Back again after another weekend in the Frozen North. Lots of stuff, so not much time to write about any of it (that'll come later, no doubt).

In the meantime, links to a couple of useful search engines to go with Alltheweb mentioned below: Intelliseek Web Search and IXQuick.

The train last night was pretty 'orrid: no bar, no water, no heating, a half hour delay before leaving, and then woken up at six thirty to find that we weren't almost in London, but running nearly an hour late ... On the bright side, the lack of a bar meant I didn't have a whole bunch of cigarettes, nor sit up chatting to weird people well into the small hours, like I did on Friday night.
