1st Post

This is my 1st post and I am initially just testing Blogger out.

I've tried a few other solutions for a blog/diary using the journal section of my own site (www.stevenhorner.com) which is password protected, various standalone programs all of which have had problems and finally decided to try a proper blogging solution.

If all goes well I will start using blogger daily to record my thoughts, sites visited and anything else I come across that I find interesting.

I've just watched an interesting video (EPIC 2014), it's 8 minutes long but worth the time to watch.

At work today I was on an AT (Assisted Technology) course, basically it's about people who have some form of disability and how they can use a computer to do their job (Hardware/Software). Certainly opens your eyes, you don't realise just how difficult it can be to use a computer for some people.

The DVD I received in the post today from LoveFilm was Miracle. It's a true story about the U.S. Ice Hockey team from 1980, starring Kurt Russell. I had never heard of it before seeing it on LoveFilm but it had a high rating so decided to rent it. Haven't watched it yet though.

I sat and watched the England v Holland match, don't know why I bothered, as England friendlies are always rubbish. It was a 0-0 draw and hardly any shots at goal, not sure what Eriksson was thinking with his substitutions putting Downing & Johnson on out of position, not really fair on them. How can you see what they are like if you play them in the totally wrong position.

I'm taking a course tomorrow morning at work on CRAMS (Case Record And Management System) and really not looking forward to it. I took the same course on Monday and had no idea what I was on about. Luckily I'm not doing the worst part (The Afternoon). Luckily I'm off work next week, although have to sort out exactly where I am going only decided Scotland so far.

Well that's it for my 1st blog....
