I know I said no more Jessica pictures but when I looked all I had were shots of her and her naming ceremony from this week. This one only just made the time period but is one of my favourites of her thus far. In the afternoon my daughter gets great light in her front room ans Jessica is just learning to move around the room on her feet using the furniture, peoples knees, toys - anything that comes to hand and is so pleased with herself when doing it..

It's been raining here, with only a few hours break at any one time, for more than two months. I wish I could send some of the water to our family in Cape Town - they are supposedly running out of mains water by 21st April after three years of lower than normal rainfall. Mind you it doesn't help that the population has doubled in the last 20 years and the infrastructure has hardly changed. TIA man . .

Feeling a bit better, so this is the best I could do this week on a careful outing.

Cripes Oldboy, if you can't work out how to get into the thing there is not much hope for the rest of us if anything goes wrong. Are you going to take the data drive out and copy it to somewhere else to get your pictures back?

Chris, in my experience chargers look for the worm hole at the back of drawers, and then slip quietly though them; much as socks do in washing machines and pencils do on desks.

That's a very good point H. I was sorting socks the other day, and I held 10 socks in my hand and couldn't make one pair! The others must be in hiding with my charger.
