Warmest day of the year so far with a very pleasant 27.5C. Pretty warm for April but it makes up for all the cold weather we had in March.

Well, that didn't take too long. We've complete the requirements for all phase 1 features so now I can get back to building the thing again. The remaining requirements will be written once phase 1 is complete.

Went down the town yesterday evening for a fabulous pizza. Now why am I up at 2am? Could there be any correlation?

Congratulations. I know, from personal experience, just how hard this can be.

Temperature reached 24C here yesterday. Much warmer and we'll all be whining, "It's too hot.". The evening was balmy with the scents of spring blossoms and fresh cut lawns. Here's a snap of the town centre.
