I've been pretty bad with my updates recently - two days off a month between updates is not really a weblog. Lot's of things have happened:

Thea and Bruce came to visit at the beginning of the month and Elisse and I went with them on a trip to Madrid, by car, going through a lot of north-western and central Spain on the way. We got to see a lot of the country side in Catalunya, the Basque Country and Castilla & Leon. We also spent some time with Robert and Carla while we were in Madrid. Now I can say I like Barcelona better.

Still being kept busy with my three days a week for Titan, everything from XSL transforms, FileMaker developement to a healthy slab of Perl programming keeps me out of trouble.

Elisse and I are trying to get into a Spanish course as well while we're here, so there's been pre-pre-pre inscriptions and all sorts to deal with.

Having said that - the pace of life in Barcelona is completely different from London and being able to afford to go out a bit more makes a big difference as well. There's been all sorts of things on here, and a new fiesta every week - well it seems that way. So there's a long winded excuse as to why I've been neglecting occasionally human.
