It was a lovely day yesterday, but I had to stay in and wait for the new Antek Skeleton case for The Beast. I haven't taken any pictures of it yet. It was about 1 o'clock by the time it came, I got it out the box and checked it over. The first really decent day we have had and I missed it. I'm going out today even if it kills me. I've only left the house twice in the last 2 weeks and that was only to go over the road to the Coop. I think I will go to the Sycamore Centre to dispel the rumours among the students, that I'm dead. I hope it was like it was yesterday, but with my luck it will pour all day. There are some Youtubes on my site, to give a rough idea of what I built yesterday. oldviking.multiply.com/guestbookKC

Not too bad here in Plymouth, a bit misty,but dry. Forecast says we might get some sun this afternoon.
I'll be glad when the weather gets warmer though, I'm fed-up wearing these thermal long-johns. [/size][/font]

Its dry here and not a bad day really.
I could have baked cakes with it Dave, thats why I took it out of a tower. Anyone who decides to use a Radeon 4870 graphics card, should build their computer in a fridge.

It has been another lovely day here in Plymouth,lot's of sun and almost no wind.
Unfortunately, the forecast doesn't look too promising for the week-end.

Lovely here too, plenty of sunshine, but cold wind which of course spoils it.

I know what sun is and rain, but I wouldn't know a precipitate if it bit me on the bum.

Frey is the diem of sun and rain Phoney, but I dont know if he would have room in his boat for precipitation.
It was 17 or 18° C here yesterday and judging by the sky as the sun came up, its going to be a warm day today.

It's a beautiful day. I went out early and made an appointment to see the quack. I walked in the sun to the city centre, which was nearly deserted. I had a cup of coffee and sat in the sun. I had a cigarette and a yarn with an old drunk, who was waiting for the pubs to open. Then I went back and saw the doctor and stocked up with pills. Now I'm back home having a strawberry yogurt and a hot cross bun. Then I'm going to look at all the housework that needs doing, relax to get my strength up to play darts tonight. Playing darts isn't hard, but its having to lift all them pints of Guinness that takes it out of you.

Sounds like a lovely day you have had so far and for the rest of the day. I have just blitzed the housework and got some washing on. I might sit outside and read later.

Nice bit of sun this afternoon, till the sea mist came back in over Plymouth Sound. Doesn't look promising for the week-end here.

Lovely morning, but a bit overcast in the afternoon. At least it stayed dry for a change.

It's still quite misty, but the sun is trying to break through, might turn out nice enough to get down the coast this afternoon...............Update 11.30pm, went down to Looe in Cornwall, but weather stayed misty with only a weak sun. This is West Looe.

As its a nice morning, I thought I would take a few snaps from my window. My colours are not as pretty as Nocky's though, I used a wide angle closeup lens and its softened the colours. I might take some more later on, using my normal lens. It quite a pretty place for an inner city estate. KC

Thanks everybody, I am luck and probably have one the best views in Beirut. Mikks just round the corner, but he's got his own jungle to look at. I have a steeple on the skyline, just in front of Daves old house. One day I will even get to hold the camera straight while flying. This shot I took over my shoulder as I flew back across the valley. Clark Kent makes flying look easy, but Ken Clark hasn't quite mastered it yet. Then perched on my window sill, I took this one with the church and trees in the right hand corner. The quality gets a bit better when I'm not dodging chimney pots. I haven't really done anything to these pictures Nocky, except trim them up a bit. I love your style. I could always pick your pictures out of a bunch. KC

How'd he get back in? I thought I'd got rid of him along with the seagulls, I need a better clone tool.
