Saxondale - how good is that program? I’ve only managed to catch the last couple of weeks of this series but it is gooooood. Last week I was spooked by one of his mannerisms as I thought “oh I forgotten he did that” and then “or is it him that does that or xxxxxx?” He is astoundingly like someone I work with.

This week I was just inordinately pleased to hear chunks of Argus by Wishbone Ash being played throughout the program. 70’s classic rock - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hg6zqejXvqI

Actually my monitors are the other way round - surely Real Player isn’t only working on my secondary monitor? I’ll investigate further.

She has been working long hours so there is some excuse for still working on it the evening before it was to be presented at a breakfast meeting. However, as she was stressy, tired and ill and I was also was tired (I’ve not been working long hours, just watching too much Heroes catch up) so we started rowing before we even got load it on my laptop. I was keen to show her how the laptop worked, she had better things to do and “you just click a button”. Eventually we did load it - via a USB key as she a) hadn’t bothered to put it on a shared area of the drive and b) had nicked the network cable to copy music onto the PC she’s taking to uni.
