Distance
So, the plan remains to move to Canada. As those of you who are up on the whole plan thing are aware, this has been the plan for a long time, and we poke this plan with pointy sticks every so often just to check its not curled up in the corner and died. It…

Less plan, more replan
So, I had good intentions for today. I thought I’d wash, get dressed, and work. Take a brief break to run some batteries to the metal recycling with Nikki and her handily available review Renault ZE (she asked for a real world test suggestion, I thought running the half ton of batteries to the scrap…

More techery geekery
So, I have so far failed in my quest to lay my hands on a Slim Devices slimp3 (or any of the later Squeezebox with a VFD display). And so it has come to pass that I have spent a few (literally £3) on a new microSD card with which will allow me (hopefully) to…

She riiiiides. Sorta.
So, a while back, some of you may recall that I bought and brought home a rusting heap. The plan was to get a bike for Kathryn, but my fondness for things ancient and solid overwhelmed my common sense (not difficult). And I was somewhat optimistic about the state of the bike when I bought…

Post nights geek
…I started this post while I was on nights, so…err… yeah, make of that what you will. Now I’m sleep deprived (or depraved) instead. So, whilst I’m starting to poke at my audit with sticks whilst I’m still on nights, I’m also having a toy with the concept of ceasing to have CDs and DVDs…

Spoilers may well abound (I don’t think they do, particularly, but hey, tread carefully people).

Be more careful, Kate.
So, I knew my liver function test results were fine, but was under the impression my cholesterol levels were not-great. Err, high, would be the word. Obviously, there’s good and bad cholesterol. I couldn’t remember the numbers, the overall value was on the high side, and so paranoia kicked in. I’ve been mentally beating my…

A visit to the engineers
So, I toddled along to meet my prospective engineers today. Having had a brief e-mail conversation in which I sent them some diagrams (not of my making) of the motor, and describing what I was hoping to achieve, and then having had a chat with the big cheese from the company (it’s not a big…

Positive / negative
So, today is a day with occasional frustrations, and attempts to maintain optimism. I’m waiting for feedback from Cardiff U on my dissertation. The question of how to develop it into something that’ll pass hovers in my brain, especially since I realised that thanks to moving deadlines I’m now running one month short at the…
