We're test-driving a new office laptop. Very exciting possibilities here, in terms of housekeeping/logistics ie. creating a portable database. But it also means that I can now partake of the time-honoured practice of writing in cafes, or, as David Mamet prefers, Writing In Restaurants. (Do I need a black turtleneck? A working knowledge of existentialism? Best to be sure.)
