Brrr again!

Wednesday, November 30th, 2005

It’s so cold here… the temp is showing 9.9C

The heating is on, but it’s not good enough. I mean… when I breathe, I see mists coming out of my mouth. That’s how cold the house is!!

Looks like it will be icy again overnight.

*cooks dinner*

Server move is going well. Only 3 domains left, hoping to do it this weekend.

Sleep time

Snow and work

Friday, November 25th, 2005

The snow has been coming on and off. It can’t make up their mind! :)

Work was okay, but been busy driving around, setting up server, coming back t work, redoing software package and much more. And finished late when I was supposed to finish at 4pm. Nevermind…

Tonight, friend’s birthday party and we’re driving back to Norwich again. Hope the snow will stay away. :)

Snow

Thursday, November 24th, 2005

Yeah, it has started to snow at 8:30pm in Norwich.

But now that I’m back home 10 miles away from Norwich, there’s nothing… guess it’s on the way. Or not.

We will find out tomorrow. :)

Going to sleep soon

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2005

Snow or not tomorrow - that’s the question.

I’m sure it will snow in Scotland and we’ll get ice in Norfolk. We’ll see.

Stay safe.

Half Day

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2005

Managed to get a half day today so can finish off with setting up the server.

But the hard drive partition were all wrong (used the whole partition instead of splitting them up) so have sent a support ticket to get it re-setup again for free (72 hours from new server is free and $50 afterward).

Once it’s all done, the setup can now start.

Managed to clean off the dirt from the car’s headlights - it was dirty & black! But it’s brighter now so I’m happy. :D No point of taking it to the car wash considering the road will be still dirty all of this month and the next few months.

Tomorrow at work - blackboard tour. Should be interesting as we are rolling it out in 2 weeks time. Anyone used it will know what it is.

*rubs hands* Cold… *looks at the time* soon, I’ll be picking up the missus for 5pm and then go shopping for my friend’s birthday party this friday. Not sure what to get her… maybe car related stuff as she is going to get a new car soon. Or something else. *shrugs*

Anyway enough rambling.

Shame I have to go to work. :/ I want to stay here and set them up!

Mmm… half day… heh. Going to ask to see if I can have a half day…

Car’s headlights

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2005

This morning, the road was “dirty” because it has been salt gritted. Along with some light rain. And the water breeze from the car in front as we drove to work this morning. It went on the windscreen and it was all white and leaves streak marks on the windscreen as the wiper wipes. You know what I am talking about, yeah?

Well, tonight, driving along the A11 back home, the headlight wasn’t bright enough and thought the headlight bulb has been burnt out or something.

Got home and it turned out that the headlight was full of dirt! So it just needed a clean…

So remember, everyone, check the headlights are clean before you set off in the dark!

A random message by Tony Sutton to you all.

Another day almost gone

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2005

Looks like i was wrong about the ice last night. even that this morning was cold there was no ice so i did not need to clean the windscreen at all.

Work today was good till nearly at the end me the day where we could not find the network patch. Either it was not set up yet, is in another switch cabinet or not labeled at all. Going to take another look tomorrow and hope to find it.

Tonight, i hope the new server will be online and start setting them up. If not maybe tomorrow. I cant wait to move the stuff over!

Order approved & payment accepted for the dedicated server. Pretty quick, considering I only ordered it yesterday.

Now waiting for the IP address, logon/password, etc.

They reply to tickets a lot quicker than the other hosting provider. So far so good!

Ouch…

Monday, November 21st, 2005

My headaches has disappeared only to be returned from hitting my head on the corner of the kitchen cupboard - bloody hurts!

*nursing my head* :(

The fog has been with us since this morning and it’s still foggy this evening. Guess it means more ice tomorrow.

I’ve cleaned up this room a bit and have two small boxes to go to the storage. Yay me. And pick up the extra duvet for our bed to keep us warm!

Tested the PC to TV output from my Mini ITX and it worked well. Now I’m on the mission to find a big but cheap HDD. I saw one which is a 250GB 16MB cache for £65 but ebuyer.com has put it up to £100. Grr, wish I have got that earlier! Nevermind, hopefully I will find one soon, more likely next week as that’s when I will get paid. Then I can spend spend spend. :D

And also I am currently looking around for a good ADSL modem/router with SNMP support so I can give my old one to my mum as she wnats broadband. Anyone recommend one?

Does spontaneous human combustion exist?

Monday, November 21st, 2005

Interesting article…

A character in Charles Dickens’ Bleak House burns to death without any apparent reason. Human spontaneous combustion is a belief which has been around for centuries but does it really exist?

Bleh

Monday, November 21st, 2005

The bleh thing is still here… I went to work this morning, but didn’t feel right so I’ve gone home, with some lunch on the way from Waitrose.

I’m eating my lunch now, thinking blank and feeling blahhHH.

Think I’m going to curl up in bed and sleep and hope the blah feeling will go away. Or not.
