Totally exhausted!! Over last 11 months I have been doing a distant learning course and just finished rewriting all my notes. All homework assignment have been completed and returned. Out of 12 topic, 10 were A's and 2 B's so overall got an A average. Just waiting for the arrival of my big test which will consist of practical and theoretical work that will take up to 6 weeks to complete but hopefully after that I will have a lovely certificate to say I am a certified Web designer.
Hardest part for me was the translation from German to English to try and understand what was need for the homework assignments. But I am done!!! On to my next programming language to learn and keep up adding to the stuff I have learned so far.

Well done that is a great achievement
Went on the x6 bus to Eastleigh.. loved it .. I cant drive anymore but Im going to master bus routes this year..
Im finding it amusing how many people jump out of the way when I have to deploy the white cane, it has been ironic thou that the only people that dont are those in electric wheel chairs who just seem to drive where they want at top speed...seems there is no solidarity in us disabled.
Insured my new smart phone with Debenhams ... cheaper than THree...but i did loads of quotes and you really have to read the small print re excess etc.
Car travel is a real chore nowadays let alone trying to park at your destination. Take a bus as often as possible . I bet you'll find a phone app with bus routes ,e.t.a.'s for various stops Splashy. As far as mobility scooters are concerned they can be a nightmare for pedestrians. I'm sure one or two of 'em would have those spikes fitted to the wheels given half a chance, same as Masala had on his chariot in Ben Hur

oh so true Glen
Spent today at my flat with a lovely letting agent, my second quote on renting the property. 25 quid down on the first one but they do a package whereby they rent the property off me and let it so its not my problem but theirs if the renter ends up on "cant pay we will take it away" on TVs channel 4 ,, even paying their fees for that earns me more interest than if I sold the property and put the money in a savings account. .. our country hates and punishes savers.
Local lecky company installed new metre reader , the chap was very pleasant and we had great banter, mainly him moaning that my spark had made his job hard becaouse of the placement of the power box.
A Hit and A miss thou was the man quoting for two new storage heaters, apparently they need to be constructed individually by German elves from parts imported from never never land and installed by engineers shipped in from Venus and would be around 4 grand But we would get a discount if the Venus engineers could come on a set day when others where having there gold plated hand made heat boxes of joy installed... dont get me started on his closing pitch about how I should pay a deposit now because they where German and how more expensive they might be next week due to currency falls due to Brexit. Yeah cant kid a kidder, i did closing sales courses for years meself. ABC
