Stuff Michael Meeks is doing
|
|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

Up, frantic present wrapping, and card writing. J. arrived downstairs,
her birthday - rather a poor showing present-wise (on my behalf). Packed lunch,
and everyone into cars. Drove to Alnwick gardens.
-
Queued at length, and started to wander - played at collecting water
in children's tractors; detoured via a rather excellent bamboo maze. Wandered
the rose garden, on to douse the children in the water features. Enjoyed some
of the excellent illustrations of various behaviours of water, soaked the babes
in the hydrostatic fountain, then dried them.
-
Picnic lunch - in some slight rain. Lugged E. pram and provisions up
the hill, admired the walled garden. Beat a hasty retreat to the extensive
tree-house - with much fun trying to wobble the dual suspension bridges.
-
Tea & cake, drove home. Out in the evening with J. for a
lovely meal across the road - we don't go out together enough - it's an
outrage. Unanticipated but appreciated birthday cake for J. arrived -
nice. Bed.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
