A more positive day. Applied for a couple of local jobs, and bought my first ever book of self-adhesive postage stamps (I know, little things....). Spent more time on the config editor thingy (needs a snappier title, but can't get past gwvedit - snappy it ain't!). Generally frustrated with GtkCList irks. Later, got a call from someone half the town away who has found Pix - she is safe and well, and managed to negotiate railway lines, several major roads, and ended up on a housing estate. Just so happened this man went into the GP Surgery across the street where I'd put a poster. Going to collect her tomorrow. Spent most of the night on #gnome-help, and playing with Techbot, which I hope to do some work on next week sometime.
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.
