Hello and welcome to my Blog, my name is Chris, a bus driver for First Mendip based in Wells, Somerset. I am Chair and H&S rep for the depot branch of Unite the Union. Married to Fiona, we live in Midsomer Norton near Bath, with Boots the cat. My main hobby is Amateur Radio and I hold the call sign G4KVI. I am the repeater keeper for GB3UB and MB7UB. I have a fascination for the weather and all things to do with nature and science. As a Christian I worship, when shifts allow at St. Nicholas Church in Radstock. These are my observations on my life, both at work and at home.

A very smart, SmartPhone

Following a bit of a cock up on the Christmas present front. Both Fiona and myself have ended up with new Smart-phones. Mine runs the Google 'Android' software. I am always a bit sceptical about some new technologies, but this one has blown me away. The amount of available  'Apps' (programs) is impressive. I now can carry in my pocket. A telephone, a clock,  Internet browser, full am,FM, DAB internet radio. An APRS tracker. Able to work Amateur Radio via Echolink. And many other things I haven't discovered!
