Ok, so what's been going on. My life is slowly slipping out of control again and I need to make an immediate effort to reverse the trend, and then sustain it. I've already enlisted help, and I have a rudimentary plan; now I just need to stick to it. I didn't too unforgivably badly at it tonight.

I celebrated Valentine's day by going to Camberwell and eating too much refined food. Refined to the extent it was, there didn't need to be very much of it for there to be too much. And watched people doing their thing. The occasion certainly polarises people (into the content and the faintly paranoid, it seemed).

Work on the Valentine proceeds apace. I've established now that it's technically feasible, which comes as a relief; I need to add the play controls, do some debugging and then move on to colours and timing.
