Settling back in in Josselin.

I was pleased to be able to finally unpack my Tin Tin glasses. Haven’t christened them yet though.
The town is looking nice, they’ve got the decorations out for an upcoming medieval festival.
I bought a little bottle of pastis to add to my collection of odd French memorabilia.
An AI kit has been released for the Raspberry Pi 5 which piqued my interest, so I ordered a Pi 5 online. Arrived today. AI kit still to come.
It’s quite a good starter kit.
Setting the Pi up for remote access using the TV as a monitor.

Pauline is very fond of the TV program “Vera” and we found that it was avaliable in Sweden via svtplay.swe but only in Sweden. However if I set up the Pi as a wifi access point and connect it to Sweden via a VPN we can connect the Chromecast to the pi and stream to it with our phones via the VPN. Works like a charm, and a good use for the Pi. Also helps keep my hand in.

It’s very nice to be back in the village and to settle down to our routine here. Visits to the bakery next door for example!

      Thanks Janet, it’s nice to hear from you. I’ve enjoyed the Tin Tin books myself since I was a young boy, great writing, he’s very clever.
