I had to make a trip into Aberdeen today for reasons which involve being a parent. Anyhow, we were just heading back to the Denburn car-park, and we came down the steps which are just to the left between the first and second car in the photo. the Denburn car-park was right behind me when I took this photo. Anyway, we were confronted by 3 traffic wardens, just as we rounded the corner. I had my camera with me, so I took this photo of them disappearing up the road. I wonder how many cars they ticketed?
Not that there was any chance of me getting ticketed. I'm a decent law-abiding citizen. I even paid for two hours when it turned out one would have been enough. Ah well, better safe than sorry I suppose. Besides which, driving into Aberdeen today was horrendous, a combination of the salt off of the road and the sun directly in front all the way in, made the journey rather unpleasant. Plus, there are numerous road works in operation right now. There must be Third World roads better than the A96, I'll bet there are too!
I also tried my hand at Port Forwarding my router today. It claims to have been successful, but I see no noticeable improvement in my dismal download speeds. However I am getting the message "Your Internet connection is working like it should", which has replaced the previous "Your connection is awful, better forward a port" message. I'm sure things will improve though, otherwise it's back to the drawing board!
