This is what I saw from my front window a few minutes ago:

150 kb picture


I grabbed a snap of them in the last 30 seconds before my camera batteries (which I haven't charged in months) gave up. It came out better than most of my attempts to photograph the deer that periodically visit, but it's not exactly brilliant either. The deer usually try to run away if you take photos of them, so by the time I got the shot they were the other side of the garden and not keeping very still. But hey.

Other than that, I have just realized that the file I need for my work was saved on the network, not on the work laptop which I cunningly brought home. So I shall either brave the snow and the Sunday transport and go into the lab, or see if I can work from a slightly older version.

Can you not connect to your work network from home at all? I'm quite surprised if so.

I couldnt with either of previous workplaces: webmail fine, but they say they forbid connection to network drives. perhaps i just dont know the right kind of geek cunning action.

Both my current and previous workplaces allow SSH access.

Mine you've got to apply in advance for any sort of connection whatsoever. On the rare occasions I've worked from home, I just take a copy of whatever I'm working on home and work on it on my home PC.

Or if there's anyone else at work who goes in on a Sunday, ask them to email it to you.

Oh my god! Deer! Just being able to see that is somehow amazing (however arbitrary that is).

As well you weren't using flash, or you might have had this (http://www.michael-grant.me.uk/images/ljtrivia/deer.jpeg) happen, as happened to me last time I tried to photograph deer...

That is a great picture of those cute animals. Lucky you! You saw them in real nature. I only see deer behind fences as if they were farm animals or something.
Thanks for sharing.
