Re: Status Update

 

Hiyas guys,

BAD News... the bitch is back :P

It's a bit of a cobbled together system, using my backup hard drive via a
usb carrier and seems to have problems with the letter H at times. I Will
get through all the emails in the coming days. My thanks go to Gary, one of
my customers for loaning it to me. It is, however prone to over heating,
something I will be investigating over the next few days (No such thing as a
free meal :P)

I'd like to state on the record my appreciation and thanks to my young admin
crew who I knew would be step up to the task in my absence during the dark
times that followed the armed robbery.

If I had a spare computer, it would already be on its way to Jacky, as Jacky
is USA based - I will see what I can do to facilitate a temporary
replacement (I know Derrick had a couple of 'elderly' laptops that may
suffice untill he can get new kit).

And for anyone who does not have my mobile (cell) phone number it is
+447876065860, I'm also on skype as phillwuk that account goes to my mobile
(cell) phone and I ensure that there is credit on my skype account.

My kindest regards to you all,

Phill.
