    Oddly I get adverts for S&W and Barrett.

    I'm unsure of quite why.

    Tea: Chilli con carne with rice, stewed pears sans custard, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.

    The mince in the chilli was 5% fat.

    You can tell that alright.

    The mixed pork & beef was rather better in this regard, particularly in terms of flavour, though that might be explained by me cooking it rather more.

    Found some old business cards & spent a vaguely inneresting half an hour googling for same.

    One of them is a town councillor now.

    Whereas I can't find my butty from Cwmbran.

      Don't know of those companies but I won't Google them or I'll start getting their ads too.

      PS Darn it. The sexy knickers thing didn't work this time, I'm still getting oak cabinets. Have to clear me cache maybe.

        So I appear to have developed a fascination for Indian Street Food videos on Youtube, more specifically thud involving variations on omelettes and other egg dishes.

        This one is just mind boggling.

          Just spent wasted half an hour potching about with an LC filter I found (i.e. stole) from the slough of despond junk pile.

          Turns out it's a 3kHz low pass 600 ohm LC filter.

          Dunno the shape but it's close to being butterworth from the looks of things (judging by the filter calculator thingie I found on the interweb).

          Am I you?

                Decided to make the switch from Sage One (or whatever they rebranded to) to Xero so I've spent since about 5.30pm tinkering around with setting my new accounts up.

                Is it sad that I really enjoy doing this?

                    I still need to get this place sorted out so the electric bloke can replace the consumer unit and test all the sockets next week. Progress so far: none

                      You should see my office.

                      Entertainment: 5 minutes of "Landward" on BBC Scotland.

                      10 minutes of "Wild Shetland" on BBC2. The lonely Arctic Tern turned me off that.

                      Now reduced to watching "Andromeda" S1 E1 on "HorrorChannel".

                      It's a long time since I watched that.

                      It started off reasonably well then went downhill when the writer was sacked & hit rock bottom with S5.
