On the northern hemisphere

Blogging back to friends in Australia while I'm away. Pure laziness, trying to avoid writing emails. Up above - no offence meant, but that's what you get when you negate down under.

Despite very little free time, Cambridge was on my todo list.There is a good university there and narrowboats. Any one of these is a good reason to visit. That's why I went there Saturday afternoon. To make it into a semi-business trip I contacted Gábor, a physicist. They now have  a summer school…

After 10 days, Thursday morning was the first sunny one. Not  a cloud in sight at least until 10am. Then a fruity design breakfast. After that nothing bloggable happened, as we just worked all day. Except on Friday afternoon I finally met Steve, whose life is getting quite busy, a baby is…

I planned this shopping long time ago. I found shopping clothes in Australia not as straightforward and lot more expensive than in the UK. Here I just walked in and bought what I needed (mainly underpants) in a few minutes time. Well, I bought wool socks. Not that I need them, but I fell in love…

Here is the aforementioned water gun. Its range is 10 meters! However, I was misinformed. This is an anti-cat defense weapon. The squirrels only eat the seeds (and pay the price for the food with entertaining acrobatic tricks), but cats eat the birds themselves. And the super-expensive ultrasound…
