I now have the Palm synchronisation software working on the pc, the first run of the software took a little while!

Claire and Gill arrived from Norfolk to stay over the weekend.

I now have most of the software fully working on my main pc. It’s surprising how much the configuration of two computers can change over time when one is used as the main machine and the other used mainly as a back up. While all the Windows updates and essential imaging software have been kept in sync a number of applications have only been used on the one computer.

Welsh class this evening, the last one until after Christmas.

I’ve been becoming increasingly frustrated with my ageing Sony Vaio laptop so today decided to start using the main pc at my desk downstairs. The idea is sound but the practicalities of copying my emails and settings from the notebook were tedious, why do two almost identical installations decide to store default files in totally different locations? It was a few hours work to make sure that everything was synchronised between the two machines.

We shopped at Tesco in Talbot Green today, we also had the turkey lunch, the stuffing balls were very nice but everything else was rather poor. Leekes in Pontyclun however generally provide an excellent ‘home cooked’ lunch – we should have visited them first!

Fitted a new battery to my mum’s car, she hasn’t changed it for a few years and it was beginning to struggle in the cold mornings we’ve been having recently.

Visited the Hollybush in Church Village for lunch.

A completely work free day today!

A relaxing Saturday for a change, I still managed to do some work on album designs though 🙂

It will soon be Christmas!

More work on Geraint and Rachel’s additional album, nearly completed.

Ordered a number of Image Book albums to complete recent orders.

A large delivery of prints by courier from the lab and another large order sent to them.

Completed the design of Andrew and Lisa’s wedding album, uploaded it to my web site and it has been approved. The parent albums are going to be smaller copies of the wedding album so I’ve re-sized the images and created all the files to go to the lab for printing. Ordered the three E series albums on-line and received the order confirmation emails.

Upgraded my local server to the latest version of Apache – worked first time.

More work on album designs today, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel getting brighter!

Welsh class this evening.

Breakfast at the bakery in Church Village this morning.

A large batch of images burned to CD earlier this morning and posted off to the lab while I was in the village.

I completed the changes for Andrew and Lisa’s wedding album and have up-loaded the design to my web site for approval.

I created the album order for Stuart and Karen’s E series album and sent that off to Jorgensen.
