Posting here will be even more sporadic for the next week as I am upping sticks for a week in Estonia, where I shall be visiting both the capital Tallinn (as illustrated on the right) and the remote(ish) Baltic island of Saaremaa (a surprising number of people think that has something to do with the Lord of the Rings rather than a part of Europe, but aanyway…) and celebrating my 26th birthday.

I might (lightly) blog or Twitter while on holiday (Estonia is not exactly a technology backwater) but I read so much damn Internet all day usually, that I think it’s good to be generally offline on my break. Note to friends: Don’t bother ringing me next week as the roaming charges are crippling - email me instead. Be good while I’m away, please don’t burgle my flat (not least as you’ll disturb my flatmate as he gets through the remaining episodes of Heroes) and I’ll bore you all to death on Flickr with the billions of photos I took when I get back. Till then.
