Ingredients
2 teaspoons wholegrain mustard
2 tablespoons cider / white wine vinegar
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons rapeseed oil (Crisp and dry)
2 teaspoons runny honey
Sea salt / pepper
Instructions
Whisk the mustard and vinegar together
Whisk in the honey
Slowly whisk in the oil.
Season to taste if required.
Notes
Keeps up to a week in the fridge.
You can vary the proportions of the oil, but this gives a nice balance by taking the edge of the slight bitterness of the olive oil which might otherwise make you think you need to add more honey.

Fedora/ Fuduntu

Fuduntu is end of lifed soon, so here’s a list of some the tweaks for reference as a starting point for when I retinstall to Fedora

As Fuduntu was originally targeted at the Asus Eee PC and other netbooks,[5] it contains some tweaks to reduce power consumption. Among them, the /tmp and /var/log directories have been moved to RAM disk, and swappiness has been reduced to 10, to reduce the frequency of disk spin-up. In addition, Fuduntu includes the Jupiter power management applet (also developed by Andrew Wyatt), for easy adjustment of CPU performance settings, screen output and resolution, etc.

The default packages include Nautilus Elementary, Adobe Flash, the Fluendo MP3 Codec, VLCInfinality FreetypeLibreOfficeGmail, and the nano editor.

Weather Station

OK, so my new toy arrived this week, well at least part of it, my new weather station.

I’ve wanted an internet enabled station for over ten years, and I’d never got round to replacing the weather station my ex broke (by dropping a 43 inch CRT TV on it would you believe!)

The site is up and running, I’ll get it posting to wunderground or similar this weekend so I can get a widget on this site, but if you want to check out the weather in Harpurhey, Manchester (see if it is raining on BBC3s People Like Us!) pop over to http://kingsbridgecourt.com or have a look at the current conditions from the weather menu up above.

Sleepers Awake / Watchet Auf / Maurice Mime

I’m posting this because it took me an age to track down.

You may be familiar with Kenny Everett’s character ‘Maurice Mime’ who always had the same music.

It’s actually a piece by Bach called Watchet Auf (Sleepers Awake)

Here’s the version Kenny used
