Struggling to stay awake, atm.

Gosh.
After 3 crashes, a blue screen of death or two, refusal to run the control panel, I've finally got this P90 to run a dos box in Win95.
I'm sure that uninstalling Norton helped a lot too.
Now it's reading the 16 analogue channels on the a2d card.
Allegedly.
Next is the construction of the 25W d to put some voltages on the thing.Comment

I'm cold.
Travelodge don't waste any money on heating. The tiny wall heater is on maximum and wouldn't defrost a tramp's socks.
But it might help if the window closed properly.
(And this hotel is a dump. Missing bulbs, filthy carpets, £5 per day to park (FFS), metal tape holding the carpet down, dirty linen in the corridors all day and night, no aerial for the telly, bedside 'thing' snapped off the wall leaving three holes, one towel, a shower that alternates between scalding and cold. Still, it has one good thing about it. It has reminded me why I don't like to stay in big chain hotels.)My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.Comment

It is a bit hit and miss with travelodge. Some are as old as the hills and carpy to boot and some are not bad.
Hope you fare better next week.
On that note, i must take my weary head ff to bed and make amends for the paltry 3 hours I got last night.

I once had to leave my bed during the middle of the night while staying at a hotel in Houston because a family from the Middle East tried to cook a whole sheep in their bath but only to succeed in burning down the entire hotel wing.
I cant imagine what it said on their itemized bill.

I kept a fan heater in the car in those days, for emergency use when the ice appeared inside the windows of the Travel Lodge.Comment
