. Obviously this would work with any type of bar code.
