Finished the Move

10th August 2004

Just finished moving home a while ago and I’m glad it’s almost over. It’s always quite stressful and deeply tiring sometimes; often there are days when you just want to relax but there’s another box to unpack and flat-pack and discard. Then you hope the garbage guys feel like picking it up ;-) They only picked it up this Saturday after a full week of flat-packed boxes lying there.

We had to buy some cupboards and stuff from Argos, and are currently into our first few days of a Sky Digital subscription. The fact that we can find something to watch most of the time now is still something to get used to. There is always something, maybe Simpsons, Enterprise, X-Files or Frasier or something to watch. Most of the time it’s several things clashing with each other. Let’s see how we cope with that.

In other news, XP SP2 just came out and I’m so glad it finally did. I’m waiting for the version for home users to be release before I upgrade but I am so glad Microsoft is finally fixing it’s mistakes and making XP more and more secure for everybody. Let’s hope this really does fix *most* of the problems that caused viruses and trojans to spread. Time will tell.
