Well staying up till nearly 3:00am wasn’t such a good idea, I slept in this morning and had to rush to work and make my excuses (note to self “go to bed earlier in future”)
Had a few problems with the Rat-Kam as well, its a Logitech Wireless, and it would seem someone nearby must either have a ham radio or be a taxi driver as something kept interfering with the signal, hopefully got it sorted now.

Work wise today was the usual crap, had to take some photo’s of some toolkits to be included in a online catalogue were doing at work, didn’t want to but apparently my boss thinks taking photo’s with a digital camera comes under the umbrella of the IT Dept, next they’ll have me repairing the Microwave in the canteen cause it has a circuit board in it ff’s.
Smoked about 5 ciggy’s today, shouldn’t really be smoking any but what the hell I’m gonna die someday anyway, drank to much coffee, probably cause I was still tired from last night.
Had some good news and some bad news regarding the Lan Party I’m helping organise, good news 1st, Kate at NTL’s PR company informed me that she’s going to put our proposals for sponsorship to them tomorrow and that she thinks what were asking for is spot on, she also said they’ll probably offer a years free Broadband as a prize for our Tournament Winners, which I think is rather cool, so keeping my fingers crossed on this one.

Now the bad news : We’ve now been informed by the people who were renting the premises off for the Lan Party need the cash now and were still short by about �50, on top of that the liability insurance is gonna cost us over �100, so were desperately trying to get more people to sign up for the Lan, got 21 so far, but we aim to get 50 at least.
Anyway hungry now so l8z
