Went to a work based learner, to do an exam, but because someone had taken the laptop I planned to take, (these exams have to be booked onto specific laptops, and won't appear on any other machines) I had to quickly book the exam on the spare laptop. Arrived on site and sat around for two hours, doing nothing, as the exam wouldn't download. Gave up in the end and agreed with the student that someone will be back next week to do the exam. He didn't mind, but I did. Completely wasted morning. On the bright side, the wife got her promotion, so she's now in charge of the apps team. This probably means that I won't get my transfer, (to the same team) even though there is no policy in place to prevent it, and as such I'll probably have to get a new job. Oh well, sith happens.  Have a great day everyone.  |  |  |  |  |
Sleeping with the boss would get the team talking :S even if it's a bummer, probably best to not work in same team..

Morning all.
A brief chat to my mate who emigrated to New Zealand at the start of the year via the wonders of Skype this morning. A good start to the day.
Have a good one folks.

Wotcha. It's been a while, but there's not been much to say. I tried to watch a film on the Virgin Media TiVo box version of iPlayer last night. HD wouldn't even begin to steam, and the SD version stalled fifteen minutes in. Apparently this is something that's been going on since at least 2011. As it happens, both the web iPlayer and the iOS app streamed the film happily over wifi, so it's definitely the shonky TiVo app that's at fault. I think I shall pick a fight with Virgin over it.
