Punted

I have punted my Facebook account, much like the Cakes did a while back. I was thinking about doing it anyway. But this was following an interesting Guardian article that made me actually get my arse in gear.

I have just managed to get my newer computer working again, which is a relief (thanks to the Cakes for the help!). This time, I have a better back-up strategy and more knowledge of how to trouble-shoot computer hardware, in case of any problems in the future. Luckily, I managed to save most of my data. All I need now is 1Gb of RAM, and The Cakes will be uncomfortably aware that on balance, I posses a superior machine.

The venerable Dr S has taken the train to her parents for Xmas. She asked me this morning if I was thinking of accompanying her to the station. Foolishly, and without thinking, I replied in the negative, as I don't really like protracted goodbyes. I was suddenly aware of a certain chill in the air, not altogether due to the time of year. Needless to say, I changed my mind.

Tonight though, I am planning to meet up with ol' Hairy Legs and Andy "Big Hair" Thompson (just back from London) at the Poet, which will be good. Kind of like a reunion of the old OOTB committee. In which case, we'll talk for three hours, and achieve very little.
