Moving

I moved into my girlfriend's flat at the weekend, from the shared house where I've been living for the last few years. In truth I've already been living here for a year or so, it's just that all my possessions were the other side of London. So it's a huge relief to finally have all my stuff. The first thing I did was to shelve my books, and I got a good deal of geeky pleasure from deciding how to organise them. I was so excited about it that I photographed the result.

There was one problem - there's no phone socket anywhere near my desk, and no extension cord long enough to reach the nearest one. But fortunately the phone line actually enters the flat right here, so I just wired the modem directly into the junction box. I expect that's hopelessly illegal, but it seems to be working fine.

From the repetitive-sounding module news department, I've released yet another new version of PadWalker (0.08) which fixes even more bugs and also adds a secret hook into the internals for Richard Clamp to use in his nefarious activities. Peter Scott has submitted his debugger patch which relies on this new version.
