God, but the garden's a dark spludge at the edge of my consciousness. Mostly because the extent of poor-quality concrete sections makes it look like a builder's yard.

On the other hand, I have herb seeds that I can stick in pots on the windowsill and wait for a day when the weather stops being quite so biblical.

You know, I think I've pretty much given up any pretence of being some 'leet haxx0r/post-punk urban cyberhero now.

For the weekend, I bunked off to a campsite in Southwold with

jarkman and a set of people mostly from Nottingham Hackspace. The weather was pretty much exactly like OHM, in that it was pleasant, then it rained enough to flood the site, then it was seriously bright with a stiff wind, dead parky and then jolly pleasant while we ate everything left over before striking camp and charging off to look round the Cold War museum at (the ex-alleged-RAF) Bentwaters.

In between that there was some drinking, pottering about, lock-picking, drinking, sunsets, a mildly-organised visit to Tim Hunkin's workshop, drinking, a tour of the Adnams brewery, crotch-fire and some more drinking.

Also a lot of driving in shit weather and a lot of queueing in shit traffic.

Southwold is really jolly good. Not unlike Whitby, but much further away. There was only one g*th, too.

You know the tiresome people who go 'Stupid $inanimate_object!' when $inanimate_object has failed to live up to their physics- and/or sense-defying expectations?

They're going to be well buggered in the future of sentient objects. I mean, your toaster will put up with an amount of well-intentioned humour, but their constant mithering and blame-shifting will begin to grate, and before they know it, they'll be up before the beak at the European Court of Robot Rights. And not before time, the horrible bigots.
