I’ve got something called Repetitive Strain Injury. It’s effecting my typing. But I have help, and with the exercises etc., I should be ok.
I just have to type much slower, with flat wrists.
As for modelling that’s something which I will work on in due course. Strengthening exercises will hopefully help with that too.
It will maybe be a couple of years before it gets better.

Most people seem to use the keyboard's feet to prop it up at the back. I find this typing position uncomfortable then starts to become painful I pop them back in to make the keyboard flat & find it much more comfortable this way/
When I did IT support, I got the impression that most people stood them up because 'they have been put there so it must be good to use them'.
Find a position comfortable for you, although it sounds like it may be a little too late for this. Varying your position may also be helpful, just like you should regularly re-focus your eyes.
Giving your wrists a gentle shake or stretch every few minutes should help too.
I also have a chair with arms a similar height to my desk & find myself typing with my elbows rested on them.

The 16.48 from York to Hull
is as follows: A class 155 and a class 142. Guess which unit I’m travelling back to Hull in?

Just been chatting with friends.
Can the internet ever be 100% safe?
-
No! Any more than the physical world can be 100% safe. There will always be people out there who want to rob you, exploit you, con you and manipulate you. The internet, and the ability of computers to process vast amounts of data, gives them new ways of doing that. From the con artist convincing you to part with your money to extremist poltiician who uses your profile to whisper in your ear exactly what they know you'll respond to get you to part with your vote.
In many ways we're like a naive youngster moving to the big city from a remote village; the city offers new opportunities but also new dangers.
The only way to avoid some of its dangers would be to tightly control every aspect of it but that would be, in many ways, even more dangerous.

The Met Office have just imposed a terrible change to the weather website. It looks cluttered and dysfunctional. I will now have to go elsewhere for a forecast. It’s just so terrible, so illegible!

Just found this out from National Rail: A derailed freight train near Doncaster is causing disruption to journeys between Doncaster and Sheffield. As a result, services may be cancelled, delayed by up to 45 minutes, revised or diverted, not calling at Doncaster. This is expected to continue until the end of the day.

No tv service tonight. It just says No Service as opposed to No Signal. I don’t know what that means.....

When will trains be restored between Beverley and Bridlington? No one seems to know!
-
Train service between Beverley and Bridlington suspended until further notice owing to lightning striking equipment just north of Beverley last night. No replacement buses, taxis only! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-44991496

Another Monday in which things are going wrong. I live in dread of Monday’s!

There is a gas leak. Northern Gas Networks are in attendance. Whether I get evacuated I am not sure as yet.
-
Tempers flared between a passenger on the Northern service to Scarborough this afternoon. Such black times for the railway. I don’t recall anything like it before, and I sincerely hope it never happens again.
-
Some former Scotrail 158’s are today in use on the Hull to Scarborough services. Interesting times.
-
Trains between Hull and Bridlington are running about 20 minutes late this evening. Northern Fail indeed it Is!
-
Northern Railway. The new timetable has seen the reintroduction of Pacers in the Hull, Bridlington and Scarborough service. Bad ride, not enough seats. Same old story that just goes on and on. Roll on December, 2019 and the new trains.
-
The new Northern Rail timetables are awful. The services from Hull to Scarborough are no longer running from Sheffield with the same frequency, and who has made the decision to get all trains to call at Arram? Bad all round.

I am not able to get on thissite using my router. I can on the phone. Very odd.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Snow is coming on Sunday!

Was on a class 321 EMU coming back from Wakefield. It was giving out a strange metallic drippiing sound, from below the floor, every half second. No idea what it can have been.t

The booking office at Beverley station has been closed for the foreseeable future owing to extreme water damage. Also the platform ticket machine is not working and the platform display screen are out of use.
