Done.

Bugger - just remembered I'm supposed to be doing a release at 6pm...

And rebooting the server because the MS updates (which apparently we can't turn off because of 'policy') have screwed MDAC meaning that excel uploads are no longer working. Although why this is the developer's job, I have no idea...

You need an Environments Manager, granted I did MS updates on our TFS server and put the project off line for 4 days.

Just got wind PM is making noises about what I am doing after this project ends, might have a gig lined up in London already as they look to replace the third party hosting provider, not sure if its or but politely reminded them I have a well earned nervous breakdown booked in for the start of August followed by a month in Spain

That one's hilarious!

I'm fortunate that there are a few people who are or were much more famous than me to hide me from Google's evil search.

Me too.

Some of mine have spent more time in space than I have.

Currently watching Ray Mears going west.

No junior, although I assume on the instruction of supposed technical authority who I try to undermine at every opportunity but yet he still seems to rate me highly, but given the permies there I'm aiming low for comparison

In favour of working in London:

More grub clubs
More money
More time with smoking hot lady BA

Against:

More time away from the kids after spending so much effort getting them to move up to Yorkshire
