Not so quiet as expected


It’s been yet another busy but satisfying day at the yard. I don’t know why I thought it would be quiet…

/blur

What we’ve done:

1) Walked down into Poynton, got my prescription made up, did a fair bit of shopping and Sheila got a hair cut.
2) Caught the bus back.
3) Had lunch.
4) Sheila washed the roof whilst I used some newly acquired Ronseal Woodcoat to repaint the shafts and gang plank.
5) I (hopefully) sorted a backup problem with the Braidbar computers; they have a mixed Mac and Windows environment with a NAS* server in addition, so it’s always a challenge working on their stuff. The problem is you still can’t get a decent accounts or payroll package to run under MacOS.
6) Had an ice cream for tea and did some more painting and IT.
7) In between all this, engaged in some highly constructive nattering.
8) Oh, and my nice new Mac keyboard has arrived – light, smart polished aluminium with white keys and all the right keys in the right places for a Mac.

So, still no photos, I’m afraid – maybe tomorrow…

/wahaha

In addition, we’ll pull out of the yard tomorrow, though we still haven’t decided where we’re going.

*NAS = Network Attached Storage
