Getting Excited

This is my first foray into the world of blogging. I am not sure if anyone will actually read this other than a few friends and family. Alternatively it could go viral, make loads of cash and have me wondering why I ever worked in the first place.  The first thing I have to do is get my head round the technology side of things, which I have to say I am struggling a bit with.  I am using Blogger app on an android phone and a bluetooth keypad. All the hardware is working OK but the software is a bit tricky to get the hang of. This is about my third attempt at getting started and text seems to vanish.  I have resorted to using the PC which is a lot easier, but means you need to import photos etc. The background is that Margaret and Colin (me) have retired over the last year Margaret finished work about a year ago.

Greetings to Family and Friends, ex colleagues and anyone else who is interested. We have set off on another sailing season and hope to keep the blog that we started five years ago going. It is becoming more difficult to be novel in what we are about, because, well, its not any more. However the need to keep a record for our own purposes is increasingly required as the number of small grey cells declines with each passing year. We set off from Swansea bus station on the red eye National Express coach. It was quiet until we got to Cardiff when the contents of the Millenium Stadium got on. It seems there was a concert of some sort. They were very well behaved youngsters of various generations, but very excited and somewhat noisy. The passenger cohorts on buses are always different from trains. You have to be significantly wealthy to travel by train these days so bus dwellers are more representative of, well, the man on the Peckam Omnibus. I am not sure I get blokes wearing purple nail va
