Another day off – but not really by choice!
Well this time the day off was forced upon me – woke up Sunday morning to do some phd work only to find my laptop kaput! The laptop not working and a blue screen didn’t alarm me to much, was more my phd work and other data!!! (Yes I know I should backup regularly, but somehow no matter how often I’m told, I do manage to forget.. and well the last back up was about 6 week ago.. )
Thanks to Ronan who talked me thro creating a live ubuntu cd, I got to copy my data off the laptop, so though it is still not working, I’m a happy bunny that I have my last work.
The lesson, backup regularly!!
(btw, when I was doing my FYP my desktop monitor blew, when I was completing my MEng my desktop hard drive went.. perhaps it was inevitable that something like this would happen...! )
Thanks so much to Ronan who saved the day again!!
Otherwise was a good weekend.. some good matches over the weekend - hard luck to Loughrea to lose the hurling club final; St.Marcartans College to lost the McRory Cup (Ulster schools final) by a point in injury time; and of course the Irish rugby team.. But well done to Cross who drew in the football club final and to the Irish criket team!
Going to see ‘A Prairie Home Companion’ tonight in Armagh Film club – anyone see it before?
