Well, the wife and I are now on vacation — off to the hopefully peaceful land in the east. Or at least, it’ll be peaceful once we escape the clutches of BC Ferries.

My sister is housesitting — I reckon it’ll be one of the first times that she’s been responsible (like really responsible) for a dwelling place. That, and she’ll be responsible for the cat.

Hopefully she’ll be able to keep the website up, the plants alive and the cat affectionate — Cya in a week.

I’ve played the silver ball
From Soho down to Brighton

But I ain’t seen nothing like him
In any amusement hall

Sure plays a mean pinball
