Anniversary

Today is our 8th wedding anniversary, we’ve been out for a lovely italian meal, which was fantastic. Birmingham 0-7 Liverpool – RAR! Updated banshee packages to the latest version, and added subpackage, banshee-plugins-default to match the SUSE package nomenclature.

Sunday

Well, as of today, my placement at St Luke’s has officially concluded. We’re going to stay at the church as much as is possible though, they’ve been really great to us. Liverpool beat Newcastle 3-1 this afternoon, pretty confident for third place in the Premiership now, but with Man Utd having two games in hand …

Okay, first usr local bin packages for Factory/10.1 are available now.

The packages available so far are: banshee beagle gnome-themes-extras sensors-applet tomboy ulb-themes Of …

Palm annoyance

My wretched Palm m105 has done it again! Batteries were running low, so I swapped them for new ones, and even though I did well within the minutes you supposedly have before data loss, everything went again! I’m this close ][ to giving up on the bloody thing. And, I’ve found the PDA that I …

A couple of links…

…to sum up Saturday. A lazy lie in, followed by tweaking my CTW202 essay slightly was followed by heading into Nottingham where we had lunch at one of Nottingham’s Slug and Lettuces, which was nice. Hadn’t been before, but it was good food, and the wine was excellent. Are you an alumnus of Lancaster University? …

Friday

BS202 is approaching being finished. Got down to it at about 15.00 today after the college community day. I was on a small team that cleared out the games room/gym. So we can now actually get at all the equipment in there. Who knows, I may start using the exercise bike in there… Timo: Cool …

We’ll always have Istanbul

Wasn’t able to see the match as it was on Sky Sports, and to be honest given the outcome and apparently woeful display by our forwards, especially Morientes, I’m quite glad. I still have photos from that night in May up in my study, and this year there’s still the FA Cup, and who knows, …

Achievements

CTW202 finished. In fact, I went over the upper word limit, and had to edit it down. Bled all our radiators and re-pressurised the boiler this evening, which has allowed the house to be a lot warmer than it has been in a long time.

Wednesday

Wow, another ton of updates from Factory. One thing I’ve discovered is that Smart isn’t happy with doing a full Factory update, this is (I suspect) because when you download over 2G of packages which it then has to install, it has to put the lot in memory (look at the output from free -m …

Monday

Yesterday was the college quiet day, and my fellowship group went down to Edwalton to share communion before spending the morning in quiet prayer, reading etc. Last night was the latest Worship Space evening at college. I was leading the meeting, and Mike was supposed to be speaking but unfortunately broke down on the way, …
