Fanatics...

[paulw]

I have got my Fanatic grading in one month, two weeks and four days. Does that make me the quickest to get there? On a scale of 1 to 10, how sad does that make me? Oh, and you are limited to TEN, people.

Cheers,

P.

[smh]

A good chunk of those postings were for me...

He He

[barrk]

Not sad at all....just very helpful, caring, charming and all those other things you claim to be! Obviously you were telling the truth...

[barrk]

Didn't mean to give you a big head, Paul. Hope you were able to make it out the door okay.

[Ianpbaker]

katie, your leaving yourself wide open again, but i'm going to resist

[barrk]

You are too kind Ian.

[paulw]

He's not really. I thought everyone would be really excited for me... The overwhelming response has made my head shrink at least two inches

Cheers,

how's life stateside at the moment katie? anything interesting in the avionics world at the moment. in hastings where I live, there's a company that helps makes HUD's for the english MOD. I worked their one summer whilst I was studying, it was very interesting apart from that I was basically a tea boy.

There is nothing new here actually. Work has been going very slowly due to scheduled down-time for modifications. I have just been spending time documenting legacy code...AARRGGHH!!! Brain-numbing stuff.

[Ianpbaker]

tell me about it. I spent my first two week's of mt vurrent contract making a SQL database out of excel spreadsheet's. not the most fun thing int he world to do. But it's advantage is that now i'm doing the front end and I understand the database 100%, it's making my life easier now

[Ianpbaker]

this will make you more happy paul

your the 33rd highest poster at the moment. that's good going as you haven't been on the site that long.

i'm 47th and been around since march of this year

[barrk]

Are your kids feeling better Paul?

[paulw]

33rd today... but tomorrow.... 32nd?

Yep, the kids are much better, thank you. It is a bit worrying when thay are only 14 weeks old and can't keep food down. The doctor said to try milk instead of Steak and Chips...

Cheers,

Well, I was 2 hours late for work this morning because my son was running a temp of 102 last night. He's 10 1/2 months old and this was the first time he's ever been had a fever. He's back to a normal temp of 98 now though.

[Ianpbaker]

that's nice to know that he's feeling better. I haven't got kid's yet, but i'm an honoary uncle of one of my best mates kid. he's 18 months old and I love him to bit's, and every time he's even slightly ill when i'm around I go crazy, god know what i'm going to be like when I have a child of my own

[smh]

I was the exact same way. My sister had a son exactly 9 months to the day before my son was born. I was always so worried if he was sick (he was in an intensive care nursery for a week after he was born ...was only 5 lbs). He had his ups and down for the first couple months. The only thing that isn't quite normal about him now is that he is allergic to anything with milk in it. They said that could have been a side effect of being born early. My son was also a month early, but he's perfectly fine. He never went into the ICN and has never been sick until last night.

[barrk]

Glad to hear that the kids are doing better! Yours too smh! There's nothing better than being a parent....even when the kids aren't feeling well.
