Sunday, January 11, 2009 at 09:42PM Washed the cars today. I was kind of shamed into it by the awful state of them. Last time I did this one of our neighbours asked me why I was doing this, what with the way that they would become dirty again really quickly.
"Well," I replied, "At least they'll be clean underneath the dirt"

What you do with your Christmas lights before you put them back up in the loft.
Great fun.
Friday, January 9, 2009 at 07:47PM I've felt that something has been wrong all day. Nothing has seemed right, it was as if I didn't fit correctly into the fabric of the universe (and you know how that can be). This evening, I've found out why.
I've got the wrong day socks on. I mentioned some time back how I had acquired some socks labelled with days of the week, and the torment this caused me when I crossed a time zone wearing them.
Well, today I've been wearing socks emblazoned with "Thursday". And nobody has told me. (actually, I'm rather relieved about this bit, the idea of people paying attention to my ankles is actually somewhat scary).
Anyhoo, it turns out that things have got even worse. Number one son came to stay with us over Christmas and he has the same set of socks. And they got mixed up in the wash. I now have two sets of "Friday" and no "Monday" or "Tuesday". And I think I'm down to one solitary "Sunday" sock. Disaster.
I wonder if anyone makes packs of socks with the label "Today" on them?
Life Thursday, January 8, 2009 at 08:02PM I'm really pleased. We've made it through to the next round of the Dare To Dream Different competition. This means that once I've sent off the "Affidavit of Eligibility and Release" (posh eh?) myself and the rest of "Team Effort" should get our Micro Framework hardware and can get on with building our project.
We have to build the hardware, make it work and then make a little video of the device working. Should be great fun, I'll keep you posted as to how we get on.
