Getting ready for going to Scotland!

Little Bytham to Killearn map
The route from Little Bytham to Killearn

Since it’s not all at all, till I set off to Scotland. I have been washing my car all set for the long 320 mile drive up to Killearn to spend Christmas and New Year with my family. Of course when it gets to Sunday, I bet it will look like I have not even washed my car. Oh well.

The map to the right, shows the 320 mile route I take from Little Bytham to Killearn. It’s not a bad route. Lucky since I first started to do this journey lots of the route has been upgraded. Even in just the last 2 or 3 years, they have added another 20 miles of motorway. Which does really speed up the journey time.

People often ask why I don’t get the train up. Well it just costs way to much. I also have to get a lift at each end to and from the train stations. Adding around 1 hour to start and end of the journey. Also if I take the train once up in Scotland I have no way to get around. Other than the bus. No way I am paying £10 return just to get to and from Glasgow.

I am up. I like going into Glasgow and lots of other places you just can’t get the bus to. Also I like to be to do what I want, when I want. Not have to wait hours for a bus to turn up!

Now got an wireless network card

Edimax N600 Wireless PCI-e AdaptorHappy days now got a Edimax N600 Wireless Dual-Band (300Mbpsx2) PCI-e Adaptor for my new desktop PC. I ordered it from Scan. At a cost of £21.76 with £4.35 delivery on top. So a total cost of £26.11. I did not mind paying that, since Scan use DPD, who are most of the time very good.

Most of the time I use a wired network connect. But since I no longer have a laptop. I am taking my desktop PC with me to Scotland. My Mum and Dad’s Internet router is in another room, with no network cables going to the room I staying in while home back.

Now all that is on my wishlist for my PC desktop is a blu-ray writer :).
