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 rather early; dealt with H. in the lounge to let J. sleep.
- Nice cooked breakfast, retired to read the telegraph. Amazed that
the French have a problem with Muslims girls wearing head-scarves to school;
the comment The French have made a God of secularism seems remarkably
apt to me. In the UK hopefully we try and respect other faith's reasonable
wishes [ NB. Muti adherents wishing to mangle children, or people wanting to
burn windows with their husbands can look elsewhere of course ]. eg. the law
makes an allowance for Sikh's not to wear motorcycle helmets due to their
turbans cf.
here. Perhaps I'm mising some historical key to this.
- Down to the beach for a wander; very nice along crag path in
Aldeburgh - sunny, had an ice-cream on the way and admired the various
crumbling and newer buildings right on the front.
- Back home - jacked the car up and located the new exhaust replacement
as the cause of the strange banging in the car - a beautiful bodge-job done on it.
Bent up a new threaded loop, cut it to a sensible size, and replaced it.
- Lunch; coffee, H. being more communicative / less sad. Examined
Bruce's home-made injection-moulding machine, and his new pressure forming
setup, and the steady supply of tiny pistols: ~2"x2", boxes, etc. he is
churning out.
- Off home via MotherCare to pick up some more clothes
and a new mattress. Home, exhausted, bed early.

In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my

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.
