May day 2007 in pictures

Yesterday - May Day 2007 - was one of those long days which generated so much to say - techical and otherwise - that I don't know where to start (and so, it seems, I'm making the problem worse by going on about it). Early morning at "404" and "The Manor" getting ready for the day .... a day's consultancy work helping to install Tcl and Expect on a Solaris 10 system in Bournemouth (we don't "just" train - we keep our hand in too!), and an evening where I felt so enclosed from offices and computers that I wanted to get our and walk ... and it's lovely here in Christchurch.

The area is beautiful - rivers running down to the sea, old streets and ruins that have moved from "eyesore" to "historic", and a warm, plamy climate.

From young to old, everyone out enjoying themselves.

Many, many more pictures ... I'm (ah!) not quite sure how best to use them - but it you've a couple of minutes you might like to see some of the best here.

Commentator	says ...
Custard:	If only I'd known. You could have popped in for a pot of tea! Tuckton bridge was on my old stamping ground when I lived there a few years ago. Spent many an evening as a child grubbing around in the exact spot you took the photo. There used to be an old gypsy caravan there that the local scouts restored. Will have to drive by and see if its still there. B (comment added 2007-05-05 20:44:04)
