well it has been a very couple of months. I have been rushed off my feet in July. August has been a bit slow but that is usual being school holidays not everyone can get away if they have family. I am off to Manchester this weekend 16th august to 18th august 2024. I am really looking forward to Manchester as I have never been there before. I have a nice hotel booked it’s is the holiday inn manchester west my room comes with a king size bed and breakfast. There is free parking at the hotel though I don’t need to worry about that as I am going by national express coach with one change on each leg of journeys.I will need to change coaches in Birmingham on my way to Manchester tommorrow and then the same again on Sunday to get the coach to southampton. I shall be uploading all my pictures on my new computer which arrived today as my last computer broke and rather than repair it I got a computer that was cheaper than the repair. The new computer is a lot faster and has come with windows 10 pro whereas my old computer had windows 7
