The men came today and took all of our stuff away in a truck; this came after a week of packing, saying goodbye to people and generally not having enough time to get everything done. I drove to Upton in our little old Renult with all of the computers in the back and Cathie went to her Mum’s house in Bristol with Eden and Mo; she’ll turn up tomorrow when the men are gone and I’ve put the kids beds up, etc.
Like any self respecting techie the first things I did were:
- Put on some music
- Get beer & chips
- Get ADSL working
- Drink beer and clean the chip grease from laptop keyboard
- Get wireless working
- Drink more beer
- Unpack primary computer and get external access
- Beer etc
- Get other machines working
- Get bored and distracted by something online
Cathie and I had a party a week ago that was *fantastic*. We invited a lot of friends and past colleagues to an event that Kurt – who is the Creative Director at Fresh01 – DJ’d along with his mate Nick who between them put a night on every Wednesday called Club Hemishpere.
It was a gret party, like having a wedding but none of the stress and expense; a big mix of our friends and whisper, no kids.
