This is my page to add something interesting or just have a good old moan.
Alienfox UFO Investigator
Now I do love my UFO's never seen one but it really interests me, I would love someone to prove there are other intelligent beings out there, if there was, and, they turned up one sunny afternoon somewhere it would create panic, for lots of reasons, firstly the 'Their here to take our resources and kill us all', you can blame Stephen Hawkin for that, he did a programme on TV about alien life etc, he could be right, but who knows, there have been sightings for centuries, and they haven't done anything yet? The next group are the people who believe in God, any religion, don't care which, but who are they then going to believe in, because if an alien pops down for tea or world domination, they must have been around longer than everything and everyone in the Bible, Koran, of whatever book you read, so panic in the churches, streets, banks, governments to name just a few, anyway don't get me started on God etc, thats a whole new section, better start thinking of writing it.
Anyway, the Alienfox, nice guy, knows his stuff and has been investigating UFO's for a very long time, over 35 years in fact, very knowledgeable and has loads of files with real interesting stuff in them, so go check his new website, still under construction but worth a visit anyway, Alienfox.co.uk

A.D Plumb Glass & Glazing Godmanchester.
What a miserable little shit the guy that runs this place is, 3 times I have been there and 3 times he has told me to come back later.
Today I wanted 4 small sheets of 3mm glass, he asked me what I wanted, then said I'm busy at the moment come back in half an hour, there was nobody there and he could have sorted it in 2 minutes, he is also very expensive even his second hand glass must be made with see through gold or diamonds.
So you miserable little turd, that's the last time i come to you, it will cost me about £5 in petrol to go to your nearest competition but I am happy to pay that.

Astronomy & Astrophotography
Have started star gazing, I have 5 new telescopes that do different things so having fun in the freezing cold of winter, learning so much about the solar system and the universe, I am even now considering a maths & physics course this summer.

Horology
Found myself a new hobby for the summer as in the winter I am in the garden with my telescopes shooting the stars with my camera (Astrophotography). Horology (via Latin horologium from Greek ὡρολόγιον, from ὥρα hṓra "hour; time" and -o- interfix and suffix -logy; lit. "the study of time") is the art or science of measuring time. Clocks, watches,clockwork, sundials, hourglasses, clepsydras, timers, time recorders, marine chronometers, and atomic clocks are all examples of instruments used to measure time. In current usage, horology refers mainly to the study of mechanical time-keeping devices, while chronometry more broadly includes electronic devices that have largely supplanted mechanical clocks for the best accuracy and precision in time-keeping.
People interested in horology are called horologists. That term is used both by people who deal professionally with timekeeping apparatus (watchmakers, clockmakers), as well as aficionados and scholars of horology. Horology and horologists have numerous organisations, both professional associations and more scholarly societies.
Just got my new books on how to do it, so stripping down an old pocket to see if I can fix it.
