The BBC Micro emulator lives, sort of. It displays (very badly) in a gtk window, and it can accept keyboard input (very badly). Next to do is to improve the teletext emulation a whole lot.

I tried all day to track down the UTF-8 bug, and found out a lot of things about it, but couldn't put the big picture together. I'll try again tomorrow.

I went to St Mark's at lunchtime again. Today was the feast of the Visitation, when people remember Mary visiting her cousin Elizabeth when both of them were pregnant. The preacher said that he was tempted to use pregnancy as a metaphor in his sermon, but didn't really dare make pronouncements about what pregnancy might be like because he wasn't ever going to be pregant himself.

I hacked on Metacity some, and on the Beeb emulator some, on the way home.

Fin made three bean chili. I made the rice. It was lovely.
