Got my new bank card today. Reading through the pamphlet the send with the card I got to thinking why with all the new technology involved with Chip and Pin am I still limited to a 4-digit pin?

I would rather have a longer pin that would be harder for other people to guess.

Talking of pins, I think maybe time for me to change my pin.

Wow, what a treat me blogging twice in one day!

It’s that time of year again when I prefer being at work during the day, as the sun is shining too much and the temperature is too high.

Thankfully at the office where I work the Public areas are Air-Conditioned. If I have to work in back of office although not air-conditioned, there is enough fans that we could start a tornado in the room.

I feel I should say sorry to (any) readers of my blog as I am terrible at updating, but please remember my other site at 2E0TZO.co.uk which is usually updated with any Amateur (Ham) Radio stuff I do.

While I think about it, I have moved Gadget17 (hopefully without any problems) to a new host with which I am now paying for server space.

Now, when you pick your jaw of the floor at me spending money on hosting, I should say I am now with DreamHosts.

I will be sorting a special Promo code for readers to save money on hosting shortly with BIG savings.

Just a short note to let my readers (all one or two of you) know that I am away on the Isle of Wight and will write how it went when I return and publish some photos.

Check back soon.

Just a short note to let readers (if I have any) that I am now on Holiday for about a week on the Isle of Wight.

I may come online and give reports later in week, as I have to use Internet Cafe @ 50p per 5 mins.

Will also be attending on Friday the Isle of Wight Radio Society (see links for their details) as I am an Associate member.

Now of the try to enjoy the very hot weather.

Edit:-  When I return, I am going to install a gallery (actually will be software called Gallery) and post some photos from my trip.
