Hi guys, a little update on life at the moment, as most of you know, i've been very inactive lately, between trying to get my photography business off the ground with help from the princes trust, I've also been trying to find a new place to live as where I am now is just too far away from family, so I'm moving just a few miles away from them on the glorious and picturesque Isle of Anglesey.

I'm getting the keys at some point next week for a place in Llangefni which is pretty central to everything, so it'll work out well for me and my partner.

I'll keep you posted on upcoming developments.

I have done a little Googling.
It looks like a beautiful island. I must admit I have never heard of it before.

there's an airport nearby but it's for light aircraft as it's also the training ground for the royal air force (google RAF Valley), but you're welcome round for a cup of tea ;)

I've lived there before but only for a few weeks, it's a lovely place to live but a little isolated, I'm glad fibre optic is available where we're moving to though, can't deal with copper bb.

Aren't you the lucky one, still copper here, although fibre is supposed to be coming this way this year. This is what I have to put up with over Wi-Fi on my Asus, I'm in the living room and the router is down the other end of the bungalow. I'd probably get a better speed from my desktop because that is Ethernet connected.
