Changes - Tue 1/6
Bah. In the middle of rebuilding a PowerBook if the wrong time to discover that your IM provider has decided to go all secure and disable non-SSL logins, and that yo,r Newton IM client won't let you suffix the server name with an alternative port number. Oh well. Goodbye hot-chilli.net, hello neko.im. In other bigger news, the Mondeo has decided to give up the ghost. Well, very annoyingly the shell of the car would keep going for a good while yet, but it has blown the replacement engine I got for it last year, so it really needs to be replaced now. Thankfully dad qualifies for a Motability car, so we now have one on order, so we have to wait for it to arrive. MG is in for its MoT test. Failed as expected, but not as horribly as feared. Should have it back soon, complicated by next weeks trip to London for the UK Ingres Users Association conference. But that's for next time!
