        Gosh.

        Long time since I've done that.

        Can't remember the syntax, now where did I put that dos 3.3 commands book?

              Call out to a Windows Script Host file that does things sensibly and returns the result?

                    What's on the holiday agenda today Nor?
                    Wine tastings, trekking around the locale, got some truffles at the market and visited the local mustard factory.

                    Bumped into a bloke at a local bar who turned out to be a sommelier, who offered to give us a tour of some local vineyards. This was great as it meant that MrN didn't have to do all the driving. Bloke's car is kaput, so back to square one

                      Loads of rain, accompanied by strong winds, which are blowing lots of leaves off the trees outside my window. Looking properly autumnal now

                      In other news, I've finally got this test-first workflow running smoothly, at least on this project - though I do seem to have been spending a lot of time re-organising the tests whenever I try to actually get something done, up to this point
