So a year or so ago, Packrat made a nifty page to graph Perth's temperature. But since he's moved to Switzerland, and someone at EE broke the machine it was running on, I had missed it.

So I wrote my own. Mmm horrible Perl screen scraping hacks - http://theducks.org/weather.png .. It's not as good, but it'll do. I'll make it join the dots at some point, but GD is a pain in the neck.

if y'all know packrat, i'm assuming you'd know rowcliffe? if so, where the hell is he these days?

and i just saw that you won an ebay for some pb 1400 - erm, sorry, i trashed three of them this year, as in, turned them into artwork, shall we say - i promise i'll send them your way next time.

:((((

Do you know if they were 1400c or 1400cs models? I have three of the 1400cs models.. the 1400c had a MUCH better screen.
