Oops! Put three sausages on when I only meant to have two. Of course, that meant I had to have three rashers of bacon, to keep things in balance. What a shame!
More faffing about making space to assemble bookcases. Thinking now it would have been easier to get a double quantity of the narrow ones instead of the wide ones
Lunch was two bowls of lentil <pfffft> soup from Wednesday, tea was some spag bol, the bol of which was out of the freezer having been created by moi about a fortnight ago.
2nd run of washing has just finished, so I'd better go & peg it out.
I thought the bundle of hotel and car park receipts from 2005 indicated I hang on to paperwork for longer than necessary; then I found a timesheet from 2001
Now to have a look on this USB stick that's been hiding under an armchair for about ten years…
Ooh, interesting! A load of photos from Stonehenge, taken at Summer Solstice 2005
And a folder containing a backup of my work at Bristol's GWR 96.3FM, as it stood at the start of September 2005 (EDIT: ten years ago this week, in fact), when I'd been there about seven weeks.
One rather cool thing about that site (which was implemented for, IIRC, forty-odd local stations across the UK) was that the colour theme changed depending on the time of day, correlating with the different show timeslots: IIRC it went something like orange for the breakfast show, moving into yellow and sky blue through the morning and afternoon shows, then I think grass green for drivetime, going into darker blues and deep pinks for the evening and nighttime shows, and finally a rich purple theme for overnights. This was all controlled simply by specifying a class on the <body> tag.
For testing, I used the space on the page that was intended to be occupied by a tower ad to show a panel of radio buttons, allowing me to switch the theme on the fly with a simple bit of JavaScript
