there is an email list for blind square users and the developer invites
suggestions from people particularly since Sound Scape has become open source
software as he is interested in developing blind square to incorporate some of
the features of soundscape.

Hello Folks,
We offer our condolences to the family of the late Gerry Ellis.
May he rest in peace.
There were 9 participants for today's technology meeting.
Cearbhall was having much trouble in acting as the host, as his signal was
very poor.
He logged out and in again, but continue to have trouble with his setup.
Albert suggested he try and log in next week, using his desktop pc with his
Panasonic microphone, and Cearbhall is going to try this out, to see if he
gets a better connection.
Stuart talked about using his Revolut card account.
He said that when going to the UK, he can change the card to that of
working with sterling.
Go to your Revolut app, and go to exchange currency near to transfer money,
and scroll down until you see Sterling, and click here, and now everything
will appear in Sterling.
To put and log money to your Revolut account, Go to your app, and look for
Add money.
Click here and enter your iban number for your current account or your
credit card account,
And your Revolut card will add the money you want to transfer.
If you want to give somebody else some money , all you meed is there phone
number, click this number, and the money you want to transfer will be
transferred over there and then.
There was also talk of the Vault, feature in the app, where one can store
their money and
Setup a facility to pay some monthly bills or direct debits.
Tom had a problem when in What's app, his phone said to shut down, and when
he did this , it took an age to come back again.
Bert said that he could have asked Hey Siri, to restart his smart phone,
and this would be much quicker.
Cearbhall told us of his walk around Bray, using Sound Scape and also Blind
Square, and Lasarillo.
Lasarillo called out in a male voice the names of the various shops he was
passing. While Sound Scape told him when he was coming to a junction and
named the various roads and streets he was near.
Bert told us that Blind Square have a feature where one can Plan a journey
or Track a walk.
Martin suggested that Cearbhall inform the NCBI, who are working on that
open source software which will be vacated by Sound Scape aroung June
this year.
Perhaps they could devise a visually impaired friendly app comprising the
best features of Blind Square, Lasarillo, and Soundscape.
What a performance by the Irish Rugby team in defeating Scotland,
Hopefully we will be able to put out 15 healthy players to play the old
enemy England next Saturday, and make it a great St. patrick's weekend. With
another victory making Ireland six nations Grand slam champions.
That's all Folks
Paul
