Let > spend the night downloading RedHat and Ximian updates. Woke early and got configuring. Wandered out to trading estate and got soaked. The lack of pavements for much of the way also put me in mortal danger - surely I'm not the only person living within easy walking distance of such an 'out of town development' who chooses to walk? Purchased budget carry case for the notebook. Decided to see parents. Got soaked again walking from Highbridge station to their place. On getting back, set about dealing with my Lucent Winmodem. Got a driver here, and with this advice, I managed to get it going. Amazed and pleased. Now I suppose I should tackle that sound strangeness.
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.
