I get to use my Amigas (I was gonna say turn the girlfriend on but...;-)) when the kids are in bed*.

I have three, one of which is 20 weeks old (children that is, not amigas ! I have two of those set up),
and therefore a lot of work !

I have a week off, as soon as call-out duties are complete tomorrow, but I can pretty well guarantee the amount of time spent on the amiga will be about the same as ever !

*the way it usually happens is this: I get online (having a real PITA with abelinternet not recognising passwords for the first handful of dialin attempts  :pissed: ), I will just be starting to filter me spam out before downloading the authentic (ie jokes from me mon!)emails, and I'll get yelled by the Missus who wants either a cuppa (cos shes feeding the litl'un fair play) or she wants to discuss furniture :roll:  or shes moaning I never spend time with her.
although, the last 3 nights, we did
1) watch half of Lord Of The Rings together,
2) watch Paul Merton discussing silent screen comedy heroes
3) watch t'other half of LOTR.
I have been (on and off) trying to figure out how to get Spirantho's AmiTV to work on Update 4, but thats like looking for a bit of hay in a massive stack of needles,
but the last week has seen me trying to get near the A1 to try and repair a non-X'ing linux system after I got a /home space riddled with knackered files in the fs or somesuch.

ho hum !

at least the weather is turning crappy now I'm off!
