    A pic of the building in which I work at Cardiff University. The 60’s concrete block internally known as BIOSI2.

    Part 3 of the tour: a bunch of thermal cyclers (including a qPCR cycler) in the BIOSI Gene Park. I know. Dullsville. I’m just enhancing my geek status.

    Freaky. It was the Network Associates (Mcafee) virus scanner that I installed to the webserver that was causing the problems with the webserver. I removed it and all seems well again. Wierd.

    Continuing the tour of my workplace, here’s my lab bench. Exciting, eh? A very productive area. Mostly. Sometimes.

    Sorry about the downtime. My cable modem hung and screwed up the DHCP renew timings for it and the router. I’ve reset both, so hopefully that’s fixed now.

    Here’s a tour of my workplace (day by day). Not very productive in the lab today, eh? I’m off to the doctors to get some drugs and sort out my cough. I’m very impressed that they booked me in the same day. My last surgery had a wait of a week!

    I see from my counter that you lot are back to work too but not particularly inclined to do any…

    I’m back in work after a 2 week Christmas break. I hated leaving Jack (and Kim, of course), but I love my job, so I was also looking forward to getting back to the lab. I got absolutely soaked cycling in. I hope getting pissed on isn’t an indicator of how my 2004 is going…
