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, set off for the bus, waited for
ages at the wrong stop getting cold. Trecked up the hill
and finally found the real bus. Amazingly difficult to walk
up a simple incline at altitude with skis (etc.).
- Bought a 2 day ski pass, and an hour of 1to1
tutiton. Set off up the lift - engineering on a rugged
scale. Played on thie children's slope for a while, gradually
getting the grasp of avoiding ones immenant demise. Made a
little progress.
- Bite to eat in a local hut, then met my instructor
Ben - a Swiss skiing fanatic who (helpfully) could ski backwards
down the steep bits with me coming after him - brave man.
Improved to the point of being able to turn around on a slope
a few times without falling over. Good.
- The ski lift down decided to close extremely early
(high wind at the top + snowing ?), thus left with the prospect of skiing
down the mountain. Not so impressed by this. Walked the nastily
steep bits adjacent to rocks / precipices etc, somewhat exhausted.
- Shopped in Montana - and caught the bus back to the
flat. Applied slugging - watched Yes Prime Minister - and
massaged each other. Lovely view from the flat - although apparently
another mountain range lurks being a veil of cloud.
- J' made a lovely dinner again, Bed early - split nail,
painful right thigh, left thumb, right arm etc. hopefully that
means I'm gaining.
