Ubuntu CRON weirdness
Hrm, this is odd! I’ve been trying to work out on and off all week why a scheduled daily backup script won’t run on the new Ubuntu web server.
Proper Bo!
Leigh Francis (aka Avid Merrion) was filming outside work last week; looks to be dressed as Keith Lemon (business man of the year 1993)!
Show time!
I’ve been to the Leeds College of Art and Design Fashion Show at the Royal Armouries this afternoon to see what the Fashion students have been up to this year!
It was very good, having it in a professional auditorium with pro sound/lighting etc. definitely upped the ante over having it in the refectory as we did last year. Also, the models were all stunning once again! :)
On the importance of early mornings and Applescript return codes
Well, it’s 6.45am and I’m sat in a deserted college listening to Planet Rock and fixing broken AppleScript - this shit just isn’t funny any more.
If I blog this hopefully it’ll get Googled and possibly save someone else losing a night’s sleep!
