Painting and decorating becomes obsessive, yet at the same time, it's nice to change the house and add some colour.
Gaming? What's that?

Argentina exploded in joy and happiness yesterday evening on reaching the World Cup final and I witnessed the scenes of cars honking their horns and fans dancing in the streets.
Believe me, it's contagious!
Sunday will be nerve wracking.
I picked up this lovely used (2021) Himalayan on Wednesday and can't stop riding it.
Reminds me of a mountain goat as it will go practically anywhere.
Searching for a new motorcycle is a serious business, but I think I may have found the right one. Definitely a Himalayan, maybe not this one, but one like it.
GPU replacement shelved!
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has died. Long live the King.
Wishing You a Very
Just realised that I've been on TPU for just over six years. I don't usually hang around forums for that long!
Must be something in the water
Cool effect on my new website
Signing my book today at the Buenos Aires book fair!
The president has landed!
The translated version of my book into Spanish has now arrived and I'm all set for the Buenos Aires Book Fair!
I grew these Bird of Paradise plants from seed, but had to fight off the armies of ants. Luckily, they survived but probably won't flower until next year or the next.Attachments

I write for Dave's Computer Tips and we're struggling with the Facebook behemoth to get our site URLs unblocked.
41c (106f) today in Buenos Aires and it's been hovering around that for what seems like weeks. Bring on the rain and thunderstorms!
A panoramic of my new den and a close up of my main PC, which I can now get at without having to move furniture all over the place.
We're getting married today. Yay!
My stepson moved out on Friday and I requisitioned his room which is now my den/workshop. The garage served its purpose but it was noisy, draughty, very dirty and it didn't have a window!
Work in progress...
Hey...
We're getting married on 22nd of October!
First met in June 1976 as teenage sweethearts in Buenos Aires, life took us apart and then we met again in 2005.
The road is long, as they say...
Running Windows 10 with only 2GB of RAM is a painful experience and only slightly less painful with 4GB, which is the maximum a Biostar G31 motherboard will take (DDR2).
Anyway, the pensioner customer only browses the Web and plays Bridge online, so upping the RAM is the best I can do, within reason. Lucky to find the RAM anyway.
Just spent the last couple of days completely overhauling two of my websites and heck, did I learn a few things!
A Brit In Buenos Aires
The Last British President
WordPress is actually quite forgiving and I've stuck to the absolute minimum of plugins. In fact, about two per site for the time being.
A spot of cable management on my VHS converting machine (Athlon 3000G) in a rather old case and Floyd approves.
Finally grabbed Wallpaper Engine purely for kicks and it is pretty cool. Although I don't spend a great deal of time staring at my desktop
My Corsair Strafe has been doing sterling work until recently when the right arrow key broke. I imagine it's because of overuse since I use the arrow keys for racing games, but it should have lasted longer than three of four years.
Anyway, the keyboard came with some spare keys which is just as well because I can't find any replacements here in BA.
If it works, it works.
Remember AMD Overdrive Thermal Margin?
Took me a while to wonder what was going on here with an ambient temp of 25c and a stock air cooler.
Hola ! Hace algunos meses posteaste una consulta sobre una HP touchsmart 320 que no encendia.
Me esta pasando algo parecido: la maquina funcionaba bien, pero la abri para upgradear a SSD y, al armarla nuevamente no enciende. Prende el led de power pero no arranca nada !
Pudiste resover el problema ? Tendras alguna idea para darme ?
Gracias ! -
