Assorted Ramblings… This Week, Monday 23rd June 2014 23 Jun 201423 Jun 2014 I Am Made Of Wood And Earth, Air, Fire and Water. But mainly wood. The kind of wood that's been soaked so you can bend it into a pretty table.…
Assorted Ramblings… This Week, Monday 9 June 2014 11 Jun 201411 Jun 2014 Week One Is Over A sense of relief. As promised, last weekend's insane ICT migration completed with a paucity of useful information and no assurance of success. Thus does…
