Ipod update: sorted. Seemed to need some sort of reset, then lots of lovely health-giving electricity. Strange, it almost felt like nursing it back to health. Am I developing an unhealthy Jacko-style relationship here? Also, will I ever be able to do this in london? It all seems a little contrary to that British sense of reserve. Don't we use ipods (or whatever) at least partially, as a way of avoiding contact?
