    Marmot, the outdoor kit company I like so much, just sent me their Spring catalogue. It’s full of the usual gorgeous pictures of people having fun in the great outdoors, making me ask, “what the hell am I doing slogging it out in the infinite thankless task that is my job, and not out there…

    Sorry about adding login whotsits to the commenting system, but I was getting comment spam coming out of my ears, and this was the best fix available. You only have to sign up once and then you’re done. It’s a good service, honest. I may take it off in a couple of weeks if things…
