I don’t suppose anyone out there in blogland knows where to get Elderflower cordial?

Sucking face

So, the recipient of the world’s first face transplant is now well enough to be able to use her new (old?) lips to smoke.

Woohoo!

If you’re putting in a garden and looking for a landscape designer, I’ve got a friend who’s looking for more clients. Let me know and I’ll pass on her details.

Anyone have any good recommendations/disrecommendations for front-loaders? Or a Choice membership? :)

So, our mighty leaders have sold out the environment for a $100 million donation to a climate change fund after the AP6 meeting. That’s like $20 million less than they’ve donated to refurb a coal station in the Eastern states. $100 million is nothing, compared to the cost of the upheaval that awaits us. The news was reporting the ’solution’ as ‘more affordable than Kyoto’. Affordable for whom? Those who attended the conference, I’m guessing.

Meanwhile there was several million dollars spent on security during the meeting.

It makes it easier having to be back at work when they give you a quad processor G5 and a video iPod to play with :)

(The G5’s box looked like it had been sitting on the wharf over the Christmas break. The cardboard was a) waterlogged and b) covered in rusty marks from non-slip steel decking material. Perhaps they just strapped it to the top of the ship or something. Fortunately the machine seems to be working ok).

Oh, and the FireWire 800 cable got some heavy use today. If you’ve got more recent machines, it’s worthwhile getting one to shunt data between them.

Who would have guessed…
