y’know about this wee app, don’t you? i mean- this is really sweet; well iTunes will already let you share music within a network (intended for, say: pc upstrairs with all my jazz on it… i’m in the kitchen with laptop - i can stream that music legally through). ’stream’ is cool enough, but OurTunes lets you grab the files, in handfulls - from any computer on your network.
as long as they are running iTunes, with the ’sharing’ preferance on - you’re in. right now i’m downloading all the blur i’ll need for tonight from flatmate ‘irish’-es computer, what a bad idea it was to leave my blur up north, anyway - saved. OurTunes, so good.
After breakfast I did a little exploring in the castle. I went out on the stairs, and found a room looking towards the South.
The view was magnificent, and from where I stood there was every opportunity of seeing it. The castle is on the very edge of a terrific precipice. A stone falling from the window would fall a thousand feet without touching anything! As far as the eye can reach is a sea of green tree tops, with occasionally a deep rift where there is a chasm. Here and there are silver threads where the rivers wind in deep gorges through the forests.
But I am not in heart to describe beauty, for when I had seen the view I explored further. Doors, doors, doors everywere, and all locked and bolted. In no place save from the windows in the castle walls is there an available exit. The castle is a veritable prison, and I am a prisoner!

its a great novel, and can be found - unabridged - online: here where you can also find a tonne of literature from a myriad of authors. i found a great book shop yesterday; ‘Voltaire & Rousseau’ can be found off Gibson Street, (Glasgow - map) look for the four hanging pairs of converse trainers… and the students. i found a beautifully bound 1906 collection of Wordsworths’ works: £1.25, spare change left for a midnight baked potato and tuna.
hey, i’m in Glasgow now.
noisey it is too; midnight - saturday. i’m pretty burned out from a day of lingering and general non-productivity. i still don’t have a job, nearly 3 weeks in. any ideas?
more a test post than anything - old database is now re-instated!
