Tony Sutton’s Blog!

The weather has been very nice since this afternoon. I was glad because this morning, it was dull and dark but it brighten up later on.

Went out for a drive around, had lunch near the river, went for a walk around, saw a few houses, went for dinner and now we’re back home.

Very nice day. The weather has been great.

After getting home, I’ve been clearing out the garage a bit to get some boxes back in as we have some stuff inside the boxes which needs to be sorted out. Going to finish it off tomorrow.

Time for some TVs I think.

What a great idea!

Three Purdue University industrial designers who tapped into memories of their own childhood cycling misadventures have built a bike that ditches the training wheels but keeps rookies stable.

Called SHIFT, it slowly transforms from a tricycle to bicycle configuration as the rider pedals faster, then returns to trike formation as the rider slows down.

More here including a photo

The bike looks a bit ugly but as long as it works, it’s a great idea!

Morning! I woke up, went to the window and saw the red van driving away. I went downstairs and got the “Sorry, you were out” card. It says that the time I can pick it up is on Tuesday due to the Bank Holiday. Bah. And I don’t know what it is. lol I’m trying to remember what I have ordered…

As I suspected… dull weather! The sun hasn’t come out yet. It’s hiding under the clouds.

Going to get some brekkie and catch up with the latest news.

Tonight’s pub meetup went really well. There were more people than last month, mainly due to the warm weather. However we couldn’t get some seats at the outside pub as it was very full. So we was upstairs, and it was bloody hot. Luckly, we sat near the window where the windows are open. So we got some nice, cool breeze wind coming in.

Plans for tomorrow:

* Carry on packing stuff
* Go out in the afternoon if the nice weather stays this way

I’m off to bed - nite everyone.

Wow… just wow

A revolutionary new x-ray machine which takes 3D pictures of patients is making diagnosis easier and cutting waiting lists.

The half-a-million-pound scanner has been unveiled at a hospital in Hastings.

The machine is being hailed as a medical breakthrough and is much faster than normal CAT scanners.

It takes 64 slices of x-rays of half a millimetre width to build a 3D picture of the body.

The technology is amazing…

Yay! It’s Friday Now! Tomorrow is the “Long Weekend” as we have a Bank Holiday on Monday.

This lunchtime, we went to the pub for lunch and celebrate my friend’s birthday. Nice weather today.

Going to have dinner then we’re off out to the monthly pub meetup - hopefully we will find a seat outside as it’s still nice weather now.

Oh and there are only 1 week and half to go till we move out. So soon!

What a GREAT play! Even a lot better with StageText it helped us to understand more.

If you haven’t watched it yet, go and watch it.

Google SMS UK

VERY USEFUL! I have always used Google Mobile to access their website to search for something and it eats up my GPRS time/costs.

Now they are offering SMS service which is free to use apart from the usual costs by your service provider. But I am on the 3,000 text a month package which means this is totally free for me to use. And it’s fast.

*thinks* Hmm, maybe useful for pub quiz… lol

Home now. One more working day till the weekend!

Going to cook dinner a bit early as I’m going out with the group of friends to watch Miss Saigon with StageText. Hopefully it will be a good night.

Images of my brain

Don’t get too freaked out.

Today went well, I think. Work was okay, however managed to get some stuff done. Still the usual waiting-for-feedback-from-users - been a week and a half so far. I think I’ll tell the user to give feedback or I’ll close the job… *shrugs* wait & see tomorrow.

Ohh, some of you may remember my trip to London for the Imaging the Deaf Brain research - well I have received the images and when I look at it, it made myself feeling all funny… I don’t know why, but it just did. I will upload it soon for you to check it out.

Been measuring our stuff to see what we can fit in our storage area for next month. Looks like we can fit more stuff than we thought, so that’s good.

Anyway, going to upload the photos now…
