Hello World
Pammies comes to you from Hampshire in the UK. I am fortunate enough to live in this
area, which is surrounded by pine trees and heath land. There are many lovely walks
in the surrounding area. We can even boast our own local racecourse
"Tweseldown."
The Basingstoke canal flows through Fleet, Aldershot, Farnborough, Woking, and
Weybridge, where it then joins the river Thames. During the Easter and Bank Holiday
weekends the canal boat the "John Pinkerton" operates along this Hampshire stretch of
water, and is very popular with locals and tourists alike.
Fleet pond is a nature reserve set in 135 acres, the pond occupying half of this; it
is the largest fresh water lake in Hampshire. Local people are used to the annual
site of the Canadian geese holding up a line of traffic, while mother and chicks
cross the road.
Education
Education plays a large part in my life, although I work during the day, in the
evenings, and at weekends, I partake of Open University courses. My love is anything
to do with computers. For anyone wishing to know the basics of how their PC works I
would suggest a visit to the OU website, links are provided below.
Open University courses help you develop through knowledge, you can work on-line, and
at your own pace. My TMA for the course T171 was on Tim Berners-Lee, he was the
pioneer and paramount web developer, of the World Wide Web (www).
For my TMA, I was able to search the Web for detailed information. All web addresses
have www at the start of them, which you may well have used to access this website,
the address being http://www.pammies.com. The URL address helps to direct traffic to
its destination. By using this increasingly popular technology, we can find
information on just about any topic that may be of interest to us...
General Information
Pammies has links to local amenities like, Fleet Carnival; in addition, do not miss
the photographer Jonathan Mist beautiful photographs, some if which are taken of
wildlife along the Blackwater canal. In addition, why not view the beautiful work of
the artist Terry Harrison; he paints some stunning local scenes.
The Farnborough Bi-Annual Air Show is an extremely popular event, it brings many
tourists from around the country, and abroad being a much heralded event.
I also dabble in story writing between my university courses. As you will see I am
very much a novice at this, but it helps to take me away from reality, which we all
need now and again. 'The Eye of Ra' story has six chapters. You can access
these by using the 'My Links' section. Alternatively, I have written a short story
(Novelette) 'STAR'.
