Well, tomorrow I disappear northwards for the rest of the month. I'll be working at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival; here, specifically. I'm really hoping I can set something up with my ancient laptop and a wifi card - anyone know of any insecure wireless networks in Edinburgh's New Town? ;) But it seems fairly unlikely that I'll get decent access even if I can get that sorted, so no gaming, possibly no IMing, but at least the bare minimum service from one of the cybercafes I've previously frequented in the city.

Had a picnic with R today and went rowing on the university lake; it was a lot of fun, and I really wish we did more together. The rowing was especially good, particularly after I coughed and pointed out that, er, really, the pointy end should be going forward. After we switched places, it took me a few minutes, but rowing ability returned and I made decent progress down the lake before we turned to head back.

Saw D2 when I popped out for speedy food shopping last night, bleh. The briefest of glances was exchanged, and then total blankness. I try to convince myself that someday we'll talk just as easily as we used to, but I wonder if that will ever be true.

I'll miss you all a lot; to anyone fancying a trip to the festivals, I'll have a spare room for part of the month, so give me a call and I'll see what I can set up.
