Yesterday morning I gave the module to Terry who put it in his memory tester and it was pronounced healthy. So I put it in the machine in place of the other one. Result: working machine. Put the other back in: non-working machine. Moved the two memory modules to slots 3 and 4: working again. The machine has now gone back to the supplier with a suspected fault on memory slot 2. But it takes with it a tiny bit of my blood because the side of the case cut my thumb while I was trying to take it off. :-(
Oh yes, the department administrator apparently decided it would be a good idea to have a fire drill at about 1pm on Tuesday, so we all had to stand outside on the coldest day of the year so far. If he'd only waited until the next day he could have made us stand out in the snow, too…
I lost a glove today. Again. The first one seemed to get lost in Cowley Centre in November, and the second one is probably somewhere in the vicinity of Allders. So now when I'm cycling, not only am I wearing non-matching gloves, but I'm wearing the left one backwards. I may need to go to a shop at some point. I am not feeling very rich, having just spent £115 on photographs of some toddler (admittedly a very charming one).
