Not referring to me I hope Don...

I must admit that this event is one of those where computer sent 
exchanges would score. Old fobey me always uses hand keying, on the 
basis that I have much more control of the sending. But some of those 
postcodes were right tongue twisters and I admit I had problems sending 
a few, especially with the deliberately introduced errors in some of 
the received ones.

35 QSOs here, reasonable for QRP at this time of day. Had some problems 
when a local TV turned on half way through, otherwise enough to keep me 
busy.

For a change I did not have to rush off to church right at the end. I 
am about to disappear off to Worcester for a pub lunch to celebrate my 
brother's ruby wedding, so a convenient way to start the day.
