I'm a sailor peg

Well, here we go. I'm now making last-minute preparations for to ship off to Boston for next week's Canonical Company Conference and for the last two days of UDS, where I'll be in meetings about Launchpad.

This will be the third (count them) time that I've flown anywhere, and although I'm no longer in the dark about what it feels like to hurl yourself into the sky in a slim aluminium tube I still haven't got to the point where I consider such behaviour at all natural. Metal, as a rule, does not fly on its own. One can't help feeling that making it do so is staggeringly unwise.

I should be landing in Boston at about 19:40 Eastern time, which is about 23:40 GMT at the moment. Here's not not sleeping much for the next 18 hours...

About

Graham Binns is a writer, photographer, musician and software developer from Lancaster, England, with far too much hair, a penchant for odd t-shirts and a magnificent hat. He has been making things up for as long as he can remember and has been making code work for long enough to make a living from it.

He has written one novel, which is in the process of composting, and is working remembering how to write before embarking on a second. In the meantime, he photographs things, since it's easier not to have to make the world up in his head all of the time.
