Weekend away

After a brief sojourn in the pub with Brad while I waited for Hammersmith to cease to be one long carpark I drove down to Devon to stay with my parents.

One pleasant weekend of general cud-chewing and strolling around later I headed back up with a passenger seat full of assorted plants to rendezvous with the family at my sister-in-laws impromptu barbecue.

Next door were having a kids party complete with bouncy castle, and after the tots had had enough they invited the adults round to have a go. Cool, although slightly nauseating post-barbecue/stella.

Unfortunately/luckily I don't have any snaps of that - but here's a nice one of the harbour at Brixham. Like a millpond -as they say.

Ok, so after another night of unrelenting coughing and wheezing on the sofa downstairs so as not to disturb the kids, I've packed for the weekend at my folks, jump-started the car and now I've finally stumbled into work.

Blinkbox is pretty much on track - content is starting to flow, the development team are really pulling together, and the production hardware is a week away from commissioning. Yay!

Time is still our enemy, and the disaster recovery strategy is proving a little onorous, but we will prevail.

We cannot fail.
