    Been getting on with "killer in my village". About murder in Windsor in 1981. About half a mile from where I used to live.

      Anniversary today. What a lucky man I am. Went for a lunchtime walk with Mrs Scruff through the woods.

      Dinner if fish fingers with home made ratatouille. Dessert is orange jelly made with whipped evaporated milk whisked into it. Yummy childhood meal.

      Might have a Scotch, or a bottle of Cremant...

                    I've never tried writing an Apple Watch app before, but somebody on Twitter was going on about the Pomodoro technique, where you work for so many minutes then take a break for so many, and I thought it might be worth a try. So I fired up Xcode, and in less than an hour I had a working app for my watch that times twenty-five minutes when you press a button, then switches to a screen saying "Take a break!" with an alert sound and vibration. Then you tap the button on that screen and it goes back ready to start again

                    You can't currently configure the work time and break time durations, and it needs to be able to time the break and tell you when to get back to work, but I thought it was remarkably easy to get something basic but useful working
