      My lunch was a bowl of very yummy soup that HWMBO made yesterday. Ham and barley and various veg by the looks of it.

          More scrunching up of paper done in the garage.

          Ancient payslips from the 1950s, 60s, 70s.

          Yesterday there were a couple from the 1940s.

          Astonishingly small amounts of money.

          £5/week in the 40s, going up to £10/week a year later after a change of job.

          £58/month in the late 50s.

          £78/month in the late 60s.

          Oh, and it's raining.

          Some of the afternoon was spent potching about finding duplicate dvds.

          During which the bulb on the torch went.

          I can't remember ever having a torch bulb die on me previously.

          The new bulb is much brighter.

            Hurray. Someone who doesn't know the difference between business continuity and service continuity.

                Business continuity is mainly about the business processes and how people work. If a system goes down what are their workarounds, how long can they last in a degraded state, etc. Service continuity is about making sure your backups are done and accessible, how you restore systems and data in varying adverse or DR scenarios and making sure downed systems are restored in the right order for example.

                BC is often used as a catch all for both but are actually quite different.

                    Ah. Something that Ye Olde Sloughe of Desponde could have done with back in 2013 when the interweb was off for 3 weeks (or was it a fortnight?).

                    <hiatus>

                    Tea: the remainder of yesterday's roast chicken with bacon & a sausage, sadly no cranberry jam to go with it since it ran out yesterday, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.


                    Entertainment: TBD, possibly "Never say Never again (1983)" with that Sean Connery chap.

                      Brisk walk done, green ring closed

                      Seemed as if a shower might be starting as I was in the home straight, but now it seems to be holding off.
