So I don’t get to pull a face then?

I imagine Lig just means some sort of record of what we were all doing on that particular day. Like the thing they did a few months back where people blogged everything they did in a single day so that social historians of the future would have an idea of what life was like in 2006.

What do you mean by ‘snapshot’? I’ve recently acquired a Polaroid but I’m not sure if it works.

We need to keep a yearly snapshot of where everyone is, what they’re doing, whether they’re with someone, etc. so in years to come we can all look back and reminisce.

It might be interesting in a 7-Up/49-Up way.

I propose James’ birthday also be our snapshot day, unless he feels that’s taking attention away from him, in which case it should be two days after.

Well it’d be great to see you if you can make it down! It’s my birthday on the 15th of December, which happens to fall on a Friday this year, and I’m sure that we’ll be doing something involving a modicum of alcohol in the evening so maybe that’s something to aim for?

I don’t currently have any blogs running at the moment, and don’t really contribute to any of my websites lately that much. But I’m more than happy to drop a mail over – but I’ll need your address seeing as I lost it

Again, any of you can email me on the address I mentioned before or alternatively you can mail on my work address which is phaymes@asda.co.uk

The long and short of things is that I’m still in Leeds, currently working as a Tech Specialist/Server Engineer at the ASDA Head Office. Decent money/rewarding but very time consuming and stressful.

I’m on call quite a bit so there’s lots of getting out of bed and going in to work at 3am because some strange guy at WalMart panics about servers crashing in the night etc The real downside of this though is that it can be very difficult to travel anywhere and plan ahead as I can’t go anywhere outside of a 12 mile radius of Leeds when I am on call.

Being as I work as part of an international team with WalMart I do occasionally get sent places like Arkansas… lovely. Although there is talk of me heading over to China for a few weeks to help set up the IT Infrastructure of a company we just bought over there. That’d be cool if it comes about.

If you let me know the details of when you guys are meeting up and what you are doing in Worcs I’ll see if I can get over providing I can wing the on call rota in my favour and also get there

Blimey, are you managing to post from over there, J? Int technology brilliant. How’s it going?

And hi, Phill! Good to hear from you. Yes, come visit us, as the man says.

Thank you Mr Phil! Glad you found me OK. I think the blame for bad contact falls on both of us. Do you have a site or can you put together an e-mail for me – I’d love to know what you’ve been up to. My phone has locked on to Thai and Cambodian mobile networks but I get the feeling I’d have to pay stupid money to receive calls let alone make them! Is there any way you can be in Worcestershire for a few days in early December?
