Day 854

Rained almost all day. Played a lot of Johnny Vegas' Draw Poker, excellent shareware game. Transferred data from the Psion via Windows Terminal, 9600 baud, no trouble.

In many ways the ABC caper was a watershed, especially with it ending so exactly 3 years after the finals. To be frank, at the moment I can't see what's going to change and make things different.
Then again, without wanting to tempt Fate, none of the disasters I've had have been entirely without compensation, and looking back a lot of them seem to've been pretty instrumental in bringing about good times.
