HTB!* We’ve gone and made a silly video podcast that almost entirely fails to detail any of our adventures here in the UK! And posted it to YouTube! So you can watch! And listen!
Phew – I feel so much better now…
Ok, it’s short, silly, and largely pointless, but it’s us without all that annoying cost of flying over here to visit us. (You are, however, more than welcome to engage in the latter behavior as well.) I’ve never done this web video/YouTube thing before, and the amount of compression artifacts is kind of annoying.
We might try to do this every week or two if people care. Or we might not. It all depends :-).
We’re again super grateful to Jess, KK, and KK’s family for their help in getting us to the airport and across the pond. We had a very nice week in Preston (I know I needed the rest), and now we’re in Colchester looking for a place to live and a school for Sub-Evil Boy. We still don’t have stable internet, as the house we’re staying in at the moment doesn’t have any connection. I got a key to my office today, however, which is blessed with much happy internet, so we may spend part of the weekend in here cleaning out accumulated e-mail cruft, catching up with blogs, and the like.
Best to all!

How fun! I’m glad things are moving right along. Personally, I can’t wait for you to get settled. I’ve been really working on our paper, and am almost ready to pass it off to you for a read. (Don’t bother checking the writeboard yet – I’ve been working in evil word – and will post the new version soon. But if I keep having days like today where I spend most of my time emailing bike friends and looking at Alaska photos, I’m not going to get it to you as soon as I’d like.)
That sounds great! There have been a few times when I felt like I should sit down and do some research, but with all the time spent looking for an apartment, etc., I’ve never actually done anything about it. Let me know when you’ve got the newest version posted and I’ll try to hop on that!
Did you get your copy of the Alaska book? Did it turn out well?
We put down a deposit on a nice apartment today, so hopefully we’ll be able to move in to our “real” home in a week or two.
Mmmm… savoury biscuits… and computers selling computers! :)
Good to hear the trip went well.
I like the video podcast!
I’m glad you guys liked it. I’ll try to talk them into making another one soon :-).
