Re: General Stuff(tm)

Apparently the post-person failed to deliver any post today as no-one was on our reception at five past two this afternoon. *sigh* P.S. Well, well. The receptionist says that she was at her desk at 2:05pm and was there without a break since 1:40pm. she's going to have stern words with the postie on ...

Re: Neo Geo - Of the Pocket variety

I was going to say that the screen looked nice and crisp. Obviously that's due to your lighting conditions.

Re: Stuff and Things.

Yeah, seems like it's lost its capacitance a bit. :-)

I have loads and loads of capacitors... mostly due to the one I need always being one I don't have. Either the capacitance is wrong or the voltage or the size.

Yeah. The TexElec pads are in the UK now so are stuck in customs purgatory for the next few days.

Re: General Stuff(tm)

Well, I couldn't get any contractors to turn up next week, they all seem to be going on holiday, so I've cancelled my trip and my leave. There's no point taking time off if I need to use it later in the year.

Still, it means that I'll be around for the deliveries.

Re: General Stuff(tm)

Yeah. I'm trying to get maintenance done by contractors, so need to see them to get quotes etc.

It's all external so I should need to be there when they do the work.

Re: General Stuff(tm)

Looks like both the TexElec foil+foam pads and the adjustable buck converter will be arriving next week.

However, I'll be down in Cornwall next week to deal with work on my Dad's house.
