    Nintendo Switchers?

    Another vote for Zelda BoTW, I clocked up hundreds of hours on it. Mario Kart is a good shout too and so is Mario Odyssey

    10m band

    That was my thoughts too, it seems to be all or nothing, hopefully I'll have better results mobile with the firestick antenna. 73 M0YNW

    10m band

    A question to the hams on here, has anyone had any luck with the 10m band recently, there was a contest not too long ago on it, I couldn't hear much then and now its completely flat. I wonder if it's my rig being a little bit deaf on that band. I'm using a Yaesu FT-991A and EFHW long wire...

    Saving the planet?

    Fossil fuels will run out, We already know how to make synthetic oil / bio-fuel from plants, we just need to do more of it instead of pumping it from the ground. We have nuclear fission and combine that with steam turbines to generate electricity, again we need to do more of it instead of...

    Stranger Things.

    I've had a strange occurrence a few years back, not with ghosts but with time, I was in Dedham standing in the field next to the river, it was like time had stopped, there was no birdsong, no wind and looking out into the distance, there was a little house on a hill, the whole of that scene...

    Smoking Ban

    Smoking Ban

    Got out of the smoking game years ago, now I vape, similar sensation to smoking without the nasties in it, of course its not 100% safe, but then nothing is.

    Affinity, what's it like please?

    A bit of a learning curve if you're coming over from Adobe PS, but otherwise not too different. at £25 it's well worth it. I use it on the iPad with the pencil and thats where it really shines, the inpainting tool is my favourite and does a really good job of taking out unwanted elements of a photo.

    Mid-life crisis......the stringed instrument thread.

    I've taken up guitar too, been playing since the first lockdown, practice every day and it will stick, I'm practicing blues riffs and scales, just do it for the sheer enjoyment of it :)
