on the nightshift...
The week's zoomed by - well, kind of!
I've had to make an appointment with the doctor's because of some rather unpleasant back and chest pains; the earliest they could fit me in is next Wednesday, by which time I bet my twinges will have gone away!
Not much else to report, really; I'm on night shifts over the weekend (which is why I'm writing this at some odd time of night!) and then a week of interesting delights, including a random day trip to Stockholm that Beth organised as a surprise for me! and attendance of the Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players gig in London. Oh, and a doctor's appointment!
Maybe... if the mood takes me, I might have a play with this whole Ajax thing. It's all rage, y'know - a more 'interactive' way to access websites. A fine example is Google Suggest. There's a really handy tutorial at the .net website that I'll probably have a play with.
Yet again, Apple have created a wonderful piece of art - the iPod nano is remarkably small and - as ever - I'd love one!
