    I was in the attic, working on my server, so I left the ladder down. Jack started climbing up the first couple of steps so I followed him as he got higher. He climbed the whole ladder, add got into the attic! Will he be up the climbing wall this winter then?

    Jack’s favourite use of my computers is to visit the teletubbies website. He loves the games. I wonder if they have a first person shooter…

    I just had lunch on the beach. Come to Swansea! By the way, does anyone want to buy a copy of Doom III from me? Being over cautious I ended up with two, as usual.

    I’m sat at the train station. My train is late. Contrary to expectation, this is a rare occurence.
