Having fun 'initially' at Aldermaston!..

Moored Lower Padworth

I have been playing today while we have been moored here.  I have a new PDA

The trouble is being ‘long in the tooth’ I have not kept up with technology.  I remember my first mobile phone, such a brick it was, I used to carry it around in a big box!.. but then there was the nokia brickette.. a good ‘ol phone, dinky in comparison.. then upgrade that to errrrrrr.. a phone with a camera!  Yea Gods!, a camera?  Ah don’t need that, don’t bother to go to the page on instructions.. then next a phone with ‘music’!… Nah.. skip that bit.. now phones come with video apparently.  All I need is a phone that will dial out, receive and one that I can send a text message..

This brings me to my reason for playing today.. I have not kept up with technology.. skipping all those phone instruction book pages, because all I want to do is basic stuff.  Now I got myself a PDA, and I want to use it for GPS so when I go walking in the winter I won’t get lost!

OK so if you don’t know what PDA and GPS mean, then take to google.. I have been using google all day to try and get my head round how to work this thing.. Ah but Paul Balmer has come to the rescue to help me out.. he picked up my email “help”on his way home from work, on the train this evening.. yep on the train!

Of course there is WIFI on trains now, all free..

I think we are becoming a nation of ‘initial users’ … I will get my head round this stuff, long in the tooth or not!  ROFLMAO!!
