One of those days where I’ve decided that I’m making pizza for dinner because I can, and it will have both pineapple and many anchovies. It might be a deeply divisive statement to make but sometimes you just need to stand up for what you believe in. 🍕
Project managers often appear incapable of admitting that things are not going well and always want to put the best spin on things. Amazing how saying the magic word - showstopper - during user acceptance testing tends to focus them and finally deliver the attention needed.
“Should have bought me a hammock”.
Not content with slowing clawing the chair to pieces the cat has been making the underneath a little hiding spot. This is why I think of it as the ‘sacrificial chair’.

Recently I’ve been using my iPhone without a case. The design and colour really is lovely to look at and shouldn’t be hidden away. The one thing that keeps bugging me is the way it doesn’t sit flat thanks to the camera. It just seems wrong. Function versus design, function won.
We’ve been asked to put up new nameplates with a photo you like and also a spot for “a fun fact or a special quote that has meaning for you”.
I talk about the cat enough at work that she had to be in the photo and I also included my special quote.
I recently removed roller blinds so the painter could patch the holes before painting. I have to wait a bit for the new shutters to go in so I’ve put up some temporary solutions at the windows. Block the neighbours but also to stop losing heat through the glass on cold nights.

The fact that the price of Australian domestic gas is linked to the export price was a failure by the government of the time.
Trying to decide what to name a new member of the device family is proving difficult. I have themes I use but I’ve grown attached to my iMac being called Holly (Red Dwarf) that I can’t decide what to name the replacement. I’ve already used Orac, Zen, Dr Theopolis & Number 5.
