Ooooh! 3 posts in one day...

We have decided that Karla is officially very trendy...

At 1.30 last Friday a new virus was discovered, and at 2.30 Karla just had to have it. So new they hadn't even named it ... It only took a rebuild to fix- c'est la vie!

And yet another new Face...

The artist known as Neil has come on board as a coder, taking up some of the slack from Keiran (in particular) and myself (the old git). He's only been here for a few weeks but is picking up our methodologies really well.

There's a new kid in town...

We have a new business development person in the shape of Emma Williams. Emma has had a broad experience in business development, but hasn't worked in our field before - so we've bombarded her with information over the last month. She seems to be handling it well and is coming very quickly up to speed.

Watch this space...

Change in the air...

Well, we survived the first week without Lynne, who has gone on to bigger and better things at Johnston Carmichael's marketing department. Definitely a quiet place without her

Maaj is still on secondment for her professional quals, and is going travelling for a few months next year, after her stint with GE is finished.

However, 'plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose' and we are re-organising to accommodate our new team members -names to follow soon.

watch out for the new site..

We realised that, one problem with keeping prices constant for 4 years is that we haven't been pushed to change the site. However, with a number of small changes happening at the moment, we will have to address the new site.

This on top of everthing else that's going on work-wise - ah well....

Ain't work great....

Hmmm... maybe not. I seem to be suffering from the January blues. I've been back to work for just days, and I feel like another holiday.

Question... can I get another job in a sunny climate?

Offers, on a postcard, to Dave @ Rocket Print

chinese curse...?

The one I'm thinking on is 'may you live in interesting times' .

We've just spent a bomb on upgrading servers, new gear in the form of workstations and screens, tablets etc. So what happens?

We've just had a couple of weeks of technology problems. Super duper (hideously)expensive printer decides to throw a wobbly, our new servers didn't want to talk to each other and lastly, our broadband went down with the outage last weekend that hit 500 or so companies all over the UK. So we reconfigured our router, then discovered that the local area workgroups (3 of them) had also lost their settings. Ahh the joys..

All fixed now however, and no clients affected.... but we are looking at a dedicated leased line...
