It's got to the point in implementing my #Readerware replacement that I need to think about data entry and lookup. And look what I just dug out of my bits box ...

I, of course, would never fall for this.

Today's #unemployment adventure: went to the exhibition of #Churchill's #paintings at the #WallaceCollection in #London. It's good, you should go.
Had a quick mosey around the arms and armour galleries too, and was tickled pink by this early example of the technological convergence that we were told was a whole new paradigm in the 1990s.

I have decided that when I stop being an idle layabout I am going to get a job as a #PCB #autorouter.

I did not expect to have to use this reference book today - or indeed ever - in my job as a computer wrangler.

Hurrah for #Victorinox! Almost 30 years ago I got - as a gift - one of their knives, a gentleman's multi-tool. It had all the tools a gentleman needs: a cigar cutter, a bottle opener, a cork screw, and a knife. Plus some others. But after all that time it was getting a bit poorly. Everything was blunt, the joints were stiff and out of alignment. So I posted it to them, and a month later it came back as good as new.

In use, right now. Yes, I mostly use it to digitise old cassette tapes, but it does have batteries and a headphone socket, and I used it this very morning to listen to a demo tape from the early 90s while making my tea. Hi @axemonkey!

Outgoing as an unofficlal swap with a @postcrossing chum today. #AlecBedser had "mad skills yo", and took an absolutely ridiculous 96 5-fers in 485 first class matches.

I'm so glad that #ChinaPost so thoughtfully did a careful safety inspection on this #postcard that I got from a random stranger via @postcrossing. I can now rest assured that I won't get a paper cut from it, or have the purity of my #MaoTseTungThought corrupted.

@futurebird here's what the #OED says. The best citation comes from https://metseditions.org/editions/Kdk5mzWSl54vimQ3IG67mc85Epdb5yb

Received today from a random @postcrossing stranger. It's got to be an intentional nod to #CasparDavidFriedrich's Wanderer Above a Sea of Fog, right?

I got a #SunMicrosystems type 6 #keyboard a few days ago. When it arrived it was in good shape but somehow while sitting in my pile of keyboards one of the hinged feet has just disappeared and I can't find it. Alas! Alack! Woe is me!
Don't suppose anyone has one that they can spare from a broken device do they? Or know where I can buy a replacement?

Today in #postcrossing ... a random stranger said that she liked pictures of #mushrooms.

Received today on a #postcard from #Bulgaria via @postcrossing. The "stamp" is just a slip of paper with the value written on it by hand, which is then stapled to the card. Does anyone know what the language is on the bottom line? #Romanian?

Today's #tea is in this mug. It's a very good film, which I watched in a barn. 2015 was a good year for films about #sheep. As well as this documentary there was also the excellent Icelandic drama "#Rams". You should watch them both.

Outgoing today on @postcrossing ... she said she's into art and the paranormal. So: "Wayland's Smithy", by Anna Dillon. Supposedly, if you leave your horse and a coin outside the smithy overnight, the god will shoe it for you. A cunning ruse, making up a story like that when no-one has horses anymore to test it. Perhaps I should see if the god has kept up with the times and will change the tyres on a bicycle for me.

My latest @postcrossing correspondent said that amongst other things she's into #owls, #ScienceFiction, and #Cryptids. I think that every single one of these birds is a #SuperbOwl.

From the Architects' Journal. If that's one of those buildings that are "so hard to reuse" then I'll posit that it's because they're fucking hideous and no-one wants to reuse them.
OK OK, I know what the real reason is - it's because the buildings aren't very good and need lots of work to make them fit for modern purpose. And renovations attract 20% #tax, unlike new builds.
