We have planted them inside, near a very large window, that gets a lot of sun gets very warm. Hopefully this will mean nice little seedlings in a few weeks, depending on the weather.
We have planeted the mundane, Onion, Parsley, Mint, the adventurous, Garlic, Jalepeno, Sweet Peppers, and the strange, Blueberry, Birds Eye Chillis and Aubergine(?!).
There is also a random bonsai tree, and a bean plant that I planted last year.
We have plans to grow carrots and potatoes too, but they'll be started in a few more weeks.
We now have our fingers crossed for lots of free fruit and veg!

I know its been a while, but all the recordings that were made on the first day of PyCon UK 2007 are available on the PyCon UK Wiki.
Get them while their hot.
The Sunday recordings are knocking around somewhere. When I find them I shall get them done as soon as possible.
Until then enjoy!

There's a bit of an Ubuntu meme, meme 1,meme 2, spreading around the net, making sure that we have all done our "5-A-Day".
Try to triage 5 bugs, help with 5 new users forum posts, shoot down 5 current bugs with your mad programming skills, every day.
I took this as an opportunity to try my hand at triaging bugs. My 5 for today are, 123647, 148832, 149048, 151929 and 155352
I suspect that I won't triage 5 bugs a day, but I'll try!

Useful information that's not very clear or easy to find.
The old iBook G3 Clamshell design, the very first iBook produced, cannot read new 700mb CD-R disks as the drive is too old. Yet it can read the even older 650mb CDRs.
This is very useful if you are trying out Linux isos you have downloaded, but make sure that they are small than 650mb!
The only distribution that I could try was Ubuntu as they were the only distribution to provide professionally pressed CDs.
I hope this is useful to others.

I find stuff on the floor a lot. Mostly its useless rubbish thats catches my eye, but the other evening I picked up a provisional driving license while walking in town. It belonged to a Mr Powell, and my first suspicions were it must be a fake as who would be so careless to loose their real drivers license?
Well the good thing about drivers licenses is that they have your address on so I posted it back.
Yesterday I received a christmas card, which is unusual as I never send out cards so people don't feel inclined to send any to me.
Just a quick note to say thats for returning my drivers license, it shows that there are decent people around who are honest - FAITH RESTORED.
Best wishes for 2008
Now that did fill me with the warm christmas glow that is always talked about in films and TV shows.
Merry Christmas
