Old worn out, retired IT Consultant, SCUBA Diving Instructor, Judo Instructor and Archer.
I'm also a devout Atheist !
I've been a volunteer First Responder for 6.5 years..
I detest science deniers, creationists and followers of batshit conspiracies
Yesterday was Remembrance Sunday, and just as in my every previous year for over 70 years, I attended the local Remembrance Service held in our local memorial garden. Much praying & singing of hymns ensured, but not by me.
I'm an atheist.
I feel the loss of so many lives just as much.
Perhaps more.

I've been using the AVG anti-virus and utility suite for years on some of my systems. I got a renewal notification today. I decided that I no longer need it, so I cancelled my subscription. I immediately got an offer to renew at HALF the cost !
That stinks !
My cancellation stands.

The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they've found it…

Not my cat !

She or he was sitting on the large table in our garden, just watching me.
Or dog was indoors, otherwise the cat would have left quickly.

America is broken, it urgently needs drastic repairs.

I'm a First Responder and an Instructor, I teach volunteer First Responders for the FAST (First Aid Support Team) here in Murcia province, Spain.
During 2021 I wrote a comprehensive presentation set in PowerPoint. It's intended for initial and refresher training.

Tesla - What next ?

This popped up over here in Spain.

Older Tesla cars aren't all doing to well.
Why am I not surprised ?

Sometimes one sees something and one can't unsee it.

The pic is, from left to right, my Dad, my brother Pete and Leonard Nimoy.

All three sadly no long with us.

Following the sad loss of our two dogs a couple of weeks ago, we're fostering this little guy. He weighs just 6 kg. He was abandoned by whoever had him and rescued by a local animal charity.
He's very sweet. Maybe we'll keep him.

Plunking in the garden, in the sun.
I can still hit it! 🙂
Olde Hunter bow, no sights!

I need to do more of this to de-stress !
I've killed that target, I must get a new one.

Yesterday morning, Casey left our world, after being a fun companion for 13 years. We grieve.
I wish to commend the Vets at HAPPY PETS with particular emphasis on Maria and Pedro, who have lavished outstanding care and love on Casey for past the 6 years that we have been in Camposol.

Sometimes memories get mixed up, as in this picture.

I was on the UK telly on Thursday 16-1-2025. In a programme called 'Bargain Loving Brits in The Sun' on CH 5.
They did a segment on our volunteer First Responder group.
Usually the programme is a bit of a piss take, but they were quite decent about us.
That's me doing a CPR demo.
