New Beginnings

Well it apears that you can take the new beginnings thing to a whole new level, but I have had a couple of calls from senior management today basically saying that there are no routes available to people for transfer, as they would like something to sell ~ but that the door is not completely shut. They also let slip that another announcement is due by the end of this week (which is a lot sooner than was released in the "Black Thursday" announcement.

The chap next door to us has dropped the price of the house (he's been trying to sell it for a year). I still feel pretty good though as its still £100k more than we paid for ours 6 years before.

We are still someway behind the US (particularly the bay area) with our wireless take up. But at least it seems common with that of Europe (well Karlsruhe at least). I think it would be great to be able to hook up anywhere, and following on from the great 43folders podcast to be able to check your mail in the park rather than at your desk is a cool idea.
