Apply to young folk.<br />I have now read two books on the Kindle and have worked out how to download them on my laptop and have them appear on my reading list.

I hope the van problems will be easy (cheap) to sort out.<br /><br />There is a PC program called Calibre which can change files between many different ebook types and recognises many ebook readers to transfer the boos to. Not having a Kindle I don't know whether it works with that. I used to use it to convert to the epub format used by my Sony ebook reader.Midmarsh Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10980417659811194899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060152237863452651.post-27044195612567980422012-12-22T08:28:33.499+00:002012-12-22T08:28:33.499+00:00Timing is everything, isn't it!

Glad to hear you are keeping your sense of humour anyway...what else can you do! I think if you take the high road and I take the low road, I'll be in Scotland 'afore you, at this rate ;) Wishing you and your little devils the best of the Christmas season :) Glohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09532995590131801962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060152237863452651.post-43777199790125241902012-12-22T07:11:21.320+00:002012-12-22T07:11:21.320+00:00I'm a Kindle addict.

Although you can load books onto your computer, can't say I enjoy reading them there - can't curl up with a laptop.<br />Sorry about the confusion about where I'm posting. Loose and Leafy has been there for donkeys years - http://looseandleafy.blogspot.co.uk/ <br />Blogger got in a muddle about how much space we all have on Picassa and that sent me off on a trail of URLs for the daily picture but they are currently going to http://messageinamilkbottle2.blogspot.co.uk/<br /><br />(Might move back to http://picturesjustpictures.blogspot.co.uk/ some time.)<br /><br />Hope your van gets sorted soon. You'll want to feel mobile as well as be dry over Christmas. Hope you don't float away or get too cold.<br /><br />Best wishes for Christmas and for wonderful travels in 2013.<br /><br />LucyLucy Corrander Now in Halifax!https://www.blogger.com/profile/14685242329129914772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060152237863452651.post-82646053224616001702012-12-21T22:21:27.611+00:002012-12-21T22:21:27.611+00:00Cheers Horst....You too...I do but I'm trying ...Cheers Horst....You too...I do but I'm trying to remember exposure settings when I have forgotten the meter.

My Kindle is for wifi, I'm not sure if the procedure is different with 3G but I do my searching on the computer and the book gets sent to my Kindle. (I think I can search from the Kindle as well but I've not really tried that.) If you like classics then there are lots of free books.
