Yes it is 4 am ( well nearly) and I am still at work finishing something off for tomorrow. Actually I might have been here less time if the comuter hadn't been crashing every few moments but thems the breaks.

Have been meaning to write about my Malacca Trip with Simon last weekend. Was great (although the bus trip was rather primative but a good experience to have ...once) I took hundreds of photos as usual and they are all posted on my boxershots page at the right but if you can't find them there simply click on the dates for last weekend . Best part of the weekend? Well two things really. 1) it was Merdeka Day , the Malaysian National Day when they celebrate their independence, so there were parades etc but we visited the Independence Memorial and learned about all the conflicts and resolutions over the last 50 years. I remembered that my father had fought in "Malaya" as it was then called during his National service in the late fifties so I called him and we talked about it.. He was actually stationed not far from where we were, and then I found his regiment on one of the boards in the museum. 2) Seafood at Portuguese Square, overlooking the ocean.

This weekend? swimming in the pool and making a website for my friends Jo and Ganesh.
