How weird's this? Oh, okay, perhaps not very weird. It's this bit of software I have installed to generate thumbnails, you see. It can do all the standard re-sizing stuff, but can also apply effects. God knows why you would want to do this. You would expect a thumbnail just to be a mini version of the image itself. Anyway, A****** must be getting a bit overwhelmed with all these aunties and uncles, so here's a couple more: Uncle Simon and Auntie Beccy, who came round some time this afternoon, bearing many, many gifts.

Started to explain to A****** about all the different wireless data transfer protocols we currently have. His first word will be anachronism or something like that. I'll be holding up a CDR and A****** will say, "Anachronism." Maybe. Erm, so yeah . . . there's that awful picture of M**** and I there. I wanted to delete it. M**** didn't. Whatever. 1 point something megabytes on my hard-drive. Tonight, Beccy and Simon did make us some gorgeous curry and A****** was fairly well behaved throughout most of the evening. We have this baby monitor that Maria (from work) lent me. Extremely useful it is too, but it freaks me out a bit . . . one day I'll hear a deep, gruff voice booming out of the receiver - "FEED ME NOW, YOU INSUFFERABLE FOOLS!" ("No, M**** - I've never used the word 'fool' in his presence. That is odd.")
