L’amazing - there must be 3-400 types of rose here. I’m a big fan of them, but only if they have an aroma - beautiful flowers with no scent are only half a rose. The Tate has a small garden of fabulous roses on Millbank. #rose #Lyon

So this is what happens when you try and cheat by loading incompatible libraries, because tethering is disabled and the wee-fee is patchy, and you can’t download the lib you need. Checkmate, cretin. #akka #jvm

Boat life is very dull, but enforced relaxation is quite pleasant, especially when the bar is open, the food is endless and excellent, and everything is cleaned three times a day. Not quite David Foster Wallace’s “A supposedly fun thing that I’ll never do again” but not far off. For those wanting to read the brilliant DFW piece from 1996, here you go: http://harpers.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/HarpersMagazine-1996-01-0007859.pdf #davidfosterwallace #cruise

The old route into the pope’s palace, not to be confused with The Pope’s Palace which is elsewhere but smaller, which caused consternation amongst these most humble #catlick clergy.
