Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit
Collabora
Productivity a subsidiary of Collabora focusing on LibreOffice support and
services for whom I work.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.
Failing that, there are all manner of interesting things to read on
the LibreOffice Planet news
feed.

- Up late - bank holiday, good Friday. Bacon
and egg butties for breakfast, and got to the sanding.
The floor sander - much like a large, extremely heavy
vacuum cleaner was my field, with J' on the hand sander.
- Hours of sanding in an extremely dusty room,
put the cable-modem cable under the floor. Amusingly
there is one longitudinal floorboard that is easy to
lift, an upon lifting it you discover that the gas pipe,
telephone, central heating, TV ariel, new ring mains etc.
have all been put through the joists at this same board.
This has the end result of there being only a few inches
of the 8 inch joist left to support anything, and any
attempt to fix the squeakiness of this board is likely to
result in being plunged into darkness whilst flooding the
kitchen below.
- Knocked off for lunch, went to Homebase to
stock up on some more tools, varnish, paint, screws and
other good stuff. Back, finished the floor, started
constructing my mamouth desk filling the corner 7'4" x
36", what fun.
- Bed at night in a house full of chaos, dust
and re-located bits of this and that, amazing to see the
ammount of dust on the face masks.

Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences
