Hi Guys. For those few interested, I've updated Snoopy's Blog11 on http://www.gpss.co.uk/rbblog11.htm with the "End of October 2024" photo trail video.
The public "Who has visited" statistics are working well, even though it's not always easy to guess who it is. e.g. that visit from "Paris"
could be my old Ferranti workmate Pete Wilson  - or lots of other guys. Paris is "special": http://www.gpss.co.uk/paris/
:-)

https://www.youtube.com/embed/Troz_B80x0Y?si=pkyO1oFJVZQ5ruzy is a 1.2 hour video with the trails of photos shot between Saturday 26th until Friday 31st October 2024. The video starts with Robin's usual amusing introduction, shot on Friday 25th AND earlier days, walking down their front drive at 22 Armitage Court in Sunninghill. Robin shows you Snoopy's Robot Boat in the front garden, on 24/7 Static Test, researching improving solar power. Not yet done. The boat should soon be ready for a Bray Lake Test, before a 2024 Atlantic Attempt. Photo trails show how, with the right help, they might get the house and garden back to what they were several decades ago.  This, and earlier videos, have important detail for potential helpers in "property maintenance" ;-) They need plenty of experience and "common sense" ;-) After the photo trails, Robin wraps up with video shot in July 2023: prophetic words of James Lovelock about Global Warming, and Robin's suggestions about the DVLA. He still has not received his driving licence. Most guys would be annoyed, but Robin is often amused by incompetence - so long as it does not result in suffering, pain, or death. It has been very "inconvenient", with more load put on June, coping brilliantly with her health problems. Robin spoke to Magnolia House GP Surgury: she MAY have a blood test in mid November. The latest letter to the DVLA appeared in the earlier video, but is dealt with more clearly on Robin's PRESS and DVLA pages ;-) Yes, as can be expected, from Robin's career, then hobby interests, there are plenty of examples of people, GPS Tracking, and technology being exploited. e.g. wildlife and people caught on CCTV; Sunninghill Comrades Club; Pub Lunches ;-) The automatic subtitles/captions should soon be available, with translation into any language. Well Done Youtube Guys, whoever and wherever you are ! ;-) Footnote: Youtube used to give a choice of three images, for the "title picture" - and now just one. Often a good choice - even better if not me in it :-) I might do it myself - not an image bigger than 2 MB ! Not difficult with old Paint. Google and Youtube things change - fewer people to employ and pay ? Bring back people, simply aided by A.I.  ! :-)

That's the Youtube description above.
Take Care
Robin
That black SOS tracker will probably show me in the Sunninghill Comrades Club again tonight ;-)

Hi Dermot. Not same email, but most have link  http://www.gpss.co.uk/rbblog11.htm 
Sorry if my memory is playing me up, but I thought you were in Ireland - last visit October 6th ?
Let me check your http://www.kalopa.com ... no trading address ...
Where are you roughly ? I recall a Dermot on Microtransat in the film business ???
Please forgive this 77 year old with flakey memory :-)
Take Care
Robin

It seems Dermot has a problem with his email system generating that same "Groundhog Day"
response, that it generated some days ago. Want to know who Dermot is ?

Sorry all - on behalf of Dermot ;-)
Pub Grub today at Cricketers Bagshot - track me if you wish http://www.gpss.co.uk/contact.htm :-)
