    Time for bed, said Zebedee
    …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

      That's the shopping done, sufficient to get me through Easter without having to brave the hordes

      After causing huge inconvenience to everybody replacing the petrol pumps at big Sainsbury's so they can do pay-at-pump, they've finally finished. But they haven't actually done the pay-at-pump bit

      It looks like all they need to do is remove the big blanking plates covering the bit of the pump where the p-a-p stuff is, but some other systems on which it depends aren't ready. But how they can manage all that ripping out and putting in of great big pumps and stuff, yet can't have some computer in the back room ready for when they've finished, is a mystery.

      Oh well, maybe they'll have it sorted out for August Bank Holiday

          Well the customer with the PIC18F came back & demanded one of my nice brand new PICKIT3.

          Never been opened.

          Dunno who he is or what he's doing.

            I think that's about the last straw.

            Along with the elf & safety feckwhit who'll be doing some sort of assessment shortly.

                Further news on the ZeitBigClock(tm) front: the comms between the pic & the DS1307 clock chip appear to be screwed in some odd way.

                But then again, for some reason it's sending 0xff six times where I would expect* it to send 0x00, 0x01, 0x02, 0x03,0x04 and 0x05.

                Slightly mystified, all in all.

                *well that's what the program source file says it should be sending. YMMV

                  Nearly time to wander off down the hill.

                  I can barely wait.

                  Er, I can hardly wait.

                  Er, quit now.
