Unexpected Snow

Suddenly winter arrived in Bromyard

Tidying up the garden.

I have a lot of small trees and shrubs in the garden which need cutting back regularly. Decided today that rather than dragging the prunings to the council tip I'd buy a shredder.

Wickes 2500 watt garden shredder, sturdy, powerful, £69, does what it says on the box.

Might also be a solution to the problem of cats crapping in the vegetable patch too ;-)

Firefox no scrolling problem - fixed!

At last! Finally I got around to fixing the lack of touchpad scrolling in Firefox (and Thunderbird for that matter) on my Acer laptop. All that was required was to update the Synaptics touchpad drivers.

So, no need to use Internet Explorer then :-)

Where did they all come from?

Had a clearing out of the loft. five, yes five count 'em, old PC base units had collected up there!

All now stripped of useful bits and taken for recycling.

So that just leaves one spare PC, a Merlin Tonto, and a Commodore C64 in the collection :-)

The spare PC is currently having Zenwalk Linux installed on it.
