Episode 5

Hello everyone! Here is a temporary version of UER Podcast episode 5. As we've had some difficulties this version is without the usual theme music, but hopefully you weren't tuning in just for that. It was recorded some time ago but didn't get online until now. It's kind of podcast retroism already :-) Episode 6 will follow shortly.

Download it HERE - from Dropbox, LOL.

Enjoy!

Greetings ... stay tuned

Hello everyone, We're sorry for being total slackers :-) Some real-life things have got in the way of our podcast production and also the updating of this page. Naughty Wayne looks to have forgotten to put episode 5 online too so we're some weeks behind ourselves! It must have been a severe case of bootsale fever to blame. Wayne usually does the final editing & the theme music etc, I will have a go at getting these online (probably without the music, oh no ;) ) in the next day or two. Stick with us and we'll be back soon - better organised etc etc - maybe. Like we've often said on the podcast itself, we're ordinary technologically-minded people with jobs/lives/families, and our podcast reflects that we sometimes don't have the time or energy to do everything - but we get some satisfaction of making things work around competing demands on our time and finances. In the meantime, keep in touch with our Twitter feed for occasional stuff that we find interesting and perhaps you will too. Contact us there or at uerpodcast@gmail.com Best wishes, Andy Co-host
