    Morning all

    Sunny, just a few wisps here and there. Currently -1 ('feels like' -4) with a high of 4 expected. Barometer up to 1014 mBar.

    Sunrise 07:28; Sunset 16:06 GMT

    There was a tiny bit of ice on the car when I left for the office. Got in early for an 8am meeting that was cancelled.

      Morning all
      Blue skies and sunshine here and a bit of snow on the roads.
      …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

        Lunch: cold chicken leg, again

        It’s quite cloudy out, but not the kind that tend to rain on one and blue sky is visible through a number of gaps

        It was a fairly productive morning, and may also be a fairly productive afternoon; we shall see

          Another week done, and only twelve more working days for me this year!

          The afternoon went reasonably well, I thought. There was the minor issue of causing a division-by-zero error in the database, but it was only in the hotfix environment, and that’s what it’s for, really

          I’d actually mentioned a few days ago that we’d have to guard against that very thing, but left it on the to-do list as it didn’t happen in local development because of the dummy data we use. The other dev suggested we were at a good point to give the app a try against some real data, so we deployed it and it immediately blew up. Didn’t take me long to fix, though I ended up working an extra half-hour getting the changes deployed. But that was mainly sitting around waiting for builds and stuff to happen, and it was worth spending the time to make sure she’s got something stable to work with when I’m off tomorrow

            Quite day work-wise. Knackering afternoon walking around Terminal 3 looking for self-service wheelchairs. Apparently I walked 4 miles

              Tea was brought to me from the Turkish place, because I had a voucher for £8 off that was about to expire

                I watched some more of the Netflix Yorkshire Ripper documentary earlier

                And then I finished Going Going Gone and therefore the entire Dryco saga. Excellent stuff, and I reckon I’ll read them again some time, as sometimes events or people from earlier in the story appear in a different light in relation to later aspects - quite an achievement really, given that they weren’t even written in order!

                Friday tomorrow, and I have to be up early as the plumbers will be turning up to see if the mysterious leak is coming from my flat

                Goodnight all
