  1. Okay, time to finish making my pho and then settle down to some serious strawberry-eating.
  2. @ficflash A side effect of reading this blog post is that I dug out my copy of "Hunky Dory". Good narratives in the lyrics, actually.
  3. @flashquake Thank you! I do like editing.
  4. #MeatOnTheBeach had all the ingredients for the pho salad I'm making for lunch tomorrow, including spring rolls. I love the #Beach!
  5. @FARfetched58 Oh, stoopid security stuff. And SharePoint. And apparently there's a 50 MB cap on how much I can copy at once. So, you know.

  13. @FARfetched58 Do you mean this? debian.org/ports/powerpc/ I'm not up on Debian ('cept the Ubuntu flavour), but it looks like it's maintained.
  14. @Helenscribbles Morning Helen!
  15. I #amwriting an actual, non-fiction blog post! Exciting! Whaddaya mean, get a life?
  16. I have to say, after a day of fighting with Windows and MS-Office, it's lovely to work on my home #Ubuntu machine. Easy, pretty, hassle-free
  17. RT: @Litopia British police mount 2am raid to close public library, strip its books - utterly shameful litopia.tv/qh
