I work perm nights 19:00 - 07:00, I love it. I only work 2 weeks per month, so it has some perks for me. I end up playing on Fetchfido, all night

actually it's the core network that has 12gb/s to the internet, my office only has 1gb fibre into the core though...

incidentally the 8ft display in front of me reckon the core is 99.97% available...

bored...

4x pints of Harp
1x Belfast car bomb (pint of Guinness, shot of Bailey's and whiskey)
2x shots of Sambuca.

I don't feel well.

Fact! Tequila...it makes me happy, oh oh tequila..

As an aside, I was chatting to Dr Mac Macartney from Green Wing this evening, or Julian as he's otherwise known. Nice chap, bought me a beer thus guaranteeing my eternal friendship.

Anyone that wants to touch meh (through this post, or otherwise generally) form an orderly queue..
