Back now from 10 days leave which involved three days of camping which was 'fun'. Wet, cold, back breaking and possibly too much family. But there were highlights amongst some of the heritage sites / sights we took in.

And swam in the sea for the first time this year on the way home. Not that the weather warranted it. But it washed away the grim(e) of the vacation.

Then 5 days running the AV element of a conference which turned out to be exhaustingly demanding but a huge privilege with some top speakers and almost a free hand to annotate their talks. The main points I'd been putting up on screen the first day or two were apparently so useful to the large number of non-English speakers that by the end I was doing as near full-text as I could, in the manner of subtitles. Throwing in images as and when appropriate just added to the fun. Demanding but interesting.
