Watching Voyager again

I was really pleased to see all the episodes of Star Trek Voyager come to CBS action. Watching them again from the beginning is just great, and as they’re on daily I can watch them in pretty quick sequence, although they do build up if I don’t watch them soon enough.

Crak! Meeting Tuup from TGU

When I was at Beyond the border I had the good fortune to meet up with Tuup from Transglobal Underground. What a lovely man. Happy to have a chat and entirely approachable.

Sadly I didn’t get to see their set at BTB, but hopefully I’ll get to see them soon, either this month or later in the year.

Anyway, it wasn’t as nice as before, which was a shame, but the event itself was good, and that’s more or less the main thing I guess.

Waveshapper progress

Making some progress on the Arduino waveshapper shield kit. I’m pleased with the quality of my soldering though. It’ll take a while to finish off, but it’ll be wo
