A drizzly start to our day today. A bit damp on the bike ride this morning but not too bad. Borrowed some new release DVDs and copied them to RW (rewritable) disks for viewing at a later time.Then for a surf on the internet ... a new version of Firefox was available so I downloaded it and spent much of the day setting it up.
Firefox is a browser for the internet, a bit like Internet Explorer but a lot safer to use. It has a lot fewer security problems. The latest version of Internet Explorer (IE 7) has a lot of features based on Firefox actually and is now more secure than it used to be. What I like about Firefox is that I can add lots of features that I like to use when surfing the net.
I heard today my chip in the pool will be fixed in a couple of weeks.
Also learnt that Gordon and Anne Atkin have returned safely to Melbourne. They did the dirt road trip from Thargomindah in Queensland to Broken Hill in NSW. In doing so they ruined three tyres on the rough dirt road. An interesting experience but a mind sapping drive. They were pleased to be home and able to clean up after their two teenage lads had been home by themselves for 2 weeks! The recycling bin needs emptying Gordon says!
