Oct. 6th, 2009 03:40 pmWork's busy and I'm not here tomorrow because I'm going to old school friend's funeral :-( So I haven't caught up with my flist/reading page, but hope to manage to do so somewhen.
We had our first rain for what feels like a while today, although it's cleared up somewhat now, and remains surprisingly warm. Our office move has been pushed back to 'the end of the month', or possibly November. Was over at The New Accommodation for a meeting just now, and saw that the desks were being built and cables were being routed, so it's looking like the logistics are being sorted.
However, we've still got to weed out the current office, which isn't a task that particularly fills any of us with glee. At least the drift towards online documentation means that some of the manuals can be junked without a second thought (the one I picked up this morning was dated 1991 - that's eighteen years ago).

Date: 2009-10-09 07:38 am (UTC)First memory of you was you drawing an imaginary map of North Africa and Spain on the wall outside a lecture theatre, explaining to someone (I think it was A.) about where Gibraltar was... or some such. This wasn't the first time we met, I obviously knew you at that point, but it's my first genuine recollection...
