I haven’t actually been anywhere mind you, it’s just been crazy hot weather and too many things to do. Such as!
Server Crash!
Not this one, thankfully, but while copying some MySQL tables via phpMyAdmin the server spat it’s dummy and deleted all the databases, plus a few email accounts and even the odd website for good measure. This happened on a Friday afternoon as well – what a great weekend I had!
Hemswell Car Boot
Decided to get rid of a shedload of stuff at Hemswell and managed to sell a few books, some CDs, my spare UPS and a pretty decent chessboard amongst other things. Made the best part of £90 before coming back with sunburn.
Heatwave!
Britain is basically melting this week and nobody wants to do anything. I heard earlier on t’news that temperatures may hit 39°C here. I’ve had 33°C in my office and that was bad enough in just my pants – I can’t imaging what 39 is going to feel like. Maybe I should set up a webcam and point it at the thermometer so you can all see how bad it is. Heh.
Work work work.
Lots of work going on last week with two large projects finishing. For that reason I’ve been swapping between the two and trying to keep both sets of clients happy. Sometimes I get a thirty minutes to myself before the phone starts ringing again. Sigh…
Dreamcast!
Actually, not much to tell here. I bought one at Hemswell for a fiver and got another on eBay and I was going to bid on a load of games but forgot to, so I don’t have anything to play on it yet. I’m looking to get into the whole DC malarky again because, let’s face it, the Dreamcast was the Best Console Ever.
