Managed to get quite a bit of work done before hospital appointment - which predictably took a long time, but finally sees an end to the whole silly broken arm episode, as the consultant discharged me. A bit more physio, but otherwise I can expect gradual improvement over the coming months and no long-term damage. Played with gnome-vfs quite a bit, but try as I might cannot get sensible things out of a GnomeVFSFileInfo struct. It's driving me nuts, but I know its almost certainly my fault. Don't think I've got a full hit of the locally prevalent virus, but felt pretty useless all day, and had some - well, symptoms shall we say? Feel exhausted and ready for sleep.
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.
