No telly tonight other than The Repair Shop as I instead finished reading Dion Fortune's novel Moon Magic, being the sequel to The Sea Priestess which I read last week. Sadly, she died before she completed this one; but another member of her magical order was able to channel the final three chapters, so she completed it after her death

Goodnight all

Sunless.

Monday.

Telex machine gleaming again.

Entertainment: Discovering Roy Scheider, interrupted at the first ad break for an urgent bowel movement.

I hate watching stuff whilst hopping from leg to leg. .

And it's Belgrano Day apparently.

Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the grey gloom.

Lunch: scrambled egg and poached tomato on Morrisons wholemeal sunflower and spelt toast, bramble jelly sandwich, red corner yog, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.

Some other bollox on R4 whilst doing the dishes.

Freecell score: 90%, running average 84.xx%.

Tea: Chilli meatballs with rice n peas, some peach slices, a yog, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.

Entertainment: Farscape S1 E21 "Bone to be wild". The bone eater one. And who'd have thunk that a plant could be that sexy?

Possible "Seven ages of starlight" on BBC4 if it's inneresting enough, like.

Depends on your definition of "inneresting", really. .

Alias S1 E4 "Dead Drop": looks like someone's fecking with Sloane's mind.

Walk briskly walked, green ring closed

And before that I started experimenting with writing OpenGL shaders for use in SpriteKit. All I've got so far is a green line that slowly travels to the top of a white rectangle then starts again at the bottom, but these things always take a while, and once you've got something basic actually happening on the screen, you're a good way to wherever you ultimately want to go
