Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

Up earlyish - awoken by sounds of much screaching, and jumping, it seems the trampoline had the desired effect. Read the instructions carefully. When, oh when, will our Asian manufacturing friends decided to use a translator, native in the target language ? Amused by the "Always consult your physician before attemping physical exercise" - surely that would place rather a strain on the National Health Service ? did someone really litigate on the basis that they had no idea that exercise might injure you ?
Off to NCC, ran creche. Back via Argos (to purchase a new router - sadly on a Sunday). The previous Belkin effort at least lasted for sixteen months which is somewhat less long than the three years I thought was bad for the last one. Are we all doomed to ever more flaky hardware ? Roll on the days of open-hardware, with (of course) home-made logic analysers to debug it with. I'm nearly certain that someone needs me to have a deep memory logic analyser.
Lunch, relaxed a little in the garden, and out to an Art exhibition in a chapel nearby, Hannah Webb exhibiting some fine pieces. Popped onto the Webbs, to catch up with Nick, Hannah and Joni. Sat in the playground in the sun for a while, and visited an ancient cluntch quarry now filled with trees.
Back, bathed babes, put them to bed, packed, and packed for OSCON / GUADEC.
