Car failed its MOT... Brake pipes are shot and tinworm has taken hold in places. Not entirely unexpected for an 18 year old car.

Garage will do a costing for parts on Monday and we'll take it from there. If it's not worth fixing, I'll be on the lookout for something else. In the mean time, I can drive mum's car, so not as crappy as it could be.

Go networked.

It's got USB as well. It's a printer in one of the partner's offices. All us plebs on the top floor share a printer, and we use the big multi-purpose machine in reception for big tasks like sets of accounts because it's cheaper to run. They tried to get us to use the big machine for everything, until some bright spark worked out it was more efficient to use the upstairs printer for one or two pages than go up and down two flights of stairs every time.

Whoever invented ironing should be shot.

Fantastic evening in the pub.

Meet Ragbag who is due to move to Honduras soon to be a surf cat whilst mum and dad run a dive school.

I've just discovered that a pre-Christmas email to my Canadian sister in law has been quietly sitting in my drafts folder. Still, I've sent it now and at least she knows I've wished her a happy Christmas....

It's early for this Xmas.

Damn, I've forgotten to wish her a happy new year! This catch up business is hard work.

70 lengths of the swimming pool tonight.

I can safely say that is the furthest I have swum for well over 25 years. Now, if only I could get my old speed back.
