Yup… apologies once again for the downtime over the last few weeks… the day I left for Wales to start my new job was the day my broadband decided to start playing up, so for the first 2 weeks I was totally cut off – no email cuz my server was down, no mobile phone allowed in the office, no laptop in the office because it hadn’t arrived yet… Oh well, at least now the server is up and running in the Coed Hirwaun Data Centre. The problem seemed to be caused by one of the power supplies to one of my USB hard drive enclosures – it was making a funny buzzing noise and was causing the broadband connection to drop out.. Strange, but at least the server was designed with resiliance and is now running off just the one hard drive (touch wood that I don’t get a drive crash now!).

In other news… Poppy’s birthday card was shown on CBeebies. I recorded it and have put it up in the video pages. I’ll also put up a edit of her 2nd birthday video soon too. I’ve bought a laptop so as I can edit the footage here in Wales – also so as I can finish off James and Jo’s wedding video that I filmed a few weeks back too (it’s an Asus X53SR for the geeks reading this.. was very cheap at PC World….).

Anyway, it’s weird being sort of on my own in the evenings… I have Vicky’s parents around but it’s not quite the same… they don’t nag quite the same as the wife I have on the other hand almost finished watching every single episode of Red Dwarf ever made, but can’t get any further than 70% completed on Ridge Racer 7.

And one final note, does anyone want to buy a 3-bed semi in Bedworth? Please?
