On Friday we visited Rachel, Steve, Thomas and James in Kettering. The journey up was the first time we used traffic-i — and it certainly made motorway driving on a Friday night much more predictable. An added bonus: my phone is backlit, making traffic-i usable as a map, without the hassle of rummaging around for a map light.
We ended up at a park on Saturday with Rachel and Thomas and found a cool combined swing, seesaw and roundabout….

I’d estimate that so far Skype has saved me about £100 in call costs this month. That’s not quite true: I probably wouldn’t have made the calls, if I had to continue to pay BTs rates for calls to Australia. Skype just works and right now is free, but (there’s always a downside) it’s Windows only.

I know it’s only phone marketing really, but I like t-six-ten.

I’m going to have to stop posting photos of the Brighton Bears until I get a zoom on the camera phone…you can’t see anything really. But we were at a game with Nigel & Cheryl, I had the phone with me, so I took photos. Brighton won, which is the main thing 🙂

The good thing about almost-November is that you get those cold but really clear days. And the good think about living almost near countryside is that when Freddie visits Jeremy & Kirsty you can go out on a walk and get your own private petting zoo.

If you get an opportunity to see Men In Coats, you should take it. We saw them last night, not knowing what to expect, and were delighted. Difficult to explain, but it’s: comedy, silent, silly and clever.
