I had a phone call a little while ago asking if he could come over and use my workshop to work on a case for one of his clients. No problem, except that I just needed to spend 20 minutes …
Things are gradually getting off my to-do list. Some things were not expected to be off today are now off it. And other things have been added. On tuesday of last week I got an order for some IC’s. So …
Another order is half way out the door. By half way out the door I mean that there I have just built a couple of trackers for this job. I still need to wire some GPS cables, a radio interface, …
One order is has just been completed, and will be sent this morning. And I have a another couple of orders in production. I am just taking a break from work right now – I find that varying my work …
Despite being a good puzzle, I have never even tried Sudoku. It really does not interest me much. Whilst reading The Register today, I saw an advert for a Sodoku T-Shirt. But what makes this one interesting is that the …
I have a lot of work to do today. Apart from working on my brothers place I did not actually get much done yesterday… Well, not productive work anyway. If the phone does not ring too much I might actually …

Tomorrow I have to help my brother installing a whole lot of lights. Should be a fun distraction – not that I have the time, but I need to do it. My mother also has an important meeting… With her …
Three years ago a friend of mine took me for a flight over sydney in a light plane, in part for thanks for helping him with some wiring in his house. The plane was hired like planes normally are. Today …
One more job is off the to-do list, and more are on it. This is how things go of course. But it does mean that I at least have a lot of work to do. And I am learning things …
