Firefox

For those who use Firefox, if you click on tools, add-ons, there is an Acuweather download I find good. It puts weather info at the botton of the browser for your particular city/town.

Re: GPSed allows someone to track your current position

I also cannot connect to the live tracking at all. At odd times I get the cell connected and can see the tracks on that, but nothing on the PC at home. Anyone got any answers?

Kranskop

Went up to Polokwane on Thursday the 27th on a sad trip to my Dad' funeral. The trip was brightened somewhat by the sighting of a microlight flying over Kranskop. Anybody on the group perhaps? As a matter of interest, my Dad flew in my Aquilla during 2003 when he was 83 years old! Quite a character ...

I started flying because of Beaufort West airport. Stayed over there when they opened the first time. Now use it each year on the way down to the Argus. That first year there was a microlight book at reception. Started reading it, thought "I would like to do that!" and here I am many years later, ve...
