Time for another update. I've been extremely busy in work with my new job, so I'm going to blame that for not writing earlier. I've moved into a project job - at least for the time being. This week I provided assurance on a spend of �2.5 million (!).

In terms of FreeBSD, my laptop (Dell Inspiron 1300) is now basically fully up and running. It's on 6.1-STABLE as of 23/6/2006. All the hardware works apart from the sound and modem - neither important for me. I'll blog some howtos on what I did later.

I've also set my Palm Tungsten E to connect to the web. This note is being written with Plogit and I'll upload it later.

My family is OK. Alex is doing well at school, we're preparing for Year 2. Jessica is OK but grumpy. We're using a Handle massage technique to relax her. Early days but it seems to be effective at helping her relax at night. We initially used it on Alex, but stopped some time ago as he seemed to be through that phase. Jessica has real problems going to sleep at night. She can't seem to relax. This massage technique is helping, but she's not there yet - often not going to sleep until 22:00. See you later.

I'm in Blackpool today - not for fun I hasten to add. I started a new job recently & I'm now working with some colleagues in Blackpool. Lots of fun travelling up the M55!
