Several random thoughts:

1) Arthur is a year older already.

2) Arthur has agreed to be my stock photo model. Any monies accrued will be split 50/50 and put into his savings account. This may be too weak an incentive - I think he will want "goods" up front.

3) Why does Thunderbird occasionally choose to loose all my email account settings?

4) Having just been to a club committee meeting I was again asked the embarrassing question of when can people expect to see the next newsletter - it having been about a year since I last did one (I'm blaming blip for this).

5) Arthur has started a booklet entitled "Stuff to do if you live in a junk pile". I'm not sure how to take this. His first instructional thing to do is to make a rocket out of some match heads, some silver foil and a paper clip (my fault - I showed him).

6) Random now seems to be a term used by anyone under 16 to denote something that I don't quite understand.
