What's New in Marque My Words
I suppose I must be getting back up to speed; it doesn’t feel like it though, a heavy cold and continued issues with too much work have left me feeling a bit washed up. Clearly the photograph doesn’t identify either of the points made in the first sentence; taken a week ago by Andrea it shows me relaxing outside a beach hut in Oman. The story of last weekend’s jaunt, to celebrate Andrea’s birthday, is related in Q & A 17, Oman Woman, Muscat Big Splat!
We’re off to California in a week’s time so I’ll leave the last couple of blogs, that from the Philippines and Tanzania Tommy Rides Again, on the front page, where they’ll reside with Creating a Climate Graph in Microsoft Excel , which I forecast will take over from The Curious History of the Hakka and the Tulou as the most viewed piece on this website within a few months. I’ll repeat the advice from my last update, if you have not looked at my Tanzanian Photographs yet they’re mind-blowing.
We live in a cold and curious world so try to behave like a cool cat! Seezya!

These instructions are intended to enable school students to create a climate graph, climatograph, or temperature and rainfall chart, using Microsoft Office 2007 Excel. I will not claim it is the slickest method but it is simple and it does work. There are other versions of these instructions out there so you can pick and chose as to which one suits you. At some point I will produce a variant on this as an instruction for producing a hydrograph; many students would be able to work this out for themselves. Please feel free to post comments; I will use them to make improvements.
