To this end I created a PDF project scrapbook that is a free download. It contains the projects that have fascinated me over the years. It needs updating!
My aim has never been to make money. All I want is to share the enjoyment I have had. Feel free to take a look and print out anything you want. My message has always been to have fun!
"Baby boomers" is a term (certainly here in the UK) to describe the children growing up after WW2 into the 1960s. Later generations have been termed Gen Z, Millennials, etc..
We were lucky enough in many cases to have final salary pensions, come out of university without debts and the ability to afford houses. Jobs were often for life.
Certainly here in the UK things are harder. Few people have guaranteed pensions and few can afford houses without rich parents. Most leave university with huge debts. Jobs are hard to find.
At the same time, what is accepted by one generation is different. When I was young we had no phone, no car, no microwave, no mobile phones, no takeaways, no fridge and one TV channel (by the way no TV at all until I was aged 8!).
Yes, overall I think we were lucky, although the threat of nuclear war was always there.
I think life was simpler and we were happier than the young of today. I think we owe the next generations all the help we can give them.
This was a very popular company back when I was young.
This (very American!) video looks into the history of the Company. Back in the early 1960s I nearly got a Hallicrafters RX from G4PJ.
In recent times there have been a raft of scientific papers about climate change. Many point to a world that is warming faster than we once thought.
I get very annoyed with those who deny climate change as "fake news" when the evidence is self-evident. We risk leaving our children and grandchildren a damaged world.
The "Just have a think" video is about this this week.
The Russians have published figures which downgrade the growth in the Russian economy. Structural weakness?
It is sad that what you view these days may not be true.
Using AI videos supposedly by a famous person may not be by this person at all! This is why I never trust a channel I don't know to be genuine as there are a lot of fakes around.
People can make lots of money by visits to their sites, even if the contents are a load of rubbish.
My beacon was turned on just before breakfast.
My beacon was turned on at about 0905z.
UPDATE 1730z: 3 European stations spotting me.
