  18. Brush fire 3 miles to the South in Moraga - 3 fire planes circling, 2 helicopters dropping water. Time to hit the roof with the hosepipe
  19. @ci50 Proud to be your second follower. Happy birthday!
  20. Things I really hate about my locked-down office laptop: in London but it still insists on CA time. Clearly I'm not trusted to change that.
