    Morning all,
    Sorry not been on much life gets in the way sometimes! I haven't really done alot. Not much going on just about to make breakfast and a coffee then off to work I go. Got my zoom call this evening and tomorrow I'm off work as I've got my covid jab at 2.30. On other news though my smart watch came and I've been playing around with that.
