Busy Little Bee

I was a busy little bee today at work. Three releases, two estimates, and one major disaster solved! It doesn’t get any easier. I ended up working a few hours overtime to sort a serious problem on one of the clients live sites. At least I don’t have to be around at 5am tomorrow when the fix goes in!

Couldn’t Be Bothered

I was contemplating doing some work tonight. I got a pile of stuff (including two releases) to do for tomorrow lunchtime and I’m not sure I can get it all done in time.
So I thought I could start one of the releases from home, but in the end I couldn’t be bothered.
Hohum.

Cafelog Down?

Hmmm. It looks like the cafelog domain is down. As is Tidak Ada home of Michel’s Blog and the B2 forum. I’ve suspended the Recently updated B2 blogs in the side bar to avoid errors.

Update: They are both back now. Although Michel’s blog seems to have not had an entry since early November.

Carol Festival

We went to the Stockport Junior Schools’ Carol Festival tonight. Jamie was singing in the choir along with some of her classmates. Some members of the Stockport Youth Orchestra were there too. Even the Mayor and Mayoress turned up 🙂
It was a good concert. I don’t usually like the sound of lots of children singing but these were particularly good. I think they must have had lots of practice.
The festival was held in St George’s Church which is quite a large impressive building. The voices sounded good in that setting.

The Mammoth Hunters – Finished

Phew, I’ve just finished The Mammoth Hunters by Jean M Auel. It’s a much more of a girly love story than the first two books, but a fantastic read anyway. There is definitely a change of pace in this book compared to the first two. The two main characters meeting the mammoth hunters of the title allows for much broader character development. The constant repetition of known facts was a little annoying, but in all, a good tale very well told.
Recommended!

It’s on to The Plains Of Passage next. I remember this being a slow book. It’s certainly a lot thicker than the first three.
