The wind has knocked part of my fence over :(

Since wednesday (the 22nd) I've been able to use my ADSL connection, so I now have IPv4, (native) IPv6 and multicast IPv4 at the fastest possible speeds. :)

Now if only I had a username and password to connect with, and account details of where to send money...

My ticket has arrived :)

After moving into a flat in Dalgety Bay on Saturday, I'm now waiting for a proper internet connection. The speed of dialup is really annoying me. It takes BT 14 hours to reconnect a phone line but 3 days to notice it exists and a further 7 days to activate ADSL on it...

For a long time my old mouse has been registering two left clicks if pressed a certain way - which is really annoying. I've finally got around to replacing it with a Logitech LX3.

I'm putting in coax cables to redistribute the TV signal around the house and needed to put an extra socket in my room. Unfortunately there's a piece of wood right behind where I cut the hole...

After having to wake up at 6:30am to get to the morning graduation ceremony at the Festival Theatre, I'm now back home. Everything went fine until it started raining on the garden party just after 4pm. I now have my degree certificate and an alumni pin.

This is great news :) FFII has an explanation.
