Leaving England
10 things I think I'll miss... in no particular order at all...
- Smoke-free pubs serving Real ale and nuts(!)
- Supermarkets with online delivery and automatic checkouts to avoid queues, and Post Office queues everywhere else
- Great Asian food from take-aways, restaurants and supermarkets
- Chocolate Fudge Cakes, Millionaire's Shortbread, Flapjacks, Banoffee Pies
- Breakfast rolls!
- Frozen croissants for home baking from Redland Village Bakery
- Trips to London
- Relaxed, casually dressed people
- 3's PAYG 3G that doesn't robinson all the time (like Tchibo's) or expire (like O2's)
- BBC iPlayer
- Scottish call centres (and waiting for things to go wrong just to hear the accent)
Food from Chinese Takeaways in Berlin is appalling, and I can't even find one that serves yellow bean sauce... nor can I find a greasy spoon to satisfy my breakfast cravings. :(
And the English countryside is amazing for cycling! The most beautiful little villages dotted everywhere and rolling hills with hedges and dry stone walls between them.

JavaScript debugging
In order to simplify JavaScript debugging, it's useful to have the following code in the [Visualizer]
section of Common7\Packages\Debugger\autoexp.dat
:
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; JSString
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JSString{
preview ( [$e.mChars,su] )
stringview ( [$e.mChars,sub] )
children
(
#if(!($e.mLength & JSString::DEPENDENT))
(
#(
[actual members]: [$e,!] ,
#array
(
expr: $e.mChars[$i],
size: $e.mLength & JSString::LENGTH_MASK
)
)
)
#else
(
; Dependent strings aren't done yet
#(
[actual members]: [$e,!],
#array
(
expr: $e.mChars[$i],
size: $e.mLength & JSString::LENGTH_MASK
)
)
)
)
}
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; JSObject
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JSObject{
preview (
#(
(void *)&$e,
" [object ",
[((JSClass *)($e.classword & ~3))->name,s],
"]"
)
)
children (
#(
#(#(#(
[actual members]: [$e,!],
#if ($e.fslots[0])
(
#(prototype : (JSObject *)($e.fslots[0] & ~7))
)),
#if ($e.fslots[1])
(
#(parent : (JSObject *)($e.fslots[1] & ~7))
)),
#if (((JSClass *)($e.classword & ~3))->flags & 1)
(
#(private : (void *)($e.fslots[2]))
)),
#(class : (JSClass *)($e.classword & ~3))
)
)
}
