Had a bit of a break from Blogger mainly because I found the site a bit difficult to navigate.
Now I’ve retired and I have more time to struggle with technology I thought I’d get back into the blog. It still looks like I’m struggling with the technology though. The app on my phone doesn’t seem to work properly and I’ve had to resort to sending ‘a letter’.
I guess practice makes perfect. A lot has happened since my last post. The country has completely gone to shit since doing well at the Olympics in London. Helen and I have now lost BOTH parents and Freddie is in the 4th year at school (year 10 to the young ‘uns).
I’m learning new things. I was frustrated to learn that I wasn’t eligible for a student loan as I already had a degree, even though I paid for it myself way back then. Gutted actually as I was really hoping to do Marine Biology and Oceanography in Bangor. My advice? Wait until you know what to do and don’t do ‘psychology’… it’s not even a proper science (…because you are essentially studying yourself yeah).
Never mind… instead I am using the time instead
to learn the ukulele and (currently) HTML (…have enrolled in Code Academy and plan CSS, JavaScript and Python next). Yeah right - my reaction to the struggle with technology!
