Good time eh?

So. People have been bullying me into writing another entry – I mean, it’s not like people are short on stuff to read on here…I mean how many of you can remember the earliest entries? No… you can’t can you. So you could re-read them couldn’t you…. :-P

Anyway, I’ve been meaning to do a new entry for a while.

Okay, I got interrupted for a few minutes.

But I’m actually feeling much better than I have been for a while, I’ve managed to shove my little demons back into their box for a bit. Actually, to be honest they keep leaping out and attacking me without any warning.

Failing my driving test seems t have been the nudge my brain needed to be able to start attacking me again. Which was nice. I’d forgotten what it was like – but anyway, it seems ot have settled down again now. At least, so long as I don’t think about my driving test too much. Or any of my other miriad of failings.

So, we’ll see if we can’t keep the misery in a box for the time being.

Anyway, so I’ve been using the RiscPC for the last few days, I’d forgotten how much I liked RISC OS – anyway, it’s been mostly okay, it was very crashy the first few days but it seems to have settled back down again. It’s still no-where near as good as it used to be, reliability wise, but then I guess I’ve been pushing it harder. That and I’ve discovered that OmniClients NFS protocol stuff is crappy, which means that I can’t listen to streamed MP3s on this machine, despite it being quite definately fast enough.

Grr. We’ve got a copy (original) of LanMan98 around here, apparently, which should fix the problem….but finding it’s obviously the issue.

So…

Yes, I failed my bike test. Unfortunately for me I had a car examiner, who clearly had no fucking idea about bikes; and I quote: “I have ridden a bike you know”. Yeah, uh hu.

*sigh*

So, what’s going on with regolith? – well, we’re currently gathering sales figures, well, hoping to. Next week is A day – our advert’ll appear in next weeks NME, so we’ll be sorting out prices today.

But I’ve got to take a temp job, because well, I’m broke. I’ve got bills to pay and no money, so….I shall be trundling up the road to ManPower later today – I’m trying to remember how this stuff worked – do I need a CV? I guess I better print one anyway…

Just in case.

So….Oh, and I might drop off the film today….so the pictures of the ‘zed should be up fairly soon.
