Out walking
Back to Blankney Walks – and an early morning walk and coffee. I set off before the sunrise.
After the coffee it is back to the car and reading for the viva next week.

Walking today
I went out to Blankney and walked more of the path network there. This was the sunrise.

New tea and coffee station
I was planning to go walking early today and photograph the sunrise but the weather had other ideas – it was raining really hard.
So I built some new shelves in the office and sorted out the tea and coffee…
What a difference a week makes – last week I was neck deep in the dissertation.
I did have this published on the Octagon website:

I took the day off, dusted off the serious hiking boots and went for a long walk. Of course it rained and was very muddy. In the end I made my coffee in the car and watched “A Massive Hunt” but it was great not to have to write.
Also one of my favourite iPhone photo apps got a Christmas theme.

Woodford Bridge Country Club
Cornwall Coast Path
Breakfast – Lower Longbeak
I have to head home tomorrow so rather than an early start on the dissertation I headed out for a walk along the South West Coast Path and an outdoor breakfast.
It was sunny but cold – the car was frozen. It is on mornings like this that the Ford Max button to defrost everything is really useful.

Work from anywhere
I have moved into my new space today – there is still some work to be done to finish it but is is perfectly useable. Michael has done an excellent job.
I now have somewhere to retreat to to complete my dissertation now that the University Library remains closed to me here in Lincoln. (Photos here and here of the views from Lincoln University library.)
For security only the seat, kettle, offices odds and ends and heaters remain in the shed overnight – the rest of the hi-tech stuff is my portable office so that goes.
Future plans for the “shed” include:
• Finish the decorating and hang the curtains.
• At the moment I am using the house Wi-fi. I want to get Octagon Technology to install a secure Wi-fi router/access point and VPN. As part of the build I had the electrician run a network cable at the same time he installed the power.
• We are going to install some off-grid 12v solar power.
