Discovering that 11pm whisky plus microwave sticky toffee pudding is a really, really bad combination.

custard would put it right

Actually, in the interest of SCIENCE, I've added more whisky and the second microwave sticky toffee pudding to the experiment.

I'm an idiot.

Yep.

In the interests of science, I had one too many glasses of grog last night, and had to keep up with a bunch of buggers on bikes today. I said nowt about my lingering hangover, lest I was accused of wimpry. In the end, the partial hangover cleared after an hour or so.

Thing is; how do I know when it's 'set'?

Ask Kathy Pike, she is a marmalade setting expert.

(or look in /etc/jam for a settings file)

Thanks. Found it in /etc/default/marmalade.

Surely there's a Makefile to do the work for you?

Leaky abstraction: it just says "15-25 minutes, or when setting point is reached". Up to this point, I was fine.

Right now - killing time whilst the latest version of OpenMS (released yesterday) is compiling at the lab via VPN.

And trying to see how many groups I can add my latest batch of flickry goodness to.

You put a bit on a cold plate and see if it stops being runny when it's cooled down. I think I let yesterday's marmalade for a bit too long and it's too sticky. Tastes wonderful though.

It is done.

I don't know whether it's set. Will have to go back in the pan if not, but it'd been bubbling for a good 25 minutes.

My lungs are reasonably crud-free, my legs have mostly returned to their usual colour and it's 7C outside. You can probably work out the rest...
