Home at last… I can tell you it has been hot outside. I was drinking LOTS of liquid this afternoon – I just kept filling a used 600 ml coke container with water and pretty soon it would be empty. The main problem was lack of airflow rather than great heat. I ended up doing six hours cabling today… Terminating Cat5 and TV sockets, testing them and making sure they all worked. Half the hassle was finding them.

At one stage I was searching for a cable – and checked east of the 12 or so locations in the house it could have terminated in. No… Didnt work. Try on one of the other wires. No. Try again, just in case I am too dumb to get it right. No luck. Think for a moment… Where could it be… How about behind the door in the same room as the other end of the cable… That is it… Found it! Probably 10-15 minutes wasted by me being dumb.

Still, this was not as dumb as the sign I saw today… It said ‘Rego Cheacks’.
