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.

Mini lie-in, the girls seem to be getting better at sleeping
nowadays. 34th birthday today; some lovely hand-made cards from the
family, and a present or two.
-
Set too trying to deduce the cause of the cooker's failure,
unfortunately the installer didn't leave enough cable to remove it
from its position. Disassembled parts of it by leaning and balancing
it (a Belling 644bl), spent a long time hunting ineffectually for
cracked cables causing earth leakage. Eventually isolated the problem
to the top oven.
-
Bruce & Anne over for lunch, with some fine gifts - a
vernier
caliper giving a better than 1/10th mm accuracy, and some
a pair of micrometers. Out into town for a fine meal with the family
at Prezzo - much fun.
-
Back, Bruce helped get the laptop lathe setup nicely, with
the help of some spare bolts machined a beautiful brass reprap
nozzle; now I just need some PTFE and passive components.
-
Raspberry & cream sponge cake, with candles; and
bid 'bye to Bruce & Anne.
-
Back to the cooker while J. put babes to bed; eventually
discovered the top oven heater element concealed under the right
hand side panel, removed it - no oven, but no RCCD trips either.
Movie in the evening.

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