Fingers crossed for you, Blade!


I've done about 10 minutes worth of work today because my laptop had a software diarrhoea session and has well and truly shat itself! Yippee. Days never go as quick as when you cant do anything.

I quite like the scans weirdly, just hope the results are positive.

I got my laptop back. Teams decided it wanted to rule my laptop but IT put it in its place.

Now I'm going through the manufactures website checking for firmware updates and trying to get my Spaceball working.

On the bright side, I'm firmly into happy hour.

Early morning start, 3.30am alarm.

Final health and temp checks in 5 mins then off to the airport for a 2.5 hr helicopter ride direct to the platform from Darwin.
This has been the longest work commute ever!!!

2.5 hours on a helicopter would get old really fast. I know you're used to it, but it doesn't appeal to me that much.
How many passengers are on one of those things you fly in??

I might be doing an exam on SolidWorks to gain a qualification. I've been using it 2 weeks so I'm doing some practice questions. I don't know the software well but I know CAD quite well.

I'm also getting used to a new SpaceBall and CADmouse (the latter is incredibly good!)

Haha they're the best!!

None of our Spaniels will bite but we've always played with them getting them mega excited and trying to put our hands or arms in their mouth. They retract so quick. We're glad we did this with them as it makes them so gentle and safer for when we have little Cavs.

Bella was very aggressive with her play when we first had her. So I've built it up from very short play sessions with no contact. The moment she got aggressive I stopped. She's a fast learner. She's more than happy now for me to put my hands in her mouth to take a ball out when she's playing.

Having a good day pain wise so cracking on in the garden with the nice weather.

Mowed the lawn (weirdly I like this, wonder if its cos its a Honda) jet washed the patio and hard standing areas, brushed the swing seat with jeyes fluid and noe stopped for lunch.

Going to finish some jet washing, seed and feed the lawn and then promised the kids a bike ride down the woods and river as beautiful day here (lol)

After that might see what we have that we can barbecue as very nice sat in the sun.
