I've been ...

To London twice last week (Tuesday for a seminar, and Wednesday for a Board meeting).

Up to my parents for the Bank Holiday weekend, where we ate barbecued trout, drank wheat beer from "Bottoms Up" at 2/3 off, saw relatives (including my second-youngest cousin, at seven months old), and shot clay pigeons (me three, Creatrix four).

Reading "Complete Short Fiction" by Oscar Wilde, "Collapse: How Choose to Fail or Survive" by Jared Diamond, and "The Lake of Darkness" and "The Veiled One" by Ruth Rendell.

Planned my trip up to Trent Bridge next Saturday, to watch the third Test against Sri Lanka.

Buying too many things on eBay (DVD, CDs, waistcoats, a Tolkien first edition :-))

Soothing Creatrix, after she tripped over the tablecloth she was carrying while on a gravel path.

EDIT: Trent Bridge is on Friday, not Saturday!

Advice please

I'm looking for a new palmtop / PDA. The main criterion is that it needs to be compatible with my Psion 5mx, in that everything I've got on the Psion will need to be transferred onto the new one, as easily as possible.

Apart from that, compatibility with my work calendar (on Outlook 97) and my home one (Mozilla) would be very handy. Email (and even web browsing) on the go would be nice, but not essential. I've already got a phone, so I don't need a new one; but if the best PDA for me includes a phone, then that's OK.

Any ideas?

Sore throats and lily beetles

- any ideas on how to get rid of 'em?
