After
several years of using Microsoft’s FrontPage
97 and 2000 for the websites I have
produced, I am now Using MS FrontPage 2003.
I did try out Serif’s WebPlus X2, but just
couldn't get my head around it. I have
thought for some time why I couldn't get
converted - guess it that I am stuck in my
old ways |

When I took over
my flat in September 2004, the weeds towering above
me, so some industrial strength weed killer was
sprayed to blast them all. I wish I had taken some
photos then, but I did take one before I started to
get to work on it. I chose to gravel the lot for a
couple of reasons. I didn't want to grass it,
because that would have meant having a lawn mower,
with nowhere to keep one.
The other reason
is that about 4" below the surface, is a layer of
roadstone which would have taken an age to dig up,
so, it's gravel and mainly pots and containers,
which can be shifted around to suit how I feel.

My taste in music is varied and depends upon mood I'm
in, but I like most old style C&W,
Folk-Rock,
Fleetwood Mac,
Moody Blues, that sort of
thing. I've got a bit of selection
of classical, and have< been even
known to like The Beautiful South
and The Lighthouse Family, plus one
or two of the modern bands, Empire
of the Sun, Fleet Foxes, that type.
I really like
RunRig, a Scottish Folk Rock
Band, who've been around since the
early 70's, I now have 23 of their
albums and the DVD of the Stirling
Castle Concert.
Radio: Favourite radio stations are
BBC Radio 2, KLFM and Classic FM ,
and I have the radio on most of the
day, as I do with the kettle.
TV: TV programmes I mainly watch are
The Six O’Clock News on BBC, The
One Show, Gardeners World,
Documentaries and historical,
especially Animal Cops. Quite a few
Sports Programmes get in there too,
especially if Liverpool are playing!
Cannot abide soaps, cooking (except
maybe Rick Stein) or reality
shows!!! I watched BB for about 5
minutes several years ago and never
since.

Photography: I've always been interested in
photography but recently changed over to digital. I
have a Kodak ZD710. The camera has so many features
and I'm still working my way round it. I’m even
trying out video.
Liverpool FC: Not a fanatic, but I do like to follow
them. An age old interest, from the days when I was
a mere lad on Merseyside. Even got the T-shirts!
Radio Amateur - G4UQN. Though not operating these
days, I still have my licence. I still have some of
my gear and used to operate on the 70cm, 2,Top, 10,
20 and 40 meter bands. Might have to sell all the
gear. I have recently found and taken an interest
in
AIS (Automatic Identification System) - a short
range coastal tracking system used on ships and by
Vessel Traffic Services (VTS) for identifying and
locating vessels by electronically exchanging
data with other
nearby ships and VTS stations. Many of the
receiving stations are owned and operated by Radio
Amateurs. Take a look through the link below -
you'll be suprised how many tankers are anchored off
Southwold!
