Good evening guys, it's actually 30 in the morning over here on Saturday so we're a little bit ahead of you. We've got 8 hours so we're going to be messing with the clock tomorrow so I think we're down to 7 hours. Yeah I'm in the centre of the UK about 20 miles south of the city of Birmingham so you can find Birmingham on the map. I'm just a little bit south of there in the county of North Worcestershire which is what I call it just called Lesley-n-a-Shire. It saves you guys having to get your teeth around Worcestershire. Yeah as I say I sort of went to bed, woke up early, got back to sleep so got up, got dressed and come in the shack, made a coffee, had a phone and made tea. And I was just sat here listening I believe there was some sort of worldwide contest or competition or something on this weekend. So we'll have a fiddle about with the HF and have a play with that today and see how we go. But unfortunately there's an awful lot of noise where I live being in an urban area and I felt I might just jump in the car and drive out of the town. I need to go back a mile or so and then all of a sudden I'll be able to hear something. But that's about it, as I say it's pitch black, it's not raining that much I can tell you. And we're round about 8 or 9 degrees something outside, it's a nice 24 degrees in the shack so it's very comfortable. So yeah, might have a play this weekend and I believe there's a few nets going on with the ladies shine or whatever it is. So we'll try and call into those, time difference allowing but as I say with this buddy swap over to GMT from British Summertime. Screws all my timings up, my mental calculations of timing. And yeah the call again is number 2, Echo, number 0, Lima Radio, big long range vehicle. Although I'm hoping I'm studying at the moment for the full license so hopefully within 6 months we'll have a different call form but we'll wait and see. I'll be changing the 2E0 to an MA to an M9 but it's not an adversary at the moment so we'll leave that one alone, no point changing something. Nobody's got used to it, maybe a series change, I can't understand. I don't know what else we can do. Oh you're now allowed to with your full license holder, you can change your call form every 5 years. Why anybody wants to church the call form is that 5 years ago people were used to it, why have a completely different call form? Shapes my head in disbelief as they say. Anyway my tonight control from early morning in the UK from 2E0 LRB, Les in the Shire.
