Just managed to track down the Aiptek v3.15 drivers (after re-reading someone else's post on the matter). They're on their global sire (http://www.aiptek.com/), rather than their Taiwan site (http://www.aiptek.com.tw/). Go into support, then select any of the tablets listed, and download the USB version (ie those with a "U" at the end of the model number) for Windows XP & Vista.

I shall have to give these a go and see if they fix my problems with the pen only working for a couple of minutes. I'll let you know how I get on...

Whilst Jenny was playing with the band at the Selby Classic Motorcycle Rally, I managed (between showers) to grab a few shots of the bikes.

The bikes were all rather close together, and with lots of people milling around, it's difficult to get a good clean shot of individual bikes. I did get a couple of shots along the lines, showing different makes, and a couple of good close up shots (including this one).

The best of them have their own set on Flickr, and the remainder can be found in the Selby Classic MC Rally album, along with the shots of Jenny's band.

Jenny plays trombone for the York Railway Institute Golden Rail Band, and I've been taking photos of the band whenever I've been at jobs. Last year kind of got on top of me, so I processed the whole season in one go (well, several weekends). I've now put them up in their own section (York Railway Institute Golden Rail Band) on the photo album on this site.

I'm trying to keep more on top of things this year, and I've managed to post photos from the two jobs so far, Poppleton Show on 28 May 2007 and Selby Classic Motorcycle Rally on 16 June 2007 (today!).

The I've also moved the 2006 season photos into the same set of albums. Andy, who runs the band's website, should now have some photos from last year, so as soon as he tells me the website address, I'll post a link up.

Just seen some other photos from the regatta, including one from Chris Sims showing a near miss between our boat (Sunsail 39) and a large cargo ship! (Our view of this incident is here.) See Chris's full gallery here, which has some excellent shots - clearly someone was spending more time taking photos than sailing!

Meanwhile, Jamie Laramee's photos are on his Sailing set on Flickr.

As and when I get to see more photos, I'll link them here as well.

I've just about recovered from the Orange Sailing Regatta 2007. For the past few years, Orange has organised a regatta as a personal development exercise, and this year I managed to grab a place (albeit at the last minute). It was too much of an opportunity not to take the cameras, and I managed to grab a few shots amongst all the hustle and bustle of racing - not as many as I'd have liked, but sailing and taking photos at the same time isn't the easiest of things to do.

The full set is on the photo albums on here (Orange Sailing Regatta 2007), or selected highlights are available in a Flickr set.
