readier

John Copper phoned to say that the charts have arrived and, after a struggle, I got an asus eee pc, which is being used for this entry. The asus in an expensive toy, the keyboard is v clunky and hard to use, probably not a good sign when the shop offers to bundle a keyboard, but it is a tiny, full featured pc with usb ports and so on for about the same price as a good pda. Might get one of those waterproof keyboards to go with it. I see that the input voltage is 12v, hmmm. Mona has booked a flight to Islay, Andrew and Jo have arranged travel to arisaig, colleagues are starting to realise this is my last week of work, weather has picked up - starting to feel like its actually going to happen.
