Prior to travelling anywhere I “favourite” key places of interest that we may like to visit on our adventure so it’s ready to go when we land. There is only one app that I repeatedly use across all the countries that we visit: Google Maps. ![]() courtesy of Jonathan Sacks – Everybody Hates A Tourist Please follow him on Instagram Foursquare While it’s great to randomly find those yourself, a useful travel app like Field Trip can help you find even more of them. The thrill of finding a fantastic new spot is one of the best parts of traveling. Field Trip will send you notifications as you move, helping you find cool places to check out. The Field Trip app is filled with information about interesting sights around you from a variety of categories, including architecture, historic places & events, lifestyle, food, drinks, & fun, cool & unique, and art & museums. But what about the great things in the other direction, or down another street? That’s where my favorite travel app, Field Trip, comes in.

And when I am technologically fine, the problems come with GoogleMaps, which obviously does not show all the tracks in the middle of Uganda or Madagascar. The Internet is not always available, and even when I can find cheap sims or Wi-Fi, the network is almost always really bad. The problem that I encounter more often is that I have difficulties in finding my way through the country, especially if I am on a road trip, as signs are not very common. I work, live and travel in countries that are off the usual travel plans. courtesy of Marianne Rogerson from Mum on the Move Make sure to Follow her on Instagram CityMaps2Go The best bit – no chain shops are included on the app this is for independent, specialty shops only.

When I finally take the ‘dirt nap’ all of that will go away, so I write it down, albeit deployed in fictional and hopefully interesting way. The good, the bad and sometimes the seriously ugly. In the middle part of my life I was too busy working for a living while also collecting thoughts, experiences and observations about the world we live in, societal foibles and the human condition. When I was young, I didn’t know shit and lacked any real experience in the world. Why the hell, I write so many stories and why so damn late in life. Lastly, since I self-publish, all books are set in slightly larger than normal type, to be easily read with tired eyes, in dim light or dark alleys while hiding from a villainous character. Wells The Time Machine or Remarque’s All Quiet on the Western Front carry as much message and emotional impact as huge volumes. I find that shorter books like Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men, H.G. I have waded through some books up to 1,400 pages, like Watership Down or The Stand and enjoyed them. Endless, convoluted sub-plots and characters won’t be found either.Īs a writer, I am also a reader. Readers, including myself, enjoy adding imagination and visualization for themselves. I rarely write for the purpose of entertainment alone nor do I think that every pimple on a character’s face, object or location needs diarrhea of the word processor to describe. Since I don’t write those genres, it doesn’t matter much. Making stuff up for the sake of doing so is not necessary unless I’m writing fantasy, Gothic Romance or sword and sorcery alternate world adventure. Situations I have personally encountered. Many characters are based on real people I've known.

PANZER CORPS 2 REQUIREMENTS SERIESFor someone new to the series I think PC1 offers considerably more content, but if you're limited in time (say 20-30 hours) I think PC2 is the better purchase. I miss the dozens of new features too much. I've enjoyed my time with PC1 more than PC2, but it's almost impossible for me to go back now. Also, PC2 runs my gpu really hot, which may be a concern to you. Now the map and pieces are realistic, but with the same boardgame scale? It reminded me a lot of going from Civ 4 to 5.

I have become quite evangelical about the use of macros, currently using both Keyboard Maestro and Soundflow to automate as much as possible. One other thing to consider is actually minimising the use of the mouse/trackball/tablet as much as possible. It’s also important to ensure you have adequate wrist support, so just as essential as the devices are the gel pads I have sitting below the keyboard, trackball and tablet. The scroll wheel becomes indispensable in many applications, and the four buttons can be programmed to perform different app-specific functions. It’s a solid, well built and responsive input device.

I switched to a trackball, and then some time later developed pains across my hand, so switched back to the pen and tablet. Predictably, sometime later I started to notice pain in my shoulder whenever using the tablet - caused by the minor but repetitive pressure applied whenever pressing the pen down. Also, I found myself working a lot quicker, being able to move around the real estate of the screen so much faster - and using the pencil tool to draw out unwanted clicks became a breeze. The hand, being in a more vertical position, felt more recognisable and natural, with less ‘gripping’ to add prolonged stress to all the muscles and tendons in the active limb. Initially, it felt a little strange and unwieldy, but by swapping back to the mouse every so often after a couple of days I found myself using the tablet all the time. Nothing felt comfortable or efficient until I borrowed a Wacom pen and tablet. ![]() ![]() ![]() That April, he went on to the lead role in the short-lived CBS sitcom Dreams, in which he played an aspiring musician in a band of the same name.
