Ah, I must have just missed you!

I will be back there later when I've finished setting up the till for the Oakdale's beer festival (starting tomorrow).

Bloody computers!

I spent ages trying to figure out why the till wasn't booting (via DHCP/TFTP/etc. under control of a PXE bootrom). It appeared to be able to send packets fine, but could only receive them very occasionally. I went back to the Pembury to retrieve my networking tools and spare cable to make a replacement cable - no luck. Plugging the cable into my laptop Just Worked, so it wasn't the cable or the network.

Eventually I turned off the till. When I turned it on again it Just Worked. Aargh! (During testing I'd been hitting the reset switch, not turning it off.) It must have been something along the lines of the network controller failing to start up properly the first time I switched it on.

Bloody computers! I don't know why I bother sometimes!

It seems to be getting that way, yes.

There are times I can't go due to rehearsals and so on. But really, my brain isn't always good for much on Tuesday afternoons after seeing the brainhacker, so making a beeline for the pub and having a relaxing afternoon of intarweb followed by some company is a Good Thing. It's also a sortof-date with [livejournal.com profile] pfy.

Used to regularly attend a Borders meetup on Tuesday evenings but it fell apart when too many people moved away.

Okay, where did the "I'm in UR..." meme come from? You've just brought it into my friends page independently of the other streak of it I have, so I'm confused. :-)

Apparently, it's from a game.
