Yay

Got my payslip today which indicated that for whatever reason my tax bracket or whatever has changed which equals £60 less tax per month - yay! So I can now get Spore and a replacement UK keyboard for the Inspiron guilt-free as they are both about £30.

Other than that the only things to report were a successful set up of a test backup server in work, which was really good as it clarified an awful lot about how the live one was originally configured, and a nice dog walk in the evening in lovely sunshine for a change.

Finished Ringworld at last. It's a really good book and fun all the way through with some really interesting ideas. Rob says the sequels are worth reading so I'll look into picking them up too.
