New Anthem

Thursday, January 29th, 2004

The six nations rugby championships starts shortly, in March the Scotland V France game the SRU will trial a new National anthem for Scotland, this one is called Highland Cathedral I will be quite keen to hear it. You see there are people out there who want to scrap Flower of Scotland as our Anthem. Don’t be so Stupid!!

They say its “melancholy dirge, anti-English and backward-looking” oh fine. BTW, What about the English anthem. uhmm is it the 4th Verse “And like a torrent rush, Rebellious Scots to crush” Sounds anti-Scots to me.

Dust

Monday, January 26th, 2004

Dust is the enemy, over the weekend I notice that the pc was running a tad hot. Also decided to reset itself a few times, Might nice of it aint it. It was running about 60c - 62c For an Athlon I suppose its ok, but I did not like it.

Before I ran out and got a new heat sink, cooling card ect I picked up a can of compressed air, cleaned out the fan, case. the amount of dust, hair n crap inside it its now running at a nice 55c - 56c. hopeful this will help.

Bored

Thursday, January 8th, 2004

I am bored, bored with many things probably my job. I should quit, but the problem is the lack of IT jobs here just now, along with all the graduated and MCSE’s and CCNA’s around makes getting a new job tougher, perhaps a change of career is in order? I need to do something different, alas I shall be here same place same time next year. Maybe.

Took a few shots today, I want to start my photo log again. Yes I have said this several times before however I do mean it this time. I also though about going out and taking a photo every 200 yards or so, just something different.

Looks like my forums are in light use now, two of us are posting thanks, and we have some new members, go post something…. what are you waiting for. :D
