desperanceSo I was taking photos of the boys being helpful in the book-packing department, and the camera decided to stop being helpful, on the grounds that its card was All Full Now. And then I remembered why I didn't like downloading photos from my camera any more, because I didn't get on with the picture-management software that Ubuntu supplies; but I went with it anyway, faute de mieux, and actually I have no idea why I took agin it because it's pretty damn smart actually, and its only problem is that the camera has reset its own date and I don't know how to adjust it to make it, y'know, right.
Anyway. I have downloaded about 800 photos, from Portland and San Francisco and Paris and Staffordshire and such. Anyone would think I was a traveller or something, and not the stay-at-homebody that actually I am.
Here is a pretty from a Japanese garden, possibly in Portland, Oregon:
And here is Mac being helpful:
And here is Barry, also being helpful:
I have packed all my far-eastern cookery books! I have three boxes of Asian, two of Indian and one of Chinese. Yes, I too am surprised by the proportions, but there's a lot of countries in Asia, and when one has books of Balinese cookery and so forth, they soon add up. In piles of unusual shape, which adds an interest to the packing.
