Automation for business and pleasure.
Tuesday, March 10th, 2009I’m a big fan of automating anything that can be automated. Those of you that may know me, might even call me a bit of a fanatic. That’s the reason I got married, automatic dishwasher on the cheap. There’s a reason for my fanaticism, I believe that the more of ...
Correction <gulp>
Monday, February 23rd, 2009Well, not a big one, but one of my blogless friends has pointed out that I probably mean the Real Time scanner – but I’m 99% sure its called the On Demand scanner. Here’s the courtesy link to his website ;) Either way, its the one that ...
The value of time.
Wednesday, January 21st, 2009Image via Wikipedia I’ll never understand how some people in IT departments don’t grasp the value of a developers time. Its a false economy to provide anything but the absolute fastest PC for a developer. I’m not really sure where the real problem lies. ...

I’m not sure I should be publicly admitting to reverse engineering Larry’s baby but if its the only way I can find out what broken, ...
4 Days in and its all peachy.
Monday, January 19th, 2009Apart from not understanding how to catch trains properly for the first 2days, everything’s going pretty well. The team is switched on, and the work is interesting so its all good :) What I do find a bit puzzling is that other than Sheffield station there’s no way to ...
It’s All GO!
Tuesday, January 13th, 2009Image by Neil T via Flickr Ok, so after after a short break over Christmas, I though I’d better pull my socks up and start looking for a new contract. As everyone returned to work on the 5th of Jan, I wasn’t expecting ...
Long Time No Post part 2!
Sunday, November 2nd, 2008Image by Getty Images via Daylife Lol! No sooner than I promise to post more frequently I swan off on a weeks holiday to the sunny southwest of England for a last minute kite-surf session. Well, in between the temperatures reaching sub ...
