Had a bit of a play with Google Earth, decided to see if I could work out the locations of every house I've lived in and school I've attended from a satellite perspective. Did surprisingly well, got a bit easier when I discovered that I could turn the road names on.

There was a "you really should attend, but you don't have to" Fire Safety presentation at Mortimer House yesterday, asked about more discriminating smoke detectors, (reduce false alarms due to cooking). Also asked about slightly quieter alarms for the sake of my Asperger sound-sensitivity. Currently the 100db alarms in the corridors at Mortimer House makes my eyes water with pain and leaves me half blind. I'm a light sleeper anyway, trying to plan ahead for my next residence
