I spend the day getting 3D diffusion code to work. I'm not sure if it is yet as the other computer is slowly chewing its way through a heat flow model while I do bugger all.

Actually, I'm not. I've been trying to buy a jacket on eBay but keep getting bloody bid-sniped! I'm also surfing for cheap ski deals. I was talking to another snowboarder who's just back from Serbia - it was madly cheap there although a downside is that one of the resort's ski-runs was off-limits. Apparently, it's still littered with cluster bombs droped by the Americans when they took out a radar station on the top of the mountain during the Kosovo War in 1999.

I'm going to Switzerland at the end of March, but the chance remains of something last minute before then. I was thinking of Poland - Zakopane gets mixed reviews some say it's crowded and antiquated, others praise it.

CRAP! It's not working.
