The lesser mabinogion
From the monthly archives: April 2004
Ok, where were we?…that’s right…
Monday
Monday started with “What’s your Game Plan? Marketing yourself and your writing” with Robert Stephenson, Garth Nix and Kaaren Sutcliffe.
Tessa was minding the CSFG stall in the traders room, so I went to this one under strict instructions to memorise everything. Of that, there were [...]
For a far more thorough report, you’ll want to look at Tessa’s report, but I will endeavour to cover the two days I was there…
First up, I think I should actually describe the event, as it appears from reading a couple of articles in the media that the world at large either has [...]
Conflux was on this weekend, and Tessa came up for it….
I picked her up from the airport first thing on Friday morning, and we then went straight to the movies to see Kill Bill 2 – which definitely lived up to the expectations set by the first one. It includes what I think [...]
Well, Easter has come and gone….and so has George. I can drink my tea in peace, safe in the knowledge that a cat isn’t going to shove its nose in it the moment I set down the cup.
I’m not sure that it’s likely that I will get a cat….I think I’ve figured out, [...]
I’ve been re reading Lord of the Rings now that all the movies have been and gone, and the books weren’t going to ruin my enjoyment of them.
It’s probably been 15 years since I last read them – I did make an attempt about 7 or 8 years ago, but for some reason [...]

Yes it’s a rather odd name for a cat, but that’s a different story ;)
Anyway, George is still a fairly young cat, and has yet to have learnt from the book of Garfield. To George, eating and sleeping are mere distractions [...]
Well, I’m sitting in my hotel room, with a copy of Underworld lent to me so that I’d have something to do…and I discover that I never installed any DVD playing software on my laptop.
Bugger.
I thought I had…but either I must have uninstalled it…or I’ve had to reinstall Windows since then.
Oh well…watched [...]
I’ve been spending most of my time over the last week or so trying to get my new server up and running. There’s so many little things here and there to do, it seems like it’s going to take forever.
However, this is what I have currently managed to do:
* Install postfix and [...]
Well, apparently we just had a client ask us to make sure write access was enabled on the CDs we burnt for them.
It seems that the database software they use requires that files they upload to it be write enabled.
I figure we should have told them to use a hole punch [...]
