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.

Poor wife labouring on & on, Laura arrived to help with the
children, Ann & Nina arrived to help with the baby. Lots of stirling
work from J. Cheryl & Laura took the children away; yet more final
stage pushing - for an hour or more.
-
Eventually decided hospital would be better; ambulance at speed
to Bury St Edmonds, plenty of contractions in the ambulance: and a ton
of electronic paperwork: filling out various details. J. gave birth
shortly after arriving to a beautiful baby girl: Elizabeth Julia Hope
Meeks; 8lb4oz.
-
Spent a long while waiting before the baby was old enough to
get it's FooBaa score - midwife eventually arrived to do that. Passed
the time by reading the frankly hideous woman's magazines in the
hospital: simply unbelievable - a cross between voyeurism and soft
porn apparently.
-
Father came to pick us up, Mum & Dad having arrived and
collected the children. Home, just as Thomas arrived; Robert came
later, and Bruce & Anne - all to see E.
-
Spent the afternoon playing in the sun with the babes,
talking to the family, J. slept - exhausted. Stayed up rather late
to avoid waking J. brothers both practicing their dancing &
showing pictures of the latest & greatest ladies.
