Quick note on these PowerLine devices.

They don't need any tools to manage them, as they have a sufficient web interface.

BUT - these devices are terrible network citizens.

The following script outputs the percentage of each ink tank from an Epson XP-312 313 or 315 series WiFi enabled printer.

The output looks like

K:96 C:80 M:12 Y:34

which is perfect for feeding into Cacti or other monitoring systems. Guess I'd best go get some magenta ink !

If I'd have given up 4 years ago, then my family tree would have been left looking like this....however by never giving up searching, this week I have made contact with a relative in America. We found 1 joint relative and between our knowledge figured out that we were related. He has given me over 20 more directly related family names & story that need adding to this wall.

Thought it was time I gave you all another update, yes as the title says I am really enjoying my life at the moment.Why?

What an amazing week - I deliberately left it until Sunday to write this since I knew this weekend would be awesome.
 

What a week, I need to take a breath before I write this one up.......
Monday was awesome, not only did I write the Workshop manual for my event on August 15th, Invoicing and cash collection workshop I also prepared for my first Barnswood Scout Camp committee meeting as Treasurer. We had masses to discuss, it ran quite late, but for a first meeting I was very proud of how it went. I just need to send round some more documents (no don't groan please guys)!!

So as you've probably realised the Yoga updates have stopped happening, my apologies for that, however since I am working hard to to make my company Rachael Chiverton Ltd a success I hope you will forgive this slight overlook.

Well OK, calling it week 1 might be a bit much since I actually started the week on Tuesday, but as I said in my first blog I am going to write a weekly report, so here goes.
Since it is the first week, I get Saturday & Sunday off, so my week does actually finish today.  I've progressed from learning the stretches & moves to putting them together in a 30 minute workout.  Lessons I've learnt;

Now I'm working for myself, I don't get the hours walk each day, or the exercise of carrying bags to & from Manchester. During a conversation in Edinburgh last week, someone recommended I look up YRG Yoga. 
I've just done my first workout & loved it. Yes it was challenging, yes I was shaking but that is good (apparently). I am going to try & keep this up, so I use all m muscle each time I do it, have a workout to stick to & hopefully gain some core strength as well as better muscle control as the session go along. I have to try this out.

It's valentines night & once again we're dog sitting so my parents can see Olive HAPPY BIRTHDAY OLIVE (my niece their granddaughter) on her birthday, so how to make it special?
As payment for the dog sitting, Dad provides the wine. So a nice red & home cooked roast, since I'm here to cook it, I thought, or so was the plan!
