The New Typecover

The new Surface Pro 4 certainly looked appetising to say the least. Better processor and higher resolution screen. But to be honest, I couldn't really justify an upgrade to my knee year old Surface Pro 3. The old unit was still going strong and the processor was still fast enough, certainly for what ever I was using the computer for.

It was mainly for letters in clinic, the odd email and of course scheduling into my Google Calendar.

But the new types cover which was launched with the new Surface was a big jump from the old one. And the good news was, it was compatible with the old notebook. Great!

It took a while before I could find a store that had it available far sales. So far, they only bundle it with the new Surface. And even harder to find one in black. I guessed I was lucky today and managed to pick one up. Not cheap, but it was certainly worth the investment.

It felt like I now own a new Surface!

Kenduri Done

Alhamdulillah. The event ran smoothly and Idlan did his reading, although he was anxious all through out the event. He was happy to get it over and done with.

He got bored during the Yaseen reading as his feet were aching and he asked to sit beside me. The ceremony was almost done by then. I ended up not being able to take much photos as Idlan asked me to stay near him during the event. He was really nervous.

We spent the rest on the afternoon eating after that and Syahril stayed until after his daughter taken a nap before going home.

All in all, everybody had fun. Idlan was relieved afterwards and asked me to take him to watch Star Wars. That would have to wait until tomorrow I was afraid. I wanted to spent the rest of the day at home with the guests.

Good thing that my Mum's maid would be staying overnight tonight as there were plenty of cleaning needed to be done. I had only about fourth hours sleep last night despite it being post-call and I think I might just doze off early soon.

All Set

Started the ward round really early this morning. It was going to be a big afternoon forward Idlan. We were having a ceremony to celebrate his completion of the Quran, his khatam.

He had been practicing all week and hopefully he wouldn't freak out at the event. Anita had been busy preparing and I did my part in making sure the ward were sorted out early on. Hopefully there wouldn't be many calls coming in.

Another role I would be taking would be being the photographer. So, all the tools were sorted and charged. X-T1 with the 10-24 zoom, X-Pro1 with the 35 f1.4 and the A7R mark II with the 90 macro attached.

Here we go!

Not a Happy Camper

We lost again. And the problem lately had been we were losing against teams we were supposed to crush. Bournemouth last weekend and now it was Norwich. At Old Trafford.

This was well below par. Yes, we were a team in transition but it looked like we had been in transition for too long. Even Ryan Giggs appeared rather annoyed and for the first time actually stood in the dug out. Clearly against Van Gaal's mantra of sitting still in his chair as he believed that he couldn't effect the players on the field once the game started.

Maybe the players needed cajoling. But clearly that wasn't enough.

Stranger things had been happening in football lately. Even the "Special One" got the sack. At least that man was asking for it.

Will Van Gaal suffer that same fate? Is there anybody available at the moment to be able to better him? Will Gary Neville return as the prodigal son one day?

We must improve. We has got the personnel. Obviously we would always be a few players short to be the better team but the rebuilding must have a direction. The worry now was I couldn't see where we were heading in the medium term, let alone long. And the short term prospect were clearly disappointing.

Will the winter bring changes? Or will it be more discontent?

All Them Photos

One of the pain of coming back from the holiday was going through the photo's taken during the trip and trying to sort, edit and then post them. And by a lot, I meant for the Fraser's Hill trip alone, I must've taken something like 600 snaps.

Of course, not all of those needed to be edited in the end. Some were duplicates or downright ugly snaps. But most made the cut.

It had been a week, and I was till only halfway through them. With tomorrow's event, it looked like there would be a ton more to process afterwards!
