Not really achieved anything this week apart from mess myself up! Or rather, WINDOWS has messed me up and I could have strangled that Bill Gates last night! I was trying to re-instal the software for my wireless internet connection when it froze halfway through. After several attempts, it transpired that Gates was not exactly flavour of the month and several scenarios of revenge ran around my head like loose confetti in a breeze. No matter what I tried, the machine was not taking the installation as it should. I de-fragged, ran CHKDSK, tried to instal the software yet again but it was having none of it. I nearly went bald in frustration.
Then it hit me like a thunderbolt! Why struggle with a clapped out engine when you can have a brand new one fitted for free?
And that's what I've done folks. I've got a different operating system on my computer and it's called LINUX! I loaded it today.
In a word - FANDABIDOZI
Windows? More like WIN-DOZE compared to Linux. It won't take me long to navigate my way around this O/S and the graphics are out of this world. It's wonderful! The Gods have smiled upon me after all!
Bill Gates? Well he can go and shove his spyware-riddled, Windows, system up his own jacksy for all I care. From now on, it's LINUX for me.
REDDITCH COUNTY HIGH.
The love of my youth. Cruelly snatched away from me by Fate on 15th April 1972.
PRAA SANDS.
My norwegian freinds and I used to jump off these cliffs pretending we were ski-jumpers. We must have been mad!
With outstretched arms, it was free flight for us. This cliff was one of the "low" ones according to my friend, Jan Fredriksen from Stavanger!
A BSA C15
This is almost an identical model to the one I used to ride. Mine was the C15SS, the Super-Sports which was slightly faster. Fuel consumption was excellent. You could ride for over 80 miles on just a single gallon of 3 star. Top speed was between 75 and 80 miles per hour - that's if you believed in the accuracy of the Smiths clock!
