The iPad
Last week saw the long awaited announcement from apple on there new product; the iPad. The iPad is basically a large iPhone, but a very powerful one at that.
I love its look and features and can’t wait to get my hand on one in March.
2009 has been Cambridge University’s 800th anniversory and throughout the year there have been a number of events to celebrate this. This weekend they had a Light Show on the Senate House of Kings College, were they projected images onto the building. It was truly impressive:

After a week of heavey snow, today it has started to melt. Is this the end of the snow for this yaer? If you believe the weather men, it isn’t , more snow is due back in the next week!
I’ve been using a new app on my iphone over the past couple of weeks, Trafficmasters ‘Companion’.
This App is differant from normal Sat Nav apps as it is only 5Mb is size, this is because it has no maps. When you start it up and enter your destination, the app goes online to Trafficmasters Servers which then work out the best route taking in to account the latest traffic conditions, these are then downloaded to you iPhone.
Instructions are then given by a very clear voice with turn by turn directions. It is very simple but works very well.
Having been a TomTom user for some years, I have to say I love this app with its simple interface.
Since Thursday Evening we’ve had snow and icy conditions, very pretty but a nightmare to drive in!
Even the Close had its fair share of the Snow.
On Friday it took me 3 hours to get to Cambridge!
Had a lovely day today in Woodbridge. Today was there annual Christmas fayre in the Thoroughfare, great day for everyone, the weather was very good to.

What is happening to Ipswich Town FC?
Kevin Nolan scored a hat-trick as Newcastle thrashed Ipswich to move two points clear at the top of the Championship table on an afternoon rich in drama and emotion at Portman Road.
There were generous tributes to former Ipswich and Newcastle manager Sir Bobby Robson before the match and during half-time.
But three goals in four first-half minutes from the visiting team ensured that it would be another miserable afternoon on the pitch for Roy Keane’s team.
Nolan opened the scoring with a header and quickly added to that with a composed finish. Ryan Taylor’s free-kick ended the quick-fire scoring spree and ensured the game was over as a contest by the break.
Nolan’s second header of the match shortly after the restart completed his hat-trick and left Keane looking furious as he watched from the home dug-out.
Ipswich have yet to win in the Championship this season and have now made their worst start to a league campaign – a sequence that increases the pressure on Keane to rapidly find a winning formula.
