Little Staughton

The weather looked good today, so I went up North to Little Staughton.

On the bike; first I did a ring of 29 caches, which turned into 32 with a few extras along the way. Annoyingly, I failed to notice one cache; I must have just sailed past it. Then back to the car for lunch, and then another 16, cruising around on the bike. I didn't encounted any ploughed fields, and I didn't fall off the bike, but I did meet yet another aggressive dog whose owner was walking him without using a lead.

The problem when a dog chases me on the bike, is that I don't really want to run over the dog. And, of course, I don't want to be bitten, or pushed over. And the entire burden of looking after myself and the dog, is on me, with the wretched dog owner acting as a passive audience. Apart from ineffective yells of "Here, Rover", which Rover ignores.

While I was out, I think I invented a way to combine three (or more) ADSL lines to connect to one file server, without having to buy extra hardware or subscribe to an extra service. I'll do a bit of experimenting when I have time, but I think it should work.
