Morning all
Misty out, which probably helped keep the temp above freezing (just)
Big drive to a foreign land this evening - off to a presentation by Gordon Buchanan in Yeovil, taking my DoE student with me (the fact that he's now a better photographer than me is irrelevant, he's still my student!). Also have to book flights to go to the memorial service

Oh, I need checking twice in 30 minutes now?

Yes, I am what passes for a human.

Shirts in off the line & roughly iRoned, along with those of the cottons in similar need, all airing upstairs.

Tin shed received some undercoat once I'd managed to get the lid off the tin of paint. Said lid is unlikely to go back on successfully. .

Remaining smalls & cottons in off the line & airing upstairs.

Duvanny Yar: living nematodes out of permafrost.

I see there's now "Vintage" scrambled maps, using old maps from New York and London.

I tried a couple of them, but because they are based on images, the devices I am using keep trying to highlight letters/words rather than allow me to move tiles around.

I haven't tried these maps yet. The chap who runs the site is very responsive to feedback; you should drop them a note to let them know.

or use better devices.
just sayin.

Lunch: Heinz tomato soup and white toast

Nice sunny day out, with the merest wisp of cloud here and there

Yes, while it's very useful to be able to copy OCR text from images, I wish there was a way to turn it off for this kind of thing

They need to add

-webkit-user-select: none

to the CSS for the images

Done for the day, and done for the week!
