Chillin’ with the cats
This is my idea of relaxed blogging — sitting in the garden on a Sunday afternoon, cool drink in hand, watching the cats chasing flies (OK, I could do without the flies, but they keep Patty and Selma amused — see exhibit A and B below).
The one down-side of the iBook’s white finish is that it does tend to reflect a lot of glare back onto the screen. However, I’ve discovered that with some careful positioning, it is just about possible to work whilst sat in the sun. Of course ideally there would be some contraption to enable me to use the laptop from the comfort of the hammock — the iHomer perhaps?
None of that swanky wi-fi technology for me though — I’ve got a ten metre cat5 cable running out of the window.
Speaking of wi-fi, does anyone know of any pubs or bars with wireless internet access in East Dulwich? My cat5 cable isn’t quite long enough to reach the EDT or Blue Mountain Cafe. This is kind of an up-and-coming area, full of middle-class thirty-somethings, so surely there would be enough demand. It would be so handy for those informal business meetings and geeky piss-ups.
