Bryan Adams Still Rocking!
While I was in Turkey my better half suggested we go to see Bryan Adams while he is on tour in the UK this year. We decided to do it and went to see him Tuesday this week. He was much better than I thought he would be and my expectations weren’t low in the first place, rock on Bryan!

80’s Party
Mo (a work colleague) had her 40th birthday bash recently. It was great, the rule was 80’s fashion and 80’s music only. My partner and I spent the day in Felixstowe looking for some gear that I could wear (the women seem easier to sort out than the men for clothes).

I recorded the event on my digital camera but have yet to upload it to my Gallery.

Ubuntu, Streamtuner and VMWare

New Stuff
Recently looked into Stream Tunner which I have to say is superb! Look into it if you get the chance.

Also, I thought I would try to get Windows XP going with Vmware for Linux. Again, worked flawlessly, and am quite impressed with it.

Gossip Transports
Still plodding along with this. Things are going really well at the moment actually. Mikael and I spoke about what will happen over the next few weeks and we will probably merge our branches then and get things cleaned up ready for a new Gossip release.

Fine tuning the wizard last week meant that now people no longer need to wait for a list of servers they can use. It is much more efficient now.

Ubuntu anyone?
I have been trying Ubuntu Linux this last few weeks and I love it! Previously I have used mainly Red Hat and occasionally Mandrake. The best thing about it has to be the eye candy :D
