How&#8217;s your Saturday going?<\/p>\n<p>Mine&#8217;s OK.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve recorded two podcasts (one for today, one for the weekend we move house) and performed software and operating system surgery on my old laptop.<\/p>\n<p>And now I&#8217;m feeling a little &#8216;penned in&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d like to go out, but riding is out of the question.

I need to go to the yard to get my cordless drill out of the lorry. It needs recharging and I only found out where the charger is the other day.<\/p>\n<p>But I have done stuff, apart from the podcasting thing. I took my front door key to the new house off the keyring and added it to my keyring.<\/p>\n<p>And&#8230; AND&#8230; and I did that without breaking any limbs, windows or fingernails.
