Twisted Kites

Summer is here. It’s the season of the smoothie! Amazing how delicious such a simple recipe of pineapple, banana and ice cubes can be! I’ve recently started to ensure I eat more fruit as that sort of thing is where I could do much better. Mango smoothie is also delicious
Got myself a nice pair of sunglasses yesterday, polarised ones. Now polarised ones are good and well but they have a habit of interfering with LCD displays (if you haven’t a clue see these two articles: polarisation, LCDs) but luckily this pair is good. The polarising filter is angled so I can still read my phone,and other LCDs without tilting my head. Except for one… the screen in our Neoplans blacks out which is awkward for knowing which gear it’s in as it’s the only way. Controlling the 12 speed box through speed and revs alone takes some getting used to (it’s just a flappy stick lever). Screens in new Plaxtons are fine, luckily. (And yes, it is inportant as I spend lots of time driving these things!).

One thing I like about polarised glasses is all the pretty rainbow colours that they bring out, odd patterns on car rear windows, stuff like that. Yep, I am easily amused.

Finally signed up with Facebook in the last few days. What a strange place. Anyone else there? Need to have more of a play with it. T first look it seems similar to Myspace, but stricter yet more useable.
