To begin, spend at least a week creating documentation for a procedure to install a complex messaging solution based on Microsoft Exchange 2010. Don’t bother saving it to a server or somewhere that’s backed up – it’s still just a work in progress. Save it to a nice folder on your computer desktop instead.
A reason to blog!
Last year, using Google Plus, I saw quite a few profile pictures were drawings, done in a particular style, that I now know to be “Sugar Skull”. I loved the style, and thought they were very cool and unique – I wondered if there was a program out there people were using or something, like… Continue reading A reason to blog!
Netdom on Windows Server 2008 R2
Yay, it’s time for another technical post! I manage and am responsible for Active Directory for a number of customers, both public and private sector. Rather than searching my documentation to find the FSMO role holders, it’s easier to log on to a server and run “netdom query fsmo” in a command prompt.

Another of my time leeches bit the dust this morning. After a little bit of hoop jumping (sooooo much less than with FaceBook), I managed to deactivate my Twitter account.

Pimping my sh*t! :)
Just wanted to spread the word as far as possible that I’ve got a couple of items on eBay that I’d like to sell.
Dog walks
Went on a really nice dog walk this afternoon, just before sunset. I enjoy taking the dog at this time – I get some really awesome colours on pictures of the sunset. The header picture on this website at the time of writing is a crop from one of my pictures. Taken with an iPhone… Continue reading Dog walks
Apple iPad Mini
It probably escaped many people’s notice, but last Friday was launch day for the iPad Mini, and iPad 4th Generation. The release of the 4th Generation iPad made me a little fed up, as my 7 month old device became obsolete, but not as unhappy as a colleague who had only purchased his 3rd generation… Continue reading Apple iPad Mini
