I decided to attend a display of technical equipment for people who have a disability today it was in Llandudno and it was quite interesting really I didn't find anything that would help with being able to see some kind of print better but I managed to sort out a couple of other things. I gather its possible to get a screen reader that reads Welsh at a price which is a shame as there are free ones on the net that read English but there are no free ones on the net that read Welsh. I have also been having problems with the buses regarding the ticket machine which is difficult to hear at times and the guy in the exhibition understood my plight and said its the fault of the old machines that they have, my problem is regarding the noise it makes when putting my pass on it sometimes the noise it difficult to hear and the light is also difficult to see.  They are going to get new machines in the future it seams but I guess we will have to struggle on for while I suggested the machines h...

I'm sure its about time it warmed up and that I can stop using the central heating.  This winter seems to be going on and on and I will get another massive gas bill from those robbing utility companies.
