Some observations

Leg injury notwithstanding, I've always felt I'll know when I've grown old when I can't run up stairs anymore. Recently the dodgy ankle has prevented this anyway, but improvement is slow as it is sure. I was able to put an equal amount of weight on both feet while running up a short flight today. Young ... until the next sporting accident anyway.

Can there be anything as pure as a child's joy? Last night the youngest Blogg worked himself into a frenzy of joyous anticipation after putting a whoopee cushion under his English teacher's cushion. His joy was a greater joy to watch. His teacher didn't fall for it. :+(

Can there be a bigger bugger in life than when one's email software decides to call it a day? It died last night and I'm stuck for now. The diagnosis continues and at least it appears not to be a hardware problem - despite having dropped the ntoebook computer on the floor from a height of about one metre! Bugger and double bugger.

Sorry to hear about your e-mail problem. Glad you didn't drop the notebook computer on your dodgy foot! Sorry I forgot to ask you how it was doing the other night.

You remember of course that you can use Questmail to check up on your mail in the interim. Not very convenient and buggers up the Japanese, but you can at least make sure you're not missing customers' requests.

The dodgy foot is definitely getting better and you probably didn't ask because under normal circumstances i.e. just walking, it's fine. Going by the typo in the post though, it looks as if I might have dropped it on the foot! ;+)

Questmail: a bit more complicated than that, but I'll tell you more later.
