Rebuilt GNOME2 from the ground up. All went swiftly and smoothly, and much improvement - especially in stability - is noted. GTK+2.0 arrived at last, and was immediately Slashdoted - with the usual display of ignorance and stupidity following. Went to Burnham, where if anything the weather was more unpredictable and blustery that here. Holed myself up in the flat to avoid it. My eyeball hurts.
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.
