(no subject)

This weekend I have:

• Done some necessary shopping
• Fixed the plug on my good earphones (though this took me several hours and involved much cursing at my soldering equipment)
• Nagged tea_cantata into giving me a long overdue haircut
• Been to a 50th birthday party for lizzip's father, one of the local Lib Dems
• Washed the car and touched-up some chips in the paintwork (also noted a bit of rust on a door-sill that will need to be dealt with)
• Delivered a round of papers and letters for the Lib Dems
• Contributed far too little toward a paper on standard C++ multithreading semantics (see previous paper and new paper when it's published in a week or so)
