Arrived home today to be greeted with a really really nice Mothers day card from
my boys.
They always pick nice cards but the words on this one are extra nice.
I also got a nice practical gift one for all of us….
The DVD the Long Way Down with Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman.
When it was on TV they had remembered how upset I was when I could not get our DVD player to record.
I enjoyed their other DVD the Long Way Round so I am sure I will enjoy this one too.

At work today we had a fantastic display of flowers for Mothers day.
Tell me one Mother that would not like flowers for Mothers day ??
It was a joy to see so many people thinking about their Mum’s and buying flowers… so nice to see all the teenage boys walking round with big bunches of flowers too.

My lap top is since Geoff up graded it from Vista to windows XP for me.
I thought it still had a problem as it was very slow at my house and very fast when at Geoff’s house.
After doing some little test’s I realize that its only my router , when connected by cable it goes like a rocket here too.
I am delighted that DI.FM works, Youtube works and BBC I player also works.
No more crashing.. no more problems with up loading pictures, memory map works, and Google earth works too.
In fact its almost heaven, now I just need to get my router sorted so I can move out the dinning room 🙂
An unexpected treat to get out walking on a Wednesday, a lovely day for it too.
A chance to try my new boots out as well.
While Geoff was on the Train to Kings Lynn, I had parked my car in Narborough and was on the bus to Kings Lynn.
We then met up and walked along the Nar river all the way back into Narborough, a total of 15 miles.
Not bad for a mid-week walk.
Although my boots felt very comfortable ,after about 6 miles my heel was burning and I had a nice blister by the time we finished.
I am hoping this is a temporary problem and just a matter of breaking them in.
The walk route can be seen here and my blister here.
The blister has given me no problems today and I will be doing a small walk this evening… maybe in my boots !!
