I appear to have joined the t610 owners’ club; my old Nokia 3510 was crashing far too often and was beginning to irritate me. So when I was offered a bargain t610 for being a ‘loyal and valued customer‘, I jumped. So far, I’ve discovered that Bluetooth and iSync are just wonderful, the little keys are fiddly, and charging these things for the first time confuses me entirely.

That was a lovely long weekend away from work, then; three days off, and the lovely presence of the girlfriend to boot. We ate tons, drank too, went to the cinema (Love Actually is 50% of a really good movie, and 50% of a terrible one; Aurelia was the bomb, though), played a lot of backgammon (wonderful game), failed to teach her to play Halo (wonderful game too, but requires lots of thumb co-ordination; still, a valiant effort was made), and went for a walk.
And what a lovely walk it was; smallish photos here – if you want it larger, I might oblige later.
Links & notes for this month
- Umm, yeah. I was going to update before Christmas but appear to have failed to. So: happy Christmas, everyone. Hope you enjoy it, and see you in the New Year, if not before. |
- Damnit! Why is it I only find out at the last minute that tomorrow is the last posting day (basically) for Christmas? Now I'm going to bed far later than I planned because of doing Christmas cards. Never mind... goodwill and all that. |
- What with the recent capture of Saddam Hussein and all, it must be time for a new Get Your War On. And there is. And it's wonderful: "with a heavy dose of fear and violence, I think I can get you those planning reports by the end of the day". |

- Some beautiful artwork: Dream Anatomy. I love these early anatomical drawings, where the artist never knew whether to be 100% accurate, or sacrifice some accuracy for artistic beauty. As it is, they're still more anatomy than art, and some prove just how beautiful the human body is under it's skin. |
- Another week, another Omnivore, and this week it's from Taylor, with a belated Thanksgiving piece. |
- Interesting typographic thing: Alphabet26. A remodelled alphabet, with a single case, using a mixture of suitable upper and lowercase characters to avoid confusion. Surprisingly pretty, but I'm not sure I'd get used to it for everyday use... |
- I, too, had a similar experience to this. At least they apologised, but it's a bit weak to not only get spam, but spam apologising for spam you can't read when you don't have a phone capable of displaying photos. |
