  1. “Origin scan: Shanghai, CN”. w00t! New shiny thing from Apple is finally on it’s way!
  2. RT @Si: Excellent news for open data - UK postcodes to be freely available from April 2010 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8402327.stm
  3. Water now stopped dripping from ceiling after the last hour spent in the loft clearing a blocked drainpipe with a bit of bendy wire.
  4. Today’s timesink courtesy of #zendframework not doing what it says on the tin: http://framework.zend.com/issues/browse/ZF-7656 #zf
  5. That's better, mental constipation relieved. Now: coffee, a shortbread biscuit, coding, and a new @fleepcom mix.
  6. Lost way too much time to admit(!) yesterday scratching my head over this: http://framework.zend.com/issues/browse/ZF-7793 #zendframework
  7. Got up at 05:45. Did some washing up and fixed my kitchen scales. Went back to bed.
  8. Kenwood: fixed. Cake: baked. Roast: cooking. Baby: asleep. Beer: cold. Tomorrow: Monday. Bah.
  9. My old Kenwood is rapidly losing torque. This could spell disaster for my banana cake. Time to dig-out some spanners and open this thing up.
  10. Recovering data with help of trusty 10 year old Titanium PowerBook G4. Next, let’s see how easy it is to restore a system from Time Machine.
  11. Our iMac G5 disk has gone wonkey. Yay for FireWire target disk mode! Balls, just discovered the FireWire port on my MacBook is kaput. Tea.
  12. And the 1st prize for the best jar of jam at the Best of Bedminster urban village show goes to… Me! Baking a loaf of bread to celebrate.
  13. Today’s harvest: sweetcorn, butternut and Lebenese squash, round courgettes, runners, green toms, and a girt big bag of spuds. #allotment
  14. La la la – I can't hear you – la la la. Marking all Snow Leopard news as "read", awaiting the Ars Technica review.
  15. 3 flan tins lined with shortcrust pastry, but the Tarte aux Pommes bakefest delayed until tomorrow. Bonus: plum jam tartlets + a cup of tea.
  16. @laurakfrancis The Krisk (brandname) bean slicer is a little kitchen gadget that strings and slices long beans really quickly and easily.
  17. Runner beans again for tea. Loving my Krisk bean slicer (sad but true)! #allotment
  18. Great to catch-up with @maryloosemore, @philgyford, Mr Sunshine, and Samuel Adams, today.
  19. A splendid day for a party! Packing-up the car, off to Abbey Dore.
  20. Back from town with: a birth certificate for little Ross, a bush basil plant from the farmers market, and a new shirt from Urban Outfitters.
