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 lateish, off to NCC - even more vague and
random sermon - tedious too, need to start looking for
somewhere with decent teaching nearby.
- Home, cheese on toast, set about the machine -
a Zanussi Z929T. An amazing device - totally devoid of any
electronic mess, a mechanical state-machine. Consulted
the internet without much joy. Consulted both sets of
parents.
- Detached the pressure sensor tube - normally
gets bunged up, cleaned it out - though it was in fact
clear. Removed lots of crud from the water filter.
- Apparently more joy - put washing on;
discovered some time later that the programme stuck
while heating. Consulted the block diagram at some length,
the thing is so simple - nothing can possibly go wrong.
Tried a cold wash to avoid thermostat - no joy; hmm.
- Quit - spag. bolg. and 2 Gordon sermon's for
good measure. Discovered the reason the Ox and the Ass
are put in the 'nativity scene' [ apparently innovated
by St. Francis of Assisi ] is not that he liked animals
generally, but from
Isaiah 1:3 - the animals are bright enough not to
bite their master, but are we ?
- Bed late, last day of holidays, suprisingly
sad to be quitting full time Wife admiration / tending
for work.

It's also important to realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences
or fun.
