This blog is one way I am offering to share with fellow Third Agers, what I have learned, and have experienced, through a lifetime of using IT. I think of this as ‘thought grazing’ by us ‘silver surfers’ – click on the link above for a fuller explanation – particularly for those members of the University of the Third Age in Cardiff.
The two most recent posts to the Blog appear in the feed below. To see them fully and either Comment, or Reply to a Comment, you will need to click on the title of the Post first so that it opens in a window by itself.
If you’re a Cardiff U3A Computer Group member, after Login, you will also see Private posts in the feed below, and be able to read the content of Member Posts, or Meeting Notes, from the Menu above.
Once you’ve logged in you’ll also be able to view some guidance on how to use the site from the Cardiff U3A Computer Group menu.
Enjoy!

A map of Cardiff
So much to search for, the traces of a Cardiff that no longer exists. The railway stations that have gone (2); the covered canal (Churchill Way); the canal that’s moved (by the New Theatre); the canal tunnel(s) – Crockherbtown (Queen Street East) and beside the castle and Queen Street West; was there a canal “flyover” near the Law Courts; presumably the original route of the Glamorganshire Canal went down to meet the Taff before Brunel moved the river for his Great Western Station? I also didn’t know that Bute Street originally extended to The Hayes!
Great fun.
