It’s a Bank Holiday weekend, no work for us tomorrow, but this Sunday evening still has that \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcback to school’ feel about it.<\/p>\n
Fair enough.<\/p>\n
I’m probably going to take Vin schooling somewhere tomorrow.<\/p>\n
If it stops raining long enough!<\/p>\n
Soph’s sitting over there writing something intellectual about Information.<\/p>\n
I’ve been cutting experimental audio tracks and running them through Castblaster in an effort to try and recreate yesterday’s loop\/echo.<\/p>\n
And failing – in that experiment – to recreate yesterday’s ghostliness.<\/p>\n
[shrugs]<\/p>\n
I don’t know. We’ll have to see how next week’s recording comes out.<\/p>\n
Extremely disheartened at such failure, I’ve taken to mundane technical activities.<\/p>\n
I’ve backed up my old laptop, my new laptop and also backed up the half-terabyte external disc and all pen drives to another half-terabyte external disk.<\/p>\n
Yeah, nerdy.<\/p>\n
But if I was really nerdy I’d construct a RAID array with failover and…<\/p>\n
Sorry.<\/p>\n
Slipped in to work mode for a moment there.
\nAnyway.<\/p>\n
Recognising that I need something else to do I’m now writing emails to people I used to be in close touch with.<\/p>\n
Shane and Pete in Brixton.<\/p>\n
Dr Gorgeous in the North West – just sent her a rambling yet hopefully amusing ‘how are you, what’s new?’ email.<\/p>\n
Ian (also up there), I’ve sent him something far more down to earth and pithier.<\/p>\n
Other, similar, emails in the pipeline.<\/p>\n
Which is stupid really.<\/p>\n
Why would you put emails in a pipeline?<\/p>\n
OMG!<\/p>\n
I’ve just seen our new neighbour walking past the lounge window.<\/p>\n
Bleached blonde hair, skirt up to her armpits and breasts hanging out of the flimsiest top imaginable.<\/p>\n
With two of her friends.<\/p>\n
Attired in identical fashion.<\/p>\n
Followed to the car by a guy – in jeans and a pink t-shirt.<\/p>\n
We’re living next door to a sitcom.<\/p>\n
Or perhaps they’re the straight act and we’re the sitcom?<\/p>\n
Actually… I think that’s the scariest thought.<\/p>\n
Or perhaps we’re in a social experiment.<\/p>\n
Ooooh, talking of which.<\/p>\n
Big Brother is back in a couple of weeks.<\/p>\n
More people watching.<\/p>\n
Excellent (Smithers)!<\/p>\n
