Well all the bits for the beast are now here and I have started assembling it. I have not made my mind up whether I should install Windows Vista (Premium) or stick with tried and tested XP. The graphic card I have purcgased is a new 8800 card and the drivers for Vista are still a bit iffy, so I shall probably wait until Service Pack 1 for Vista arrives and then install it. Aside from the new computer build I have also taken down she who must be obeyed's website. The reason for this is that she and her partner have a whole raft of new stuff so I have put up a temporary site until I have decided on the layout and content of the new site. I have enrolled on a Dreamweaver and Flash course for this and hopefully by the time I have finished, their new site will look vaguely professional. The temporary web site is at www.temparia.co.uk and I would like any thoughts on it's layout etc. Any comments good or bad will be greatly appreciated. All this is of course has left me little time for anything else, but I did have good news this week. I had a 3 month blood check and my glucose control is excellent (the doctor's words!!) my cholestrol is 4.8 (should be less than 5) and finally, I have dropped below the 14 Stone mark (been stalled thre for a while now). The only bad bit was that he advised me to keep off the alcohol for another 6 months (a year with no beer!!!!!!!) this was purely for dietary and sugar control reasons and not becuase he thought I was an alcoholic.

Well toodle pip until next time.
