Not a great day in many respects. Firstly, suffering from my flippant and idiotic sense of humour and needing to make a number of apologetic replies to e-mail received in the wake of some IRC sillyness. Second, discovered that I didn't get the job. Feel somewhat limited in my options from here on in. More hacking on gwvedit - most of the framework is done now, and its just a case of writing the backend to the preferences and file saving parts. Broken wvdial.conf files no doubt loom.
Caught up on a great deal of e-mail which has accumulated over the past few days. Another delivery of records and tapes due to my parents house move reveals a few treasures. Goodness knows where it's all going to be stowed however. Spent much of the day online upgrading various bits and bobs and chattering away. Need to pull my finger out this coming week and sort out DKK for GUADEC, and whether we have now synched with Euro time by moving into BST?
Woke up with recurrence of toothache. Usual tactics, including attempt to sleep it off. Finally gave in and bought strong painkillers. Balancing Energy finally opened today, so went over and leant support. Lots of coffee - and finally did some shopping. Later, had an experimental dinner and played word games. Very sleepy but seem to mainly have disposed of dental troubles.
Last couple of days are a bit of a blur trying to sort out things and generally wondering about job news. Not hugely encouraging meeting in Bristol early on. Straight back to Weston. Quite a bit of sleep. Food at the Brit later made a nice change - have been meaning to go shopping for days now!

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.
