Waking up and having only three days left before I can go home after seven weeks out here in Mexico. It may be warm, but give me my house any day.

A tough office politics type week at work ending 100 times better than it started. Shedloads to do next week but there is some light at the end of the tunnel.

Been doing proper man-things today, although should have been at an OU tutorial - but the train got shit-canned. Took stuff to tip, dropped off stuff at charity shop, been in loft, put an Ikea dressing table together and spent some time in garage........umm.....ironing.

After paying off my mortgage a couple of years ago and deciding to try to make my money work for me I've finally (today) sorted my finances out to give me some kind of decent return until the interest rates normalise.

Ha, just had my annual mortgage statement through - 19 years to go!

I always describe it as " pressing my kit " MM, same thing but I somehow feel better about calling it that !

Only 12 for me!

Strange, innit? The years on your mortgage are not necessarily indicative of the number of years you have left to live. Take me for instance, I'm at somewhere in the region of -20.

Each year I try and set myself a goal of learning/doing something new, so today I went for my first (and not the last) visit to an indoor climbing centre. A friend sent out a generic invite to a group of us and I thought what the hell, I even managed to get to the top on a level 4 climb. I thought I did well for an unfit 14 1/2 stone bloke with a dodgy knee.

A silly cow with a large designer husky getting pulled along on her arse, "mush! mush!" I shouted as she was dragged by at an increasing rate of knots.

Any day, or particularly a week that begins with a faceful of Lilac Vegetal can't be all bad.

Wrote a 1600 word proposal today in about 5 hours. For the last two hours I had the audio of the Democratic Debate in the background. Interesting.

Fathoming a DNS issue between <domain>.nhs.uk and <domain>.gov.uk being the fault of DNSsec with internally certificated servers on the gov.uk side without reference on the nhs.uk side. Who thought it was a good idea to merge health and social care?

Proper punch in the air when I nailed it

There was a time, Paul, when people actually spoke to each other - allegedly. Interdepartmental cooperation - but I have my doubts as to veracity.

Oh, I always begin with talking. Technical faults are always as a result of human action - talk to the human and you'll fix the machine. The technical issue was genuinely a case of "people unable to talk to each other because people were unable to talk to each other". I fixed the latter, so now the former can happen

Punch in the air! Again!

Did you try rebooting first?
