Finally got to plug in some of the cables that we have been running in the last couple of days (we as in me and the Lounging lizard) and.. they didn’t work ARGHHHH.. then started to suffer from a killer headache.. I mean BAD so phoned Angel and then went to bed, yes skipped yet another meal

Hit the sack with a MASSIVE headache.. Man it’s killing me.. Hope it goes by tomorrow

So what has happened today? Got a text telling me a client website is not working so had a look and yep it isn’t so had to flag it for someone to have a peek. Actually got some cabling nearly finished today and left the night shift to get the little bits sorted tonight.. Hmm.. Not a lot else to add really.. Most of the day was spent cabling as normal.

Chatted to Angel in the evening and well went to bed.. Night all..Zzzz

So another day doing annoying but essential jobs like putting in cables and terminating them..

Still not able to eat dinner in the evening and started trying to drink more water in the evening.. Feel like crap too.. Most likely the heat though, also the rain in the evening is not helping much.. Hmm

Heard might be asked to stay on an extra week.. Not sure that will happen though have to find out whats going on in the next couple of days.

Possibly because been on here for a couple of weeks but starting to feel the strain.. Sod knows how people can do 6-7 weeks in a row..

Laptops arrived here today with some carts I ordered.. Cool.. Laptops were then sold 1 hour later!!.. Got to have a look at them in the evening though.. might have to get myself one

So spend the whole day rushing around like a nutter with a moody Boss in charge, not sure whats up but at least it kept me out of the way and busy.. However after losing about 2lb’s sweating in the sun it then proceeded to rain and soak me..

And then Angel tells me the Dreambox s knackered..

Oh and it’s my Birthday

Woke up at 4.30am..

Showered..

Eat some food..

Wood like a complete nutter for 12 hours (with a bit of food and tea drinking thrown in for good measure)..

Go to bed after a natter to Angel..

Well what a day started nice and slow then just went mentally fast with us running about throwing stuff together, only to be stopped and told we are going for it.. Opps.. Anyway rushed up did some of that and threw some *product* up the tower and err.. well busy as hell.. hehe

Got into my cabin fired up the Internet and got a couple of charming emails from a guy who was a bit of a pain in the backside about 2 years ago (you know who you are) anyway frankly I had forgotten about it. But as is the way with things smelly and best thrown away it has come back and made me wrinkle my nose in disgust. Seems I am going to be sued for, as he puts it “defamation of character” which he is entitled to however I did a bit of googling and found this gem -

Typically, the elements of a cause of action for defamation include:

1. A false and defamatory statement concerning another;
2. The unprivileged publication of the statement to a third party (that is, somebody other than the person defamed by the statement);
3. If the defamatory matter is of public concern, fault amounting at least to negligence on the part of the publisher; and
4. Damage to the plaintiff.

Anyway that cheered up my evening and got the brain going for about 2 seconds then I had to do a quote (much more fun NOT).

Ended the evening chatting Angel before heading to bed.. Zzzzz

My first real test with only myself and one other was stressful as hell and I actually managed to make a pigs ear of some of it too.. BUT I did not create any major problems and got it there in the end (phew).

Two new guys came on in the afternoon so we are a little more relaxed now and things should be better tomorrow, also I trust one of the other guys as he is one of the best and hardest workers I have ever seen. Should be a right *crack* as he puts it

Again knackered but manage to chat to Angel and waffle about things, stuff etc.. hehe.

Ok so I can lay cable and err make a right mess when it’s being loaded hehe..

All in all a day of high tension and stress.. And another one tomorrow when it is again down to just me and one other guy.. Oh dear..

All in all though I was getting the hang towards the end and felt more comfortable with it, shattered at the end of the day though..

Should point out that right now I’m doing stressful work so my entries might be a bit short

Well today really put me to the test as I had to learn a HELL of a lot in a short time and on the hop too.. Managed ok though and didn’t make myself look a complete plonker.. Well no more than usual anyway.. So for first launch everything went pretty well.. I say 2 more and I will be spot on

Need to dig some more on the other systems on-board and sort out some little issues but all in all if tomorrow works out ok (driving the cable) then I think I should be good to go.. Just a crash course in Hydraulics and some other stuff and I feel I’ll be ok.. Just need to get some more experience then

Feel VERY tired tonight so guess it will be another early night.. Oh and been playing a lot with Windows 7.. Hmm Better than Vista for sure.. Although it still feels a little.. Clunky.. and forced to use.

So yep we are on our way and enjoying the journey (ok I made that bit up) out to field..

Managed to get some TV just about and watched F1 on the laptop YEY!.. Although Jenson only managed 6th But then again the Vettel managed to drive like a demon and showed just how good he is.. Going to be interesting now

Seems got some stuff to do tomorrow.. and I ended up going to bed at a silly 6pm waking up at 7.30pm and then going back to bed at 9pm hehe.. Mad.. Hope I’m sane tomorrow (???)
