If silence is golden, this is probably leaden.

I try not to moan too much about work here - though I could easily fill in for Vets behaving badly my new favourite blog - but at some point in the future, there will be an entry devoted solely to moaning about the PDSA. Consider yourself warned.

For now I will just complain about the BBC airing every single show I might want to watch at a time when I'm neither at home nor at work but actively commuting between the two. They do it on purpose, I'm sure.
At least I don't have to fiddle with a proxy to use iplayer. Still haven't seen the latest Sherlock though. Because I ... just haven't tried watching it. Bad fan. Bad.

And I'm idly thinking about buying a new computer. Not that my Laptop-as-Desktop isn't working any more, it is just getting a bit old. And while I have the MBA, it just doesn't feel right as my main computer. Can't stand having my main machine running mostly OS X for one.
Hmm. Time to hit the bookmarks for the custom mini pc websites...

I recommend a hard disk recorder. If you have satelite tv, there're receivers with hard disk recorder inside as well. Ours is recording stuff all the time, we rarely if ever watch something when it's aired. So we can watch it when we like and we can fast forward the ads :o) And afterwards just delete it again...

I haven't seen the new Sherlock either, because I was too lazy to look for downloads yet...

See, I'm trying to find a way for my media center pc to record things on the NAS. But it will always fail, because I usually forget to turn it on. Oops.
And I rarely realize things were on TV until after my dwcircle has started talking about them. By that point, I might just as well download or iplayer them :)

Oh, sorry! Ich war bei den Eltern, habe mir den Kalender geschnappt und mich sehr gefreut und er hängt jetzt hier über dem Sofa. Ich hab' nur Weihnachten dieses Jahr ziemlich total ignoriert und damit auch total vergessen, dass es vielleicht sehr nett wäre mich zu bedanken. Wah. Sorry!

And golf course dog was dead, but owners appropriately grateful for unsere Mühen.
