Another Glorious Day

It was a little brisk this morning but I still jumped on my bike well before 8 am and headed off for a ride.  Today I rode in towards town and along the Pumicestone Passage.  A couple of other walkers can be spotted on the left as they too enjoyed the morning sunshine.

There isn't a lot of news around after all I only put something on the blog yesterday.  I did some further fine tuning of my two websites, Media, How To and Movies, How To.

The first one Media, How to is with "Blogger" so it is extremely easy to edit and update.  There are a couple of things which didn't read smoothly so I fixed them both today.  Having not read through the website for a couple of weeks, gave me the chance to read it all again with fresh eyes.

The Movies, How To website (which is virtually the same as Media How To) is done on my computer with a special program I have for creating websites called Expression Web.  After changes are made on your computer you then have to upload the replacement files to the 50 webs website.  Again for this you need a special program designed for uploading this sort of stuff.

The Blogger version is all 'in the cloud'.  You can write something out in "Word" on your PC and when it is finished, copy it (Ctrl-C), open a new page in Blogger online and go "Paste" (Ctrl-V) and copy the whole page into the website.  You can even have pictures in your Word document and these too can be copy/pasted into a new Blogger page.

We watched the 2nd part of The Great Train Robbery last night and found it wasn't as gripping as part 1  but it was a heap better than other stuff around.  We did enjoy it and would have no problems recommending it to others.

Yesterday we went to have a look at a George Foreman Home Oven.  You never really know what a product is like until you actually see it on the shop shelf and have a good look at it.  Our main concern was, was it big enough to cook a decent roast?  After seeing it first hand the verdict was "no it isn't big enough!"

My home brew isn't quite ready to bottle just yet but that may be a task for tomorrow.

Trish is at Stitchers today.  She will arrive home exhausted as usual but she will be more than happy with the morning.

Around 24 is expected again today with some cloud about but not too bad at all.  It is still shorts, thongs and short sleeved shirt weather in this part of the world.
