Some of the events of last week:
- Auguste Anberree was born, six weeks early. He is fine, but will be staying in hospital for observation.
- I did much work on the robotics course which starts next week.
- I did some experiments and got some encouraging results.
- I had an eye test and discovered I have mild farsightedness, and moderate astigmatism. I thought I had shortsightedness, as distant objects appear blurry. Turns out that is the astigmatism.
