Yup, a quaternion was wrong: Wandering is normally in the x-y plane (2D). The up/down factor of the hills added the z- coordinate (3D) but we went wrong with the 180° rotation (4D) of the quaternion.

But the next day we went back and found the cave entrance within 15 minutes, and descended into the entrance pit of the cave.

Reminder: Show is tonight!

Apologies: As I forgot that the 1st of March was a Thursday I am going to have this month show next week instead of tonight.

Ahh sadly, Sector Commander Vice-Admiral She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed Mrs Murphy, tends to throw a strop if I spend too much time in front of the PC in the evenings, and I don't enjoy being Court Martialled.

But I discovered the other day that clicking on the banner leads to a back catalogue of shows. Very nice, and that's my early morning listening whilst coding/playing sorted for the time being...a good way to start the day.

Sorry you can't make the live show but I am glad you are enjoying the shows via the playlists page It always nice to know.

Smivs arrives 1/2 hour early to get a good seat

I've been using that page too! Very useful, and a way to get the experience even though I usually can't make it for the live show. I occasionally wonder if it might be possible to make a YouTube playlist, so that I don't have to open each link individually, but to be honest, the current format works well enough!

I have just announced to Mrs_SandJ that we will be "Listening to someone else's choice of music this evening, so if you wanted to listen to anything on the radio: tough."

She said: "Someone else's choice of music? Isn't that what every radio station does?"



I should've married a thicky.

Like she did.

Yeah... but Radio Sombrero does it best!

I have started doing that. (Done with Halloween special only so far and that is currently private). Now that I know someone else would be interested I will do the rest. The only issue with this is that I can't do it for shows number 6 and one of the tracks from Show 1 as they are non-Youtube shows/tracks.

ObNothing: this morning I caught myself wandering around the house going, "scoop scoop scoop scoop".

Mrs Talisker was entirely nonplussed, and I don't think my explanation helped very much.

Do you also find youself walking round opening and closing your first two fingers when looking for the scissors? Or pause half-way up the stairs and realise you can't remember what you were going for - nor whether you were going up or coming down?

Either way, I suggest you don't install hOopy Casino.

For 11 days now I have had a tape running in my head going "Dumdum dumdum dumdum dumdum dumdum dumdum dumdum dumdum".
