My Dirty Secret and I am going to tell it!

Well I am still here and have made a discovery after all these years. I was going to keep it a secret but, I am not ashamed anymore so have decided to tell the world.

It is clear that there will be much mirth and tittering behind my back and probably more so to my face, but I do not care.

Life is short and we must try everything once, well most things, not EVERYTHING!!! And, if we like it then it is ok to continue doing it I say.

There will even be pictures to follow my admission coming once I have gotten over the embarrassment.

It is something I swore never to do but I succumbed.

I like camping..... There you go I said it.... Well not actually camping in a tent... But the kids talked me into buying a Motor Home. Katie reckoned it was better than a boat on the canal, my choice, her reasons for this was that a motor home could go on land and water, via a ferry over to sunny France as well as traveling the length and breadth of Britain. Something Katie thinks would take more than her lifetime on a narrow boat. She had a point, so we bought a motor home and spent several weeks traveling Devon and Cornwall before visiting family in South Wales.

I have always been in the Jeremy Clarkson school of thinking when it came to camping and caravanning. But I was wrong... Wrong.. Wrong.. Wrong. It is great!

Well no more, The camp sites we visited had great facilities, loads to do and some of the most fantastic views I have ever seen.

Now, as a convert it can be easy to sing the praises and extol the virtues of the great outdoors and berate the much respected, aforementioned, Clarkson. Going over the top to justify our new discovery. But I wont... Suffice to say we will be doing it again. With our heads held high.

The online battle still rages and as time passes I become more knowledgeable and focused, but I still have to much crap on my system and it struggles under the weight of it all to load up in the morning.

It is the computer version of obese. It is out of breath as soon as it trys to do anything strenuous, like load a word document or open my email. It wheezes worse than a 84 year old man on 40 fags a day.

So, I intend to cleanse it, send it to the fat club and detox the hard drive.

There are some new sites up TradeByPc is a web site to market a fantastic new stock market and currency trading software. It actually tells you when to get in and out of a trade. Take a look and see for yourself. They offer a 14 day free trial and you can download it from my site.

A rather big post but it has been a long time since the last post.

until next time
