I finally beat our local library e-book service into submission, managed to fool it into giving me an MP3 version I can use on the iPod.
I also found something modelling-wise I've been after for some years, and not too expensive.
Also discovered there may be a way for Best Beloved to use an iPad with his amateur radio stuff, though I don't think we'll be buying one just yet.

I'm thinking we hang on and see what iPad v2 will have.

Given Apple's usual habits, February or March next year. Certainly not before Christmas, given they've got a thing about Macs next week and there probably isn't time to fit another launch in before the end of the year.

We were given a 'half-day' at work to be used when we see fit (long story)

Turns out, the filters fit my camera perfectly. They were cheaper than the ones listed for Olympus, so it was a win in the end.

The Eastmidlands flight was full today, so I had to get one to Birmingham instead. It was the same price, a quieter plane and I got home two hours earlier.

Just got a pay rise!
Fricking woo!
That's a 25% pay increase since February this year!
I've never been in a job before where I have enjoyed it and been rewarded for doing something good!
