Spent large chunks of today writing code to automate Internet Explorer - things are slowly coming together in a useful way.
Then met with Erin in the Filmhouse (for about 15 minutes) to hear about flat-hunting - there seem to be many crap landlords about.
Then on to the cinema, where I got tickets for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and then waited half an hour for Lilian to turn up (was running very early to ensure I got tickets). It was A Good Kid's Film, and full of about as much absurd prettiness as you'd expect.
Then back to Lilian's where I took photos for the cover of her fanzine.
And then buses back home, followed by a 10 minute walk, wherein I looked up from my Pratchett to see a fox walking down the street, carrying something in its mouth.
And now home, to read LJ, write this, and avoid the cat rubbing her head on the keyboard and deleting things faster than I can type (lost two sentences so far).

I wish they'd support CSS2 in any nontrivial way...

abusecontrol, it's just "web app" development. I thought by "control IE", you meant some horrendously insultingly painful ActiveX Kludgefest which would appear as Gates sticking his middle finger up at those who dare not use IE 5.5 or later....no subject
