Mending my pump out toilet
At the moment, we have the ‘pump’out’ toilet on the boat.
This is a small tank that sits under the toilet and sink and fills with detritus.

Kiddie visitors
A couple of weeks ago, when the kids came to visit, one of them leaned off it, or rocked around or something and it came off its housing and water spilled all over the place.
Since then it’s been smelling, and not really usuable, this weekend I’ve got round to fixing it.
I’ve made this little video documenting the story of me mending my toilet.
It took about 3 days in all, letting everything dry out, checking for leaks and making good.
Hurrah for me!

Here’s some news stories from the media who’ve decided to cover it.
Picutures of Montenegro.

This book threatens to lift the lid on American democracy and what it’s become.
It’s released by self publishing house Mill City Press, Minnesota.

VOD: Chinese holographic city, mkII
Holographic images appear in China, for the second time.
Linked to the first story I did, (and related video), a second piece of footage has emerged, this time published by the PRC’s official news channel, CCTV.
Holographic images appear above Dalian, China
As you can see, they’ve put some funky music to the background.
I’m certain the footage is real.
Just like the first video.
Why?
