nano-itx seen in wild
I hate to imagine how long I’ve been waiting for Via’s nano-itx boards to be released. It seems that they are finally escaping out into the consumer world. I won’t be holding my breath though as there imminent release has been reported more than once before! But I want one, I’m not quite sure what for yet but I’m sure it will complement the Epia SP mini-itx board that powers this server.
Purchasing your tax disc on-line
Yesterday when collecting my car from the garage after it had passed it MOT the customer service adviser mentioned that with my new style Computerised MOT certificate I would now be able to apply for my tax-disc on-line.
In turns out that to apply for a tax disc on-line you have to meet the qualifications set out here and then you go to this new e-government website and fill in you details.
I can’t wait to try this out when I have to renew my tax disc next year. Much easier than a trip to the post office to join a queue 😉
Kew and Chihuly
After spending yesterday evening in Bristol for a wedding we took the opportunity on the way home today to visit Kew Gardens to have a look around the glass houses and in particular to look at the exhibition of the glass sculptures by Chihuly.
I originally heard about these sculptures from Richard and after seeing some of the photos that he took and Sarah shared we thought it was well worth a visit.
Here are some of the photos I took today at Kew (for more see flickr)
