The weekend was stellar. I´ll probably drone on about it later. First, though, a couple of interesting news items - at the end of this year Britain will finally finish paying off our war loans from the US, and the High Court has said that the Chagos islanders can go home. Result! (Or, at least, Result! pending the inevitable appeal). Oh, and HMG´s finally calling for the Guantanamo camp to be closed. Not going to happen, but nice to hear it said.

While I´m here, does anyone know how to turn off dead keys (the method of mapping extra characters to a standard keyboard rather than any other use of the phrase) under debian (etch, gnome)? I be grateful. It´s annoying me.

I have to admit I was trying to figure out what the *hell* you were doing driving through Lancashire on a London-Edinburgh road trip, and decided that you didn't really mean "Lancashire" but rather "somewhere up north".

No, we meant Lancashire. And Cumbria.

Muffin is very prehistoric with directions sometimes.
