The VT Boys had a birthday again

The VT Boys had a birthday again last weekend, Mr.Gadget is 16 years old, time fights so much, I can remember the day as yesterday when he was born in his home in Cambridgeshire. We spend a nice but short day together as he wanted to go to the Hunstanton fireworks display that evening and have a nice meal out with is older brother and soon to be sister in law.

Mr.Gadget had even time spending two hours with his little sister playing Minecraft, which they both enjoyed. We had an nice birthday cake for him (Chocolate creme) and we had a small dinner as we had a late Mc Donalds breakfast that day.

The VT Boys are making an Hackingtosh again

The VT Boys are making an Hackingtosh again - Last weekend we had great fun making an new SandyBridge Intel i5 hackingtosh, this one was going to be fast, however we had a few issues, for a start we did not have a proper processor cooler, as the one we had did not fit. So Mr.Gadget improvised one, but after fitting we smelled a burning smell coming out of the computer so we switched it of. 
We are going to purchase a new fan, power supply just in case. Mr.Mac Senior made a Balti Curry which we both enjoyed and because Mr.Gadget was staying over we had on Sunday, sausages, leek, roast potatoes and gravy - yummy.
In a few days Mr.Gadget will have a birthday coming up, so we are going to cook something nice for him as well. We also had time to do up an Apple iMac 21.5" late 2009 model with MacOS 10.12.6 Sierra, it had a few issues as well but was running fine most of the time.
