This project needs a better name, but the dragon looks GOOD. I might see if I can tweak the eyes in png2svg, he shouldn't look that scary...

Had a massive scare yesterday. Gigi got into a fight with the neighbor's dog and got some nasty wounds. Was able to stop the bleeding and she's seemingly stable but lost most of her tail feathers. I feel so bad for not keeping a closer eye on her. She's in good spirits today so hopefully that means it wasn't too bad of an injury.

My favourite RISC OS error message (though technically an Econet Fileserver one) is "Who are you?"
You get this when you're logged into a fileserver, but the FS is rebooted. The FS thinks you're logged out, but your local station claimed to be logged in.

Anyway, thanks to the invention of RCBOs, I'm not going to be a footnote in Tim Hunkin's EMF talk on the history of electrocution this weekend.
Is your hedge trimmer truly broken-in without at least one waterproof splice on the power cable?
(I have a rule, maximum one splice: if the cable gets cut again, it gets shortened or replaced)
