First Do No Harm, Second Tell No Lies

My thoughts and things. Parts of my life, memes, fun things and perhaps some insights. Mainly just a place for me to note things down that I feel other may be improved by sharing them.

Shredder

I bought a small manual paper shredder today, obviously for destroying those sensitive bits of pulp. While I don't have anything to shred right now (mountain of paperwork) I toyed with the idea of the irony of testing the shredder by shredding the instructions. Why is this interesting? It isn't, but I thought it was funny.

CityLink and stuff

They appear to be useless. Two numbers listed have been changed - even the ones on their own website! An 0870 number is now 020 8768 4024 and the Beckenham number is now 020 8659 9743. But at least there was someone there. GAH. I'm not sure why I'm putting this here...

It's a nice if warm and muggy day in London. Looking like more hosepipe bans ahead, which doesn't bother me much as I don't have a garden.

Only one more week of modules to go for my degree! Each 8 week module has been worth 15 points. Module points make up 120 points of my degree, with a total requirement of 180. The rest of the degree is 60 points of project work and dissertation. So far my grades have been 'B' for all the modules (which are provisional grades until graduation) which if I keep it up I think I should get a 2.1 which I'd be very happy with, though just passing would be OK.

D(on't) NS

Today I had an annoying time when getting home. Network name lookups intermittently failed, meaning browsing would get some bits but not others. Gah. Time to switch provider perhaps.

Well after about 10 minutes I found my own Googlewhack.

Though I'm not sure about the first word and also by posting this I most likely will break it. But hey, that's not the point.
