When I go on holiday I always expect to enjoy uninterupted hours blogging on things for which there is no time when responding to client demand.

Fortunately the appeal of skiing, tramping, eating with friends and other holiday distractions have never faded enough to make the computer screen seem more enticing, so all those plans dissolve. And when I come back there is usually such a backlog of client work that the blog continues to take a back seat.

But I'm now back.
