I thought the memory was soldered in?

Not that I'm about to alter anything.

Not on the 1000H model.

oh, - morning all

[NickFitz]

Morning denizens

Sunny out

Might leave the shopping until this evening, if only because it gives me an excuse to go to the chip shop on the way back

[NickFitz]

And is this televisual epic providing Sir with satisfaction?

It is indeed

Morning all.

Simpsonsesque here this morning.

Monday marks seven months as a permie. I think I need to cut this tulip out and go back to contracting.

It's easygoing as anything I've ever done, but we don't get much done, work moves at a glacial pace and the commute is usually 90 minutes each way. Traffic in and out of Leicester is some of the worst I've ever encountered.

Perhaps I'll give it a couple of months to enjoy the sunshine and build up a warchest and then put notice in. Sadly it's the usual 3-month notice period so I'd need to ride that out and do the usual trick of picking up a new contract in the last week.

Coming from the south and west, the problem is that there's only four ways over the river from the Fosse Way. One of them is basically in the town centre, the next one down might as well be, and the third ends up in a narrow residential lane with speed bumps. The Romans really didn't think this through

Yes, it's all a bit awkward!

From my POV coming from Nottingham I either have the A46, the A6 or the M1. One of these is a long trawl through Lboro, one is OK until you get to the Hobby Horse (then it's a crawl down Melton Road or go round to a crawl down Abbey Lane. Having Loughborough Road closed shafts both of them) and the M1 is chronic with the 50 limit, roadworks and associated fun. You pays your money and takes your choice!

What did the Romans ever do for us anyway?

Wine?

[PhiltheGreek]

Wine?

Don't mind if I do, cheers. Leave the bottle.

The M1-J22-A50 route has one of the only combined red light and speed cameras in the city, and degenerates rapidly once you get near Blackbird Road, after which once again there's the problem of the only route over the river leading straight into the busiest part of the town centre network. So that's rubbish too
