On my epic quest to go and get a pint at the anchor (some reviews here, also see picture in last post) I went for another paddle near Woodseaves. Paddled all the way there and got there, hurrah people in the garden all enjoying a beer / cider and got to the door just as they had closed
So then had to paddle all the way back and then on to Nordbury Junction which was open but was not that special

Went out again yesterday for a paddle

A close up:

Sadly this was closed when we went but should be open at the weekend :)

I am just experimenting with Drivel, an gnome online/offline blog editor for Linux
If all goes well this should appear online!

edit: this should test the updates….

Just a quicky,  to get identi.ca working with pidgin:

1.  Enter your gmail address in identi.ca

2.  In pidgin add update@identi.ca as a buddy

3.  You will get an authorise request (or 4 ) just authorise the first one and give it a sane name like Identi.ca

4. Try sending it an IM,  this will probably fail with a message :

Identi.ca: [Identi.ca] Unknown user; go to http://identi.ca/settings/im to add your address to your account

5. Look at what username your message went from in my case it was foo@gmail.com/Home

6. Pop back into the Identi.ca web page for IM settings and change your IM name to what ever it sent it as

7. You will get a message from Identi.ca saying basically click on this link to confirm your jabber id.

8. Click on it.

Done
