Welcome

With over 50 years experience in Electronics, Communications and IT I decided back in 2017 that it was time to retire.
This is what Life in Retirement means for me.
This Blog will provide pointers into much more detailed pages of the various 'aspects' of my hobbies.
Or, you can of course browse via the menus above. Hope you find something there of interest.

Welcome
