Out of interest; is this using your own home phone line, a new line especially for the job, a mobile or an IP phone? Home-workers are a big part of my work, so I'm interested in any kind of feedback on the success of various options.

I've got a new phone that I'm having to charge for '4 hours' before I can use it proper :x

I've sorted pretty much everything under my bed :D Just got to dismantle the masses of leads which made up four or five different networks :shock:

Next year I'm virtualising most of my networks, so it should be much, much tidier! I'll be down to two physical networks I think: The main, internet centric, network which the server and Macs will be on. The Sun Ray network, with perhaps two Sun Rays on. And the demo network for physical machines which need access, but not to everything....Wait, d'oh! Three physical networks...Wires galore!!

After under my bed should be the other side of my room, moving across to my desk, which I'm dreading, but until the desk is done, everything else isn't properly done...

Take a guess who's far greater than that, Edd?

Just opened the box of goodies that arrived today.
2 x solid brake discs
2 x vented, grooved brake discs
2 x front brake pad set
2 x rear brake pad set
copper grease
brake assembly cleaner
2 litres DOT 4 brake fluid
Bleed tube.

Whole lot, delivered for £88.98. I reckon £20 a corner for brakes isn't too bad.

This is using a new line which I purchased especially for the job. The training sessions are done using IP phones, however, which seem to work quite well.

I have just realised that "Everybody Wants to Rule The World" (Clicky) sounds suspiciously similar to the Fireman Sam theme tune in parts.

Why is it that a mediocre day can come tumbling down to leave you feeling crap just before bed? :cry:

I reckon I'm gonna mull things over, dwell on the bits that shouldn't be dwelled on and perhaps settle into a some sort of snooze...

Catch you all first thing...

Porn is the answer. Go on, have a tug. You know you'll feel better :lol:

Seriously though, hope you get some sleep and that things really will seem better in the light of day.

Poor you. The original TV mini series was far superior...
