Well, that’s a bonus: washer dryer is at least heating the wash water, even though it’s not drying.

@benjohnbarnes Yeah, I’ve got a proper photo of it, too, I just laughed out loud when I saw that one. Processing others later :)

El Puerto’s website really is godawful. Anyone know whether they’re open tomorrow afternoon?

via Echofon

Right. That’s the Sport Relief photos processed. Now a quick tidy up. Need to be up stupidly early tomorrow, I think :(

In Lightroom Export, what’s the difference between “Resize to Fit Dimensions” and “Resize to Fit Width & Height”?

@hotdogsladies Oh, so _that’s_ why I still had no idea what it meant, even after I googles it.

Hmm. Hoping that the fuse for the washing machine blew because it was elderly, rather than because there’s anything wrong with the machine.

How come, no matter which Half Man Half Biscuit album I’ve been listening to, it’s always _Eno Collaboration_ that gets stuck in my head?

@Chookooloonks Because, sadly, they’re still mostly stayed in by businessmen on expenses who don’t care if they get charged for it.

@KaveyF That’s the song that Loud Upstairs Neighbour tends to play at full volume at 2am. Don’t make me block you.

That being said, here’s a photo of that swan from yesterday, this time with rather more action going on! http://flic.kr/p/7M1VRp

Hmm. Not sure that sitting at a desk processing photos is an ideal break from sitting at a desk processing paperwork.

via Echofon

Wow. Been going through backlog of paperwork for an hour or so. Just got to some Christmas letters I’ve not replied to.

via Echofon

Have Canon UK stopped you registering new products online, or have they just hidden the page really well again?

via Echofon

Cold caller: May I speak to Mr. Gibson? Me: No. Cold caller: Am I speaking to a family member? Me: I think you misunderstood me. *click*

via Echofon

Bugger. Worked out what that fuse blowing meant: the death of the drying bit of my washer/dryer. Arse.

@rabidbee Nasty workaround: create a new version of the image with a white/transparent left-hand margin that makes it look centered :)

via Echofon in reply to rabidbee

@rabidbee @andybeebristol …and to avoid security problems with people trying to embed scripts in a variety of different and nasty ways.

via Echofon

@andybeebristol @rabidbee Flickr itself only allows a few particular HTML tags, to stop the site turning into a mess. http://bit.ly/ccTPuI

@zinziii Holy crap, has Android been out that long? I feel even older now.

via Echofon in reply to ZinziGraham

Matt’s moral double-check: if the website you’re browsing were a magazine, would you be comfortable buying it in a newsagent’s?

via Echofon

In BTP, finishing latte and working on an article.

via Echofon

@mjh53 No, I think for the full effect you need to think about the interaction with the little old lady at the counter :)

via Echofon in reply to mjh53

Feeling restive. Think I may have to go out.

via Echofon

I appear to be taking the morning off. Mostly by accident rather than by design. Hmm.

via Echofon

Fiddling with ExpanDrive. Nice.

via Echofon

Oh, great. @KaveyF mentioned the Large Hadron Collider, so I am forced to go to YouTube and watch the LHC rap again :) http://bit.ly/9fS5jy

via Echofon in reply to Kavey

Hmm. Loud Upstairs Neighbour is playing “I Will Survive”. I wonder if this signals some kind of breakup…

via Echofon

@Squonk Oh, come on, if you’re going to do it, do it properly and install Windows Me.
