Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit
Collabora
Productivity a subsidiary of Collabora focusing on LibreOffice support and
services for whom I work.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.
Failing that, there are all manner of interesting things to read on
the LibreOffice Planet news
feed.

Mail chew - with newly migrated mail servers; hmm. Amused
that an unusual job description from LinkedIn generates more
interesting spam:
"Michael, as the Christian & Hacker at Collabora Ltd you know how hard choosing the right global employment and work payment partner can be."
presumably some new AI super-brain made the connection.

1:1's with Miklos, Lily, Chris, content review with
Richard, catch up with Pedro & Eloy.
-
Enjoyed John Stott's The Message of the Sermon
on the Mount in the evening.

Up early; All Saints - played Guitar, H. on Piano;
Rick drumming - good, David S's run a family service.

Back for a Pizza lunch; slugged and read stories
with the babes. Checked tent & packed with N.

catch up with them in the afternoon.

Mail chew, lots of 1:1's, marking content review,
lots more mail chew. Steve over to look at the window
painting horror.

Up early; Guitar with Cedric at Church, Rick spoke
well. Home for pizza lunch - H.N.M. all left to help serve

Back to All Saints to play for the YFC AGM; great to
see what they're doing.
-
Back; relaxed in the sun with J. and babes.
-
Up earlyish; J. out to her arty church activity with
Leanne. Chewed through lots of paper - tried to sort out a box

Lunch with J. & E. rested in the afternoon variously,
learned a new song for tomorrow.

to see Leanne.

in the sun & sea all afternoon.

Dinner, and home via a Hipermarket on the bus.
Read some story, watched a rather silly movie; bed.

Up lateish, breakfast at home - H's birthday,
read stories, lunch. Into town to visit the Ethnographic

terribly impressive.

before discovering the lovely mini beaches off the walkway
around the bay.
