Industrious day. Cleaned everything. Attempted to iron stuff - not as easy as it looks. Spent a long time typing for money - its hard to work on something you perhaps wouldn't normally read and not feel the urge to edit it! Still, its money - and that's a sorely needed commodity here right now. What looked like a nasty bug in gtkdial turns out to be a strange error generated by YaST (the SuSE config tool) and the way it sets up modems. Events early in the day remind me how much is very uncertain still, despite the relative peace and stability which seem to have descended here lately.
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.
