Meerkats like the sun?!

Canonical Design maverick meerkat Ubuntu Desktop work

Today I got another e-mail from a statue. There’s a perfectly normal sentence … This time from a beach where Rick says he’s having an amazing time relaxing after his conference!

So what have we learned so far, apart from the fact that an unattended Meerkat is likely to wander off if left for too long? Well he seems to enjoy the beach and is making friends along the way. I think he’s still in Brazil …

If you see Rick please let me know!
