OK, well that all ended up fine - got in to Dublin at about 2:30, managed to make it to where I was meant to be, and raced through a day's training in 2 hours. Go me !
More later.

Off to a flying start so far (excuse the shitty pun) - I've managed to miss my flight to Dublin, and am presently on standbyin Gatwick for the 1:15 flight. Interestingly, the thingabout standby is that they don'ttell you whether you're on the flight or not until 10 mins before checkin closes. As [...]

Am a bit cranky tonight - missed Tai Chi because the fecking Victoria Line was shut due to “Passenger action at King's Cross”. There was nothing about it on the BBC site, so there's every chance it was just someone sick on the train or something. Still, not v. happy. Plus, at [...]

Can't say I'm overwhelmed with confidence about our building security arrangements here… I know that in the main, the primary group inconvenienced by building security are in fact the day-to-day users of the building, however I can't help but think that the numpties in charge of this place have somewhat missed the point.

Sadly, I didn't get to writing about my Stockholm or Falconry trips like I'd intended to, but on the upside, I did manage to cook up a load of Tom [...]

It's true, I've been watching Father Ted a lot lately… It's not exactly all advanced or subtle humour, but it's still got me giggling like mad, and it has my contemporaries rolling their eyes as they've all been through this back when it first came out (about 10 years ago) and it's just me [...]

Speaking of wondrous geography, at the behest of Patrick, I have been having a bit of a go at the latest toy from those crazy boffins in the Google Labs, Google Earth. I can't say I've thought of a practical use for it, but it's quite a lot of fun !
It's pretty mind blowing [...]

I haven't really given this thing much attention of late… Ah well, you get that.
A couple of days ago I got a call from one of my favourite social sub-class members, an IT Recruitment Consultant. A handful of them are very very good at what they do, thorough, and conscientious (Jill, if you're [...]
