Well the day was fantastic, the weather came great on the day and everything went smoothly.

Sal recovered well from the food poisoning that kept her up all of Sunday morning and Ciaran remembered the rings.

We've been trying to put photos up but have been hampered by substandard computer equipment (and now by the fact that all of our guests have left us and taken most of the photos with them!). We promise we'll put something up as soon as we get home on 9th March.

Off to Melbourne now for a week in a posh hotel!

(edit :- first few photos now added)

I think I must be trying to get my self ready for the change in time zones already.
It's nearly 3.10am and I'm still up working on my wedding speech. I've got to be up again in less than 5hrs time to get ready to head off.

Or of course I'm just getting nervous about the flights out or the wedding itself.

Just can't wait to get going now !!

My new Radeon X1950XTX has arrived.

Just had to order a new graphics card for my PC as the old one started to fail whenever I ran up an 3d heavy games. The reason I'm unhappy is because it looks to me like it failed due to incorrect fitting by a company that I used to do some work on the box about 8 months ago.
Last time the power supply went, taking the main board with it. Not willing to pay HP over £200 for a new main board to fit in the current case I just got a local PC repair company to replace the case, main board, power supply and transfer all of the other Pc components over onto the new case.
Only now have I realised that when they fitted the graphics card they blocked off it's ventilation. So it looks like it's finally over heated.

I've just added some of the photos that Sal took while on her day out. Login with the username & password and then you'll be able to see them in ... the Wedding photos section

I've now settled into my new role with the departments Collaborative Tools Unit. It's been quite a change but I'm enjoying it so far.

Also I've now seen sense and decided not to try and run the London marathon as it's far too close to the wedding and various wedding party dates. More important things to enjoy so I'll just have to enter through the ballet again next year.

I may be on the move out of the departments Applications & Desktop team and into the Mail team.

I've been offered a 2 year secondment into the University's Mail team to assist with the role out of the Lotus Notes collabrative tools set, as well as providing on going support for our GroupWise and Squirrel Mail services.

I'm not getting too excited yet though as I was offered a similar secondment 4 years ago but it never came off. The main problem at the moment is finding someone to take over my Assistive Software responsibilities. So I'm just going to have to wait and see what happens this time.
