Contact from the North
¦ dialling in from Sky Bunker ¦
Tuesday 27th - PM: I've been in here all day. Bright, sensual yellow sunshine outside, filtering through a thick creamy mist that is hanging over the city and obscuring the broad ridge of high hills in the distance. Had a lovely phone call from Mike, and then St John, both from Newcastle; they've just returned from Hanover, a technology-fair there, showcasing the invention they've been working on for over a year now. Kidsafe. A physical keylock for your computer. They had unprecedented praise and interest from all the resellers there. I'm really pleased for both of them, because I know the risks and sacrifices they've made to bring the prototype to market...I've sat through a lot of it in Kitschen cafe, during the 6 months of 2006 I spent in Newcastle.
It's just gone 6pm, the sunlight is fading, temperature is dropping. Jo will be home soon. I'll cook dinner, freshen up then return to the Sky Bunker for more uninterrupted creativity.
