Tango!!!

Project #2 while everyone's away is to try and get J's 1972 Fiat 500, Tango, running.
Flat battery charging right now :-)
Anyway, which do you prefer?
Old style Fiat 500 as above, or, new style?
Please don't say the new 500L as that's just obscene and doesn't count! :-)

Official Geek Day!

So, with the family away for a few days I thought I'd crack open a beer, open some crisps, put my feet up and.....upgrade my old PC to Windows 10! :-)
What a journey!
Anyway after several more beers, numerous issues and non-issues it's there and working away fine.
The non-issues?
After so many periods of just waiting for something to happen it took me half an hour to realise that the screenshot in the photo is merely a screensaver and disappears if you click the mouse :-)
The issues?
Jumbo graphics, dual screen mode with only one real screen (useless and utterly frustrating as every application was opening on the non-existent phantom monitor) and also low volume that only a dog could hear - anyway, all resolved :-)

Walking to Fife?

Ok, they're not, but with the tide being so far out, the local swimming club had a good distance to travel before reaching any water this morning - if you look closely you'll see Barney thought he'd join them in there too :-)

Wow, sharp dresser!

And Jacqueline scrubs up well too :-)
A fine day out at Dynamic Earth for the wedding of Adam and Mo.

Cockenzie...soon to be blasted to smithereens

Not long now until the towers are blasted to smithereens.
I hope it's a nice day so we can actually watch it happen :-)

Weather Malfunction?

Surely there must be some kind of mistake or error!
This is supposed to be summer? Right?
