Morning all, Feeling more tired today...I was taken from work to try and fix someone's TomTom last night. It is four years out of date and the TomTom software kept saying "pay us X to get up to date and then you MUST pay us Y to stay up to date for the next year", after agreeing that £40 was OK to spend I tried to go ahead with it but kept getting the same server error I got when I tried two weeks ago  Damn useless thing, buy a bloody map! Maps don't cause you hours and hours of anguish unless you don't know how to read them, in which case there is one solution: learn. *wanders off to make tea and toast hot cross buns*

Morning.
Some nice people will come and take away a junk-heap copier today. Which means we need to remove all the crap we've piled on it in the last six months, and then we have to put a load more crap in its place when it's gone.
Apart from that, I think I'll spend the day being creative with the hands again. Although I tend to sit hunched over the workbench for too long, I find it quite relaxing - it also lets me keep an eye out for delivery vans...
Onwards and sideways.
Oh, Al. I meant to say if they want you to remain at work another month, and you want to, suggest you do it as a freelance consultant and they pay you an hourly rate. Might work.

Morning. Think I'm going to head to campus soon-ish, after I discover all of last night's postings.

Lo peeps The official word comes through today..... sometime Meanwhile the Mac family seem to have been struck down with a sickness/other stuff bug Thou shalt not be a consultant for the council once departed - some bad press years ago where several staff took a package and then were immediately hired at the same wage rate. I do however, intend to work freelance for a photography company just about to be set up (by the wife). It would appear there's already some work in the pipeline...... Al

Morning all, just woken up and my train leaves in three minutes...I don't recall turning my phone off and going back to sleep, but I may well have done... Anyhoo, I've woken up to find a friend on Facebook has had their iPhone 4 ran over by a car...And it's still in near perfect condition! Just some scratches on the antenna! Right, the next train is two hours...So I can have a proper breakfast today

Morning all, Wasn't feeling well yesterday, and feeling ten times worse today. Phoned and emailed the boss lady to let her know I won't be in today, and once I get Brooke off to school I'll be going back to bed. Have a great day everyone.

Edd, sorry man but I had to declare my love for your girlfriend last night. One of her text messages prompted the outpouring, but if you require any further information you'll have to ask her. Sorry dude, nothing personal against you. I hope we can still be friends after this. In other news, my new tripod should, hopefully, be arriving today. Morning all.

Hello all. Blimey, Mark. *looks slightly embarrassed and uneasy* Anyway, changing the subject, new toy! I shall be figuring out all the buttons and menus today, and then trying to take a nice photo or two if the mist decides to lift later.
