A now-unseasonal back-blip here, I'm afraid. But pretty impressive knife-work by C and M to create this!

We have been suffering from an absence of internet all week - the upgrade to fibre on Monday didn't work. BT engineers weren't able to help and I was too busy to spend the necessary time on the phone to tech support (it is a basic problem that the people who know what they are doing tend to work office hours). Anyway, yesterday we established that the brand new, unopened cable router was faulty, so I am now using C's macBook as a router while we wait for a new one to be delivered.

So, with the weekend, a trip to Italy next week and some fast internet, I may be able to get back to more serious blipping. Watch this space.
