This is my box of drivers for my PC. After weeks of dodgy start-ups and shut-downs I bit the bullet and re-instaled Windows.
It's a dirty job but someone has to do it.

It might well be Boxing Day but I still found a few minutes to play a few chords.
I'm pretty determined to learn to play this year. With that and the book to write I can safely say that I'm fully booked this year.
Pun intended.

What A Weekend

I've spent most of my weekend sorting my PC. It seems to be OK now, fingers crossed.
Today's picture is just one of those things to be found around my desk.
It's a lighter by the way.

I'll try and fix it tonight but if I can't it's back to the shop for repairs.

Stopping For A Chat

Stopping For A Chat
Originally uploaded by MikiStrange

This puddytat lives at a council depot in Coventry.
Here he is tucking into his mid morning snack. He's very chatty and told me that the secret the horses told me was a lie.
Mr Man says there are no horses on the moon and that I'm a twit for believing them.
He also said that 'Straight from the horses mouth.' was an unreliable statement and had been considered so for years.
I thanked the chitter chat and left him to his snack.
He's so bright that one!

It's a tradition in Clarendon Park to hang Xmas tree's from the front of the shops and bars. Last year was dismal.
This year is looking much better.
Hooray!

This is the bit of Kenilworth Castle the I stormed. It was easy!
I just said "Who will fight me for this bit?" and nobody wanted to so I took control.
I'll do the rest next week.

I wanted to know if I could get this picture off my PSP and onto my blog.
Seems I can.

Xmas Shopping

Xmas Shopping

Coventry's new Ikea opens in just over a week. This isn't a bad thing but the traffic around the store will be.
I'll report on the chaos nearer the time.
It's a pity there isn't enough room in a car to build a flat pack wardrobe, most of the shoppers will certainly have the time.

Todays blog is from a folly in Warwickshire somewhere.
The sails aren't going round even though it's windy.
It truly is a folly.

I wish I was that talented. Just imagine that I could play with me toes an all. I'd fill the Albert Hall.
In reality I'm much cleverer than that and shun the limelight.
Oh! Reservoir!
I'm cultured too ya know.

This is the view from the DJ box in Browns. I'm doing my last set for some time from here.
I'll see you around in meatspace soon. It's back to a virtual MikiStrange for the time being.
