I've done that before, but I realised I was a named version behind, and things seem to rot quite rapidly in Eclipseland, so I figured I'd bite the bullet.Originally posted by eek View PostDon't you use a mac. Just time machine back to before you began....
Then it turned out Eclipse Marketplace is down, so I decided the Universe didn't want me doing anything today.

A friend is going through a rough patch so she is staying with us tonight. Will probably have a takeaway and watch a film.
Dropping armour off to my armourer tomorrow for repairs and to restrap my shield, then taking the kids to a theme park.
Nothing planned for the evening. I will try to find time to play with some new C++ concepts from the latest release.
Church Sunday morning, fight practice Sunday afternoon. Might play with my new spear.
I am guessing that Sunday evening will be spent drugged up to stop the pain of the rib I seem to have popped out last week.
