So where have I been?

For the better part of the past 2 years I've mostly been involved in a custom dev solution for one of the major banks... I started out during the initial analysis phase as a dev on the project, then our Team Lead left and I had to fill that gap. The team changed quite a bit, and while we were busy...

(Re) Installation stories

After delaying it for as long as I could, I've decided to reinstall my laptop, again. It all started when I began to notice that general slowness, firstly builds ran slower, VS got sluggish, and then it spread to the rest of the machine... all of that I could have dealt with for a while, but then the...

Snow in Joburg!!!!

I just stood in SNOW for the first time in my life!!! In Woodmead, Joburg! Very very small flakes, but it was snow! Apparently the last time it snowed in Johannesburg was in 1981! I hope the snowflakes become bigger, then I am going home!

Energy burned/day

Ever since I got my Polar watch I wanted to wear it for a whole day to see how much energy I use at work. Haha, didn't expect much as the only time I get up from my seat is for a smoke break. So today I finally got around to it. I started when I left home this morning (7h30) and stopped when I pulled...

Life Update #1

Well, to be honest - at the moment I don't have a clue what is going on in the rest of the world, not even the blogging world. Big reason for that is my sister, Rita-Mari and my nephews that visited me for 2 weeks. The kids ran around from 6 o'clock in the morning till about 10 at night! I have never...

I'm back :P

I have decided to break my blogging absence with a completely non-technical post. You should be glad that I didn’t try to post anything technical as it would have been about analysing and fixing old VB6 and ASP applications, or spending my weekend at IS rebuilding Windows 2000 Servers. Doing that 8 hours...

Jo'burg Radio Stations???

As most of you know by now, Armand and I moved to Jo'burg. Yes, at last we gave in and left our little boere town and came to the big city (no, that is not how I see it, but most Jo'burgers view ;-) ) I will miss Pretoria, but a change was definitely necessary - I lived in one place for way too long...

Drakensberge here we come!

We are almost on our way to the Drakensberg with some of our friends. They are there already, and as usual we are the ones that have work to finish, Armand is working his arse off to finish something :) But soon I'll be lying in the sun drinking some [insert any drink here] next to the pool!!! Hmm.....

Warped Tour AND PDC???

Armand and I are planning to go to the Van's Warped Tour next year, and today I realized that the dates are very close to PDC !!! So hopefully if everything works out, next year this time we’ll be attending both... :D I’m already so excited; I just had to share it!

At home :)

Yeah! The company I work at had a power failure so we were able to go home early!!! And I only got there at 9... The best is Armand works a block from me, so now both of us are sitting at home and I have time to blog a bit. Yesterday we found a bug in our system where when a user refreshes the page the...
