Hello.

I’m taking a bit of holiday at the moment, which is usually a good time to catch up on hobby projects.

This week, I built a LEGO case for my Raspberry Pi

and then I built another one

(I’m really loving the Raspberry Pi. Cheap, hackable, useful hardware.)

I modified my ‘Look Of Disapproval Glasses’ (http://www.etsy.com/listing/79821028/look-of-disapproval-glasses) to be working 3D glasses.

(Now I can look disapproving of 3D movies at the cinema)

And I renewed the domain name for She Went of Her Own Accord
http://shewentofherownaccord.com/
(A site I built with @knolleary a few years ago. It continues to happily gradually gather ‘Jamaica’ jokes. Do dig around and add your favourite if it’s not already there.)
