Hi folks, I’m back!

It’s been a long time hasn’t it – but I’ve been busy. In fact one of the busy things that’s been bugging me is what I’m using now – the xmlrpc.php plugin for OpenOffice to post these things from my desktop rather than from within the site. (Hopefully it’s working now – otherwise this will be a complete and utter waste of time)

I’ve also been battling with getting Billet to work correctly with a Joomla installation that I’m setting up for the department. All the URLs in the auto-emails were coming back with out a domain – which was pretty useless. It all boiled down to the fact that Joomla 1.5 doesn’t use the live_site variable any more, so I had to hard code that into the configuration.php

Other than that, I’m the proud owner of a new tent and a new camera.The tent is ridiculous – having been up in the garden – weighing next to nothing and easily big enough for me and a rucksack. (Wish they had those around when I used to do the KIMM)

The camera is purely so that I can have something to pop in the pocket – without needing to unzip a camera bag and then fiddle and diddle with various settings like I need to with my “big”(tm) camera. So far, very impressive. See if you can work out which took what from the Flickr photostream.
