Reminded me of a particularly colourful baggage strap – the kind I’d love to have to make my suitcase easy to identify. In retrospect this image can be filed in the “What was I thinking!” folder.

Today’s Gratitude Item: Managing to get an “off-line” version of Visual Studio Express 2010 for using with my students next term. Last year I had students who struggled to download and install the software from the internet (dodgy internet connections + huge files = painful problem). Hopefully we can avoid those issues this time around.
