It appears that I am in New Jersey for the purpose of assisting somewhat with USA based scraperwiki business.

As I limit my air travel to the bare minimum (for reasons that would be obvious if we were a species that took any notice of threats to its survival), I am staying here for 3 months (till 24 April) using only surface means of transport.

I’d like to meet anyone on my travels in relation to scraping business.

But, more interestingly, I’d also like to meet anyone in relation to CADCAM machine tool work. A lot more of that happens here than at home, I understand. Please get in touch.

Travel plans are NY till 6 Feb. Then I must be in St Louis Missouri on 24 February. No plans have been made to fill the time in between or what exactly happens afterwards.

After a very wet New Year at Bull Pot Farm, there was a few days down in London at the EPS finding various things to do. In between I did a lot of coding on Scraperwiki’s dataproxy, converting it to twister.

This weekend was a final trip to Leck Fell doing the usual stuff before I get trucked off for three months to the US of A.

Saturday was a trip down Death’s Head Hole, which had recently been connected into the lower part of Lost John’s Cave main drain below the lake ducks. Surveying.

One slight error was I had packed one of Becka’s wellies instead of my own, so I had a bit of trouble fitting my right foot into it.
