Life on the Wild side

Northumberland can be pretty wild sometimes...

And Again...playing with Linux... and thinking of a Family I knew in Serbia :D

Well this time I've moved on up to Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon (7.10) came out on October 18th so its fresh and new - and since I'm exploring my music just now (i've already changed my background to a nice blue colour with some crescent-shaped silver motifs on it - its beginning to look cool :D ! Thanks for the comments.

Serbia... I've been there, I think! It was before the war when it was Yugoslavia, in a place called Split by a wonderful lake - I met a family there - hospitality was superb and I tasted some of their wine - Oh My - I took three bottles back with me but had I known about the war I might have taken a case back since I can't find the family anymore ... Still I got a new friend in Serbia and that's good - Any friend is a better start than making war!

Hello,from Serbia, Belgrade. Glad to be your friend! Did you know that Prince Charles have close connections with Serbia? When you were there /in Split/ and was that Serbian family?
My friend, I must tell you that Split is in Croatia, another ex-Yugoslav Republic, which was in war with Serbia. Now relationship is so much better, diplomatically, econommicaly, cultural especially. There were so much refugees from Croatia, some are coming back to live in Croatia, some of them are staying further in Serbia...I must tell you that I hate any war, especially that war...
My Mom is from Croatia, my husband is Catholic, my family Orthodox...A lot of suffering ended, hope nothing like that will never happen...

I intend to upgrade my Acer Aspire lap from Feisty F to Gutsy G. soon. It will be really nice to see your Ubuntu 7.10 desktop screenshot on your blog - I am curious. Hope you can upload it soon, cause I have probs with upload /internal server error 500/. :frown:

Yes, I get Croatia confused with Serbia too. Actually I'd like to go to all parts of the czech republic whether its Serbia, Croatia or any other place I've missed out.

I'm sorry I haven't been on in a while - I injured my leg whilst riding my bike and its taken some time to get better - going to and from the hospital for dressings takes up a lot of time - still, I'm much better now and helping out in the garden growing Tomatoes, Wax Beans, Courgettes, Leeks, Apples and Blueberries -phew!

Keep in touch!
