A busy couple of days - despite feeling confused and useless in the office! Lots of changes going on, and some of the managers seem to prefer to manage this in a piecemeal and selectively secret fashion. Shame, because the senior manager concerned is working hard to be fair and considerate. Completed answers for the questions put to candidates in the GNOME Foundation Elections. My answers seem very buzzwordy and a bit pompous in the face of others, but I think I gave good account of my skills. Hard to convince people I'm not a single-issue candidate because of the freshness of the Membership debacle. New phone arrived - I'd asked for a 'long' phone because I have a strange paranoia that my voice won't go around the corner and into the microphone on these small modern things. Call centre type was confused, but offered a flip phone which he thought was longer 'unflipped' than the latest tiny Nokia effort. Large Parcelfarce bag arrived, containing smaller box, containing still smaller Samsung box, which contained a sort of jewellery presentation box which contained a tiny little blue telephone! At first I was scared. A few test calls later and I love it very much. Glumness about the place today.

I've had a home on the web for more years than I care to remember, and a few kind souls persuade me it's worth persisting with keeping it updated. This current incarnation of the site is centred around the blog posts which began back in 1999 as 'the daylog' and continued through my travels and tribulations during the following years.
I don't get out and about nearly as much these days, but I do try to record significant events and trips for posterity. You may also have arrived here by following the trail to my former music blog Songs Heard On Fast Trains. That content is preserved here too.
