Mum & I have been stripping wallpaper again today, we were also looking after JP and doing some cooking whilst Dad was decorating at Pip’s.

We’re having a day out tomorrow whilst the dogs get their haircuts, hopefully we’ll be able to find “mega-Netto” to get some more of that Spanish wine, German beer, French camembert and Swedish rollmops!

My aunt and uncle arrived today and it looks like my great aunt and uncle will be here soon too……

I’ve been playing with Fuse SSHFS, which allows a normal user to mount a remote SFTP site as a local folder. I’ve just opened a template on my remote webserver using Gedit on my laptop – clicking save changed the site.

I guess it’s not hugely different from Samba or NFS, but it’s kinda extra cool as the encryption allows you to use it over the WAN not just the LAN, and it’s more “realtime” than SCP or SFTP.

Dad & I have been wallpapering my bedroom today, Dad also painted the ceiling and Mum came over to help glue the carpet after going to the hospital about JP’s ears with Pip. We also finished the wardrobe and put down a new rug in the landing.

Apparently Kev got my package from Citylink, Phil missed the other one.

Just updated to v2.04 of WordPress, had to go through the usual screwing about with styles.css to get it to look how I like it. This time the PHP files merged properly so I only had to reinstall the SidebarWidgets plugin.

Edit: just noticed that Free also have usenet access, including the alt.binaries.* groups!

We all went to Chateauroux yesterday to get the back bit for my wardrobe, although it turns out we had it all along! We had a lovely kebab and did a little shopping, JP behaved very well all day, he looks smashing with his new haircut.

Today Dad and I have fought with the wardrobe and got the back bit on, so it’s all done now except for the three doors, which we’re leaving off whilst the ceiling is painted and the walls papered.
