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 at 3am, had to wake the baby since it's too long
since the last feed; J. fed it and changed it; she went back to
bed, washed, dressed, breakfasted. Mother helped wind, and
settle it.
- Drove to Cambridge to pick up Sean & Abbie, took
them and luggage to Stanstead for their emmigration to Stockholm -
very sad to see them go; God willing things will go well for
them there.
- Home at 6ish, bed. Up at 10:30am, Anne had come and
gone; some breakfast, baby washing, changing, feeding action; took
some photographs eg.
Hannah and beautiful wife.
- Mum and Dad went out shopping for us, J. bathed, had
a lovely lunch made by Mum. Spent a while hammer drilling various
walls to erect ladder holders, and shelves for the baby - the
soothing sound of drill on masonry.
- J. slept while Mum and I tried to stop Hannah crying,
it appears she can be distracted from issues such as hunger and
internal plumbing by sufficient gentle rocking, jiggling, prayer
and a following wind. Mum & Dad left to drive home.
- Got flowers from NetProject - very kind of them; Sue
Hummersone came to visit the baby, while I painted the cot base
again.
- Had a relaxing poke at my filed OO.o patches / issues
- Frank cheered my up by reviewing the system-mozilla patch nicely
anyway. Avoided the deluge of stress that reading E-mail is.
- Started idly poking at OO.o for a right click -> save
image feature, and found the select image -> right click ->
convert -> To Polygon in OO.o 1.1 (cf. red-carpet snapshots) -
does a pretty good job, and lets you edit the vectorized result;
- Mel (from Church) popped round with dinner for us,
Shephard pie (eatable with 1 hand) and fruit pie & cream
pudding, yum. Very good to see her, a kind soul.
- Dinner, fed H. bed early 10:30pm.

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