I no longer work in IT. I am no longer paid to be a UNIX System Administrator. I am not looking for a new role. No matter how much money you offer me, I am not interested. Please stop phoning me!

So much pap!
Today I received an order from my favourite Christian bookshop. I won’t mention the company name as it wouldn’t be fair given the nature of this post. On the whole I really respect the company in question – their profits go to charity and one of our best friends is a senior manager there. Anyway, …

Tinselworm
Friday night, we went and saw Bill Bailey live in Birmingham as part of his Tinselworm tour. We were, apparently, the largest audience he’d ever performed to and I’m not surprised. The gig was at the National Indoor Arena which, even with one block of seats unsold (presumably because of line of sight issues – …

Whistling
Roger: perhaps we should revert to the image below for your entries on Planet SUSE? I myself often get mistaken for the local curate and no matter how much I deny it, people insist that I am. Perhaps they know something I don’t…

Sometimes…
Sometimes: Only some Guns ‘n’ Roses will do. Actually, only some Manic Street Preachers will do. I wake up not knowing what day it is. My heart sinks when the phone rings. I almost consider watching a reality TV show. I want to fight for people’s rights. I get frustrated when computers don’t behave as …
