Comments

I don’t know if it was affecting anyone, but it came to my attention that the old problem with writing comments in IE had reared its ugly head again. I suspect that it happened when I upgraded WP a couple of weeks back, and I just didn’t notice as I never use IE if I can help it.

Anyway, it’s fixed again now, and this time I’ll try and make sure I copy the updated file to all my locations I might edit from again.

Honest.

Somewhat Lacking

   Posted by: lyle    in General, Work-related

Posts may be a bit slack over the next couple of days, as I’ve got the following events/work going on…

  • Normal work developing a whole demo site. Involving :
    • Demo Pages
    • Graphic mock-ups
    • redoing everything into XHTML/ CSS/ standards compliant stuff
    • fixing bits of the old site
  • Development of three other sites, of which only one is actually anywhere near even a concept yet
  • Organising stuff for charity fete on Saturday
  • Sorting out other stuff for :
    • Father’s birthday
    • God-daughter’s christening
    • Anniversary – and there’s a mini-rant coming about Interflora on that subject
    • Holiday dates – having changed jobs I’ve got to get them resorted
    • at least one other thing I’m sure I’ve forgotten
  • Press stuff etc. for the charity
  • Nagging other committee members about stuff that needs doing
  • Gym / Bike work
  • Sorting out a budget and organising myself a bit better
  • Probably a bundle of other stuff that my mind is doing trauma-erausre on for the moment

Hope that explains the silence a bit…

Geoff Thomas

   Posted by: lyle    in Health, News, Thoughts

Two years ago, Geoff Thomas (apparently a former football player, but *shrug*) was diagnosed with leukemia. This year, he’s following the example of Lance Armstrong, himself a survivor of testicular cancer, and riding the Tour De France. Not at the same time as the other riders, but a couple of days in advance.

Quite remarkable, and well worth sponsoring.

Congratulations to Skytower and Kirsty, who got engaged over the weekend. The wedding won’t be ’til at least 2007, but still, many congrats, and well done. About bleedin’ time!
