This week I have been mostly playing with photographs. The extraordinary number of photos I took during my time in Europe only really hit me when I laid the CDs out across the floor and I had to fold up my air-mattress to make room. I;m trying to edit them down to just one CD so that when people want to see some pictures, I can show them the just the good ones and not have to dedicate an entire day to it.

   On Wednesday night Marko and I were back in town. We sat in the Walkabout bar from quite a while, going further in depth about the missing part of our stories. I saw him look over at someone and then away quickly. I waited, looked in the same direction and it took me only a second to recognise a guy we went to school with. He was an all right sort of guy but seeing that Marko didn't want to talk to him I figured I'd spot him around town some other time. I'm still trying to like beer, and stayed on the stuff for the evening, but as yet I still prefer sucking on old lemons.

   I've got a new cellphone (borrowing one from Jed actually) and a new UK sim card to boot. I am still a little bit worried about giving away details on a website, especially as Google has me indexed under some funny categories, so I won't give you my number here. Just email me, or leave a comment if you want it.

   I am going to be leaving Brighton tomorrow to head to Oxford for a few days and then go north. Some old friends to drop in on, some new, and plenty more adventures to come yet.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that yesterday I spent a few hours fixing the pull-cord light switch in the bathroom. I actually got cramp in my left hand from all the little fiddly bits and holding the cord straight with my fingers in funny positions. Not going to be an electrician I think.
