Glad me few remaining brain cells don't have to deal with such complex problems anymore NF. Still trying to figure out how me mappy thing is about 15 x 5 pixels off.

Some Indian leftovers for lunch

Lunch was scrambled eggs on toast.

I got some fancy pants eggs from Waitrose and the colour of the yolks is very striking indeed. The eggs themselves tasted nice but, without doing a side-by-side comparison with normal free range eggs, I don't know if they're 'better'. I had heard some farmers feed their chickens things like turmeric to make the egg yolk more orangey coloured. I don't believe the colour has any bearing on the nutritional content.

Good afternoon all,

This week's soup is sans parsnips and so much nicer with the added bonus of extra thick bacon from the butcher.

Wind 7 kt from the North/Northwest, varying between West/Northwest and North
Temperature 4°C
Humidity 60%
Pressure 1016 hPa
Visibility 10 km or more

Managed to get a check flight in over the weekend. Three circuits (normal, flapless and a glide one) and a practised forced landing.

A second contract has arrived.

Haven't written a line of code in 5 or 6 years. Probly can't remember how any more.

No great loss really but I would like to make a replacement zapper for the tv/freesat box.

Trouble is that every box I turn on seems to die*.

At least some of them still run Freecell, which is really all that matters now.

*The really irritating one is the one that successfully ran Win2k for years & years, then refused to boot and refuses to install on a fresh hd. Frustrating. Generates a STOP then restarts so I can't even figure out WTF is wrong with it.

You don't need to remember, Google does it for you. I still like messing about with code, mostly just website stuff, php, jscript etc and Excel VBA.

I see that Only Connect is back to normal after its Christmas specials. It’s a semifinal tonight. At least one of us knows the result of it already

Never used any of those, mostly FORTRAN (35 years ago), C (6 or 7 years ago), VB (7 or 8 years ago), CAP16 assembler, Z80 assembler, 8086 assembler, 8085 assembler, 6805 assembler, and most recently Microchip PIC assembler (which is what the tv zapper code is written in, all 240 words of it).

Ah, dear dead days beyond recall.

I forgot to include 6303 assembler.

Thanks for the reminder!
