“Incase of upheaval, fundamental movement below,
What’s really going on I want to know,
But yo, we don’t show on the outside, so slide.”

Howdy y’all As I type, I’m somewhat full of a rather nice tea. That’s the second nosh-out in as many days. Not that I’m complaining, I should add. While it might not be so good for the waistline, it most certainly is good for the soul. For the first time in a while, myself and the Ever Lovely Mrs Jones were without the nippers. Wee Man was at a sleep over and Little Miss was at Granny’s. So what to do? Well, probably what most middle class farties do: to the gastropub! 🙂 Glib comments aside, we both had a lovely meal together. I was great not to have to rush back and just relax in each other’s company. It’s […]

“Come take a trip with me, to Future World”

Uncategorized

Hiya, I had jotted some notes down on a bit of paper for today’s post. Thing is, I got busy at work. Friday afternoon is not the time for meetings. Actually, is any time a good time for a meeting? 😉 I find that trying stuff just for the craic works best on a Friday. That bit of technical wizardry you’ve put off and now the office is quiet, you can get your head around the problem. Anyhoo, after a bit of thinking outside the box, the development systems can now do few more things can it could before. Yay for results. Seems I’m not the only one who’s been bashing the scripting rocks together either. Blogger have released a […]

“My need is such I pretend too much”

Uncategorized

Hiya, It’s been a bit of an iffy week this time around. A little lacking in the sleep department, a touch too much going on at work and stuff just adding up. I think that lack of sleep didn’t really help and I was beginning to feel like I was slipping back into bad old habits. Luckily…. a self-enforced early night set the clock back a little. To use some project management mumbo-jumbo: lessons learned? Go to be early when it all starts piling up. So what’s been going off? Well, the event with Boots visiting seemed to go well. The staff turned up with crates of stock and covered five large tables with products. The Chams massive chatted and […]

“In a rush hour of another day”

Uncategorized

Hi, At the time of writing – well to be more accurate, at the time of thinking about writing, I’m sat here looking at the Blogger window sifting through the rush of the last week. It’s been busy, but not in a bad way. That busy you get when lots of stuff gets done. Loose ends get tied off, projects come to fruition and, if you’re lucky, what you’ve done makes a little bit of difference to someone. That’s pretty much is this week. I’ve been flat out at work and enjoying it. Not that lose yourself in work stress-out that goes on. Moreover, getting stuck in because I’m enjoying it. Unless I have to, I don’t work outside of […]

“Reasons to be cheerful.”

Uncategorized

Hi, How’s it going? Here on Planet Jones it’s been a bit mixed. Well, mixed up perhaps. A strange sort of drift through good things and not so good stuff, all with that old devil, tiredness. Let’s get the good stuff going because – and let’s face it – that’s the things that keep it all worth while. I’m feeling a lot better than I did at the start of the week. I think a good long kip and a night out with the girls (okay, t-girls) has helped. That and getting on top (Ed: oo-er!) of a work project that’s been bugging me for a while. With Little Miss stopping with Granny, it meant I didn’t have to get […]

“Safely back where you belong,
And see how our love has grown”

Uncategorized

Hey all, Good week? Mine’s not been bad thanks. This time around – and at the risk of sounding like a cod reference to Jesse’s Diets – this week I have mostly been a single parent. Now, don’t panic I don’t mean that in a I-ticked-Mrs-J-off-and-now-she’s-left-me kinda way. That would be bad. No, moreover that the Ever Lovely Mrs Jones was called away on business. A whole week without her. 🙁 Understandably, the kids and I have missed her, so the weekend can’t come quickly enough as she’s back on Saturday. Somehow the house is still standing and none of us have starved. I guess that’s one advantage to the old trans powers; I may not be able to double […]
