Now what shall I do with my time?

Not me but at least that's what Carol will be saying soon as she has finished her last exam after the Bank Holiday and now its just waiting for the results. She hasn't been idle though with preparing for a job interview that is due to happen soon.

There was a respite however when we went to London on the 4th May to see the sound of music and stayed overnight to catch the Renoir exhibition.

This has of course meant that I din't get much sailing in and even the camping weekend was cancelled because of really poor weather.

Work is very busy at the moment and I'm travelling back on the train from London at 8.00 pm after 2 very long days. things don't get much better on Wednesday and Thursday as I'm in Edinburgh but working from home on Friday to catch up on stuff.

This coming weekend is forecast as being poor weather too but we will have to wait and see about that.

Still havent managed to fly my radio controlled helicopter as its been too windy to fly outdoors and too dangerous to fly inside. Need to sort out the trim on it though as it still spins around when in the air.

Strange thins started happening to my PC on Sunday when it tried to send 2 emails from outlook but there wasn't anything in the outbox. Suspecting it might be a virus of some sort I decided to use the recent backup that I had and restored it through Acronis software. The whole process worked really well and at least I now have the satisfaction of knowing that it actually works.

Been playing around with Lightroom a little more and I now have a set of tutorial Movies that I am starting to plough through. These will keep me company in Edinburgh no doubt.

I will be glad to get home tonight and have a few hours with Carol and Barney before I jet of tomorrow
