Back from Devon

Dit-de-deee-dit-de-deee-dit... breaking news, coming in on the wires:

[bong!]

Jonathan was in Devon last week, running a couple of SciCast workshops. He had an unreasonably good time.

[bong!]

It is, however, a long way from Glasgow to Devon.

[bong!]

For reasons that aren't remotely clear, it's even further back from Cardiff to Glasgow.

[bong!]

The delightful Flossie toddled on down, whisking Jonathan to the Eden Project on Wednesday. That was fun.

[bong!]

Jonathan has a new phone! It's a Nokia N95 gadgetphone, of which there'll be a full review in due course, but in summary: man, the iPhone is going to rock.

[bong!]

Jonathan's off to Lisbon on Wednesday, for the Ecsite conference of European science centres. This is odd, since he's (a.) speaking, and (b.) not a science centre.

[bong!]

...and finally: Flossie revealed a previously-unknown talent for identifying six species of barnacle. I'm so in love.

[bong!]

You know, if there was a way of making this post skittle across the screen as a ticker-tape, I should probably have done that. Does <MARQUEE> still work? [shudder]
