Still sunny here, with small bits of white fluffiness hanging around

And the first batch has already sold out by the look of things!

I think the second batch goes on sale this time next week, but @boringconferenc (Twitter account names are one character too short) can tell you for sure

Sorry, ooh! Boring!

I don’t control admissions, so there’s nothing I can do to stop you

Looks like the next batch of tickets go on sale next week, presumably 13:00 on Friday like this week. But you’ll have to be there on the dot to get one - this batch seem to have gone in a minute or so, and now there is much wailing and gnashing of teeth on Twitter

Oops

Good job I didn't book a ticket.

As I went to put the event in my diary, I noticed that I'm in Oslo that weekend. Positioning ahead of my trip to Singapore in June.

I set up my calendar app to ping me with reminders on Mac, phone, and watch 24 hours before, two hours before, one hour before, and at the time. And I think I only just made it!

If I was you I’d cancel Oslo - Boring is much better at broadening the mind than foreign travel, and only a short walk from Holborn tube station

Just checked the car’s MOT status and it’s failed, then passed

One of the sidelights was bust apparently, so it failed on that, then they fixed it and it passed. As bulbs tend to go around a certain age, I should probably keep an eye on the others from now on as they’ll be likely to fail too

And there’s an advisory for a nail in the nearside rear tyre, which is extremely annoying as that’s the one with the spare on as of a few weeks ago
