Well by the end of the month the all new site will be ready on a new server and NOT using Windows Live Spaces. Lots of new features in the new site along with the blog. Photo galleries, a chat room specifically for OM Forum Members going on courses and a few surprises. This site will close down when the new one opens, but will be replaced by a "personal" site rather than an outdoor one. The new personal site will chronicle the last 46 years from being taken into childrens homes at 4 years old, through the public school system, foster parents, and bringing things up to date with the kids, cheating excuse of a wife and finally taking the Police to court for multiple breaches of PACE and Human Rights.

 

There should be a few topical issues on the new live space site, from looking at a legal system where solicitors get paid no matter how good or bad they perform, people like Marjorie Garland who live in Ireland but come to the UK for medical treatment at OUR expense, the erosion of personal freedom for those living in the UK and life in a state where the Police and politicians think they are above the law.  How Micrsoft make a big noise about pirated software but aren't interested when a business runs on pirated operating systems. There will also be a look at the lowlife of Leyland, Preston and Warrington and a retrospective on the way life used to be in our National Parks. On a lighter note there should be topics like how to make the best fire from a caravan, even better if you have a VW beetle for kindling and how to use a PS3 chip to break password protection.

 

 

I hope to cover the progress on restoring a 1991 Japanese imported Eunos Roadster to original condition - so much better than a VW convertible! At the same time I'll be fitting out a camper van for week long trips with onboard computer, TV and communications.

 

Over the next three weeks there won't be much in the way of outdoors news on here as it's all being prepared for the new site, and should coincide with the new routes section on OUTDOORSMagic.com (at last!!!!).

 

So lots of new stuff to come
