Congrats to 20th and Josh! I'll try to get these later and I'll let you know what I think. Even if you don't want me toJoshawott said:

Well Kite, hope things get better for you. Hang in there!Kite said:I'm lonely tonight
Haven't felt this bad since between Christmas and new year.
Its been a crap week at work where I found out I have no natural 'next-step' due to my boss not being replaced. Being expected to remember stuff from something I haven't done since October 10 (where a lot of it has changed). I will hold out until the new account manager arrives in May before looking for another job unless she changes things around. But I can't complain as least I've got a job (until they decide to make my post not exist anymore)

I was in town today and had a quick play with a S4300 (same camera as the 4500, but with a smaller lense)
It felt plasticly and like it would smash into a hundred pieces if subjected to a small fall to the ground, also I couldn't get the auto-focus to work at all [where a couple others were working fine and dandy against a display].
So I kinda purchased a Samsung WB150F as it felt good in my hands, the zoomage/focus was working rather well [and doing a quick search found it had good reviews] Managed to get it for £99 with an extended warranty for an extra £10 [managed to get £15 knocked off it], I know I could have got it for a bit cheaper online, but if things go wrong I'm covered more with Currys than some random online site selling grey-imports.
Just need to find another battery, as it's one of those rather stupid rechargeable ones [great, until it runs out at a camp-site with limited mains power to recharge it]

...yup. I'm now officially the office post boy, which is really hard when I can't remember anyone's names.ilmaestro said:
Today I had to chase down a whole clinic's worth of files because the consultant thought it would be a great idea to take them from storage without checking them out of the system too.

I think I've had more bad luck in the last 20 minutes than I have both this and last year combined.
First my PS3 controller started to die and randomly spazzes around when I move the left stick to the left/upper left, also registering as D-Pad input for some reason.
Next, the back of my chair broke (Okay, It WAS a £5 office chair from the charity shop) and just to top it off I made a sarcastic comment "I bet the HDD will fail now" (Seeing as Okami was at 94%). Thankfully that didn't happen, instead, barely a minute later the PS3 decided to freeze (As it's been doing a lot lately) loosing about an hour of gameplay AND causing me to have to re-download Okami, which takes a few hours @ 1mb/s.
It's been over a year since I last really played games. Maybe this is a sign?

I know this feeling. I started my new job recently and at first next to nothing worked.Joshawott said:

I don't think it's that, since the 4.40 update it's been weird. The game update issue is apparently a Virgin Media issue, but I'm still frequently experiencing Crashes (Some of which happen when doing something simple like checking Trophies) and occasionally no sound over HDMI when I turn the console on. The controller issue is just that - a controller issue, it does the same on other PS3s.Tachi said:
Saying all this I did turn my console on the other day to find I had blue dots all over the screen. I'd dismissed it as a one off though as it's been fine since I restarted it again.
Hopefully it'll be fine for when KH ReMix turns up. I have that and Metal Gear Rising to play after XIII-2 when I can get the sodding update for it to work.
