Frisbee!!

2009 February 22
Aerobie Pro

Edit: This is post 200 on my blog!! The next 200 should come quicker I hope!!

Yesterday was a good day. Cat and I went to town to go to the bank, and to buy some fruit. It was a glorious day, the sun was very bright, and it was warmer than it had been for ages.

When we got home we watched Battlestar Galactica over lunch, and then went for a walk to the field behind our house. We took my Aerobie Pro with us. It was my present from Cat at Christmas. I'd wanted to give it a try since then, including when Adam and I went to Salcey Forest, but never got the chance to give it an airing.

The Aerobie is advertised as world record breaking, so I was hoping it would fly a good distance. It did! Even with our sloppy style, we were both able to lauch it over 50 metres. I daresay we got some to go over 100 metres. We both got lots of exercise chasing it! I loved it, and will be doing it more often!

Back home, we spent the rest of the day watching Battlestar Galactica. We've made a start on season 2. So we are about a quarter of the way through!!

Also yesterday I started experimenting with TwitPic, which allows me to upload a picture link to my tweets. The way O2 sends emails via multimedia messages, means that this service is pretty much the only one I can use. The only downside to it, is that it puts the link to the image before the text (something the Twitter iPhone app doesn't do - it uses the API) which seems to be the wrong way round. It also means I can't send @Replies or direct messages. For the past 9 months, the guy who owns the site has been promising to sort something out, but nothing as yet has surfaced in the real world. Still it's acceptable for zero cost :)
