A Grand Tour

Commander’s Log: 3303-02-06, Mars High, Sol.

In my last entry, I was heading out to the Elephant’s Trunk nebula. I arrived in good time, and instead of coming straight back as was my original plan, I stayed to see a few sights, and the decided to go on to see more. It turned into a tour of some local nebulae between the bubble and the rift, with more than a few photos taken and the odd strange sight. (more…)

Valentine shennanigans

There is so much I wanted to do today by the time Louise got home from work, but most of them required a lot of preparation and in some cases shopping. Unfortunately, I was unwell over the weekend†, and while I managed (mostly) to do what I needed to, any extras were pushed to the side. (more…)

Breakfast of champions

So breakfast today and was a toasted muffin (English, or as I prefer Socialist, un-American) cut in half, one half buttered with a rasher of grilled bacon, and the other with some softened Bavarian smoked cheese, then topped with an egg poached with Encona hot chilli sauce, then mayonnaise and a liberal dose of fresh ground black pepper.

Served with a big mug of Kenyan coffee from the Aeropress, and similar of Kenyan tea for the Loufing.

There would be pictures, but for some reason, it disappeared rather quickly.
