Right, memo to self and also a request. If I mention to someone again that I've reinstalled Windows, can someone remind me to also install the drivers for the extra hardware that came with the thing? d'oh! The reason no games were running (not that this actually bothered me) was because I hadn't installed anything since I rebooted a few months back.

The things you discover when bored. This does mean that, well, Medieval Total War and Warcraft III are now working on this box. Which means that, well, I've got something to do in the evenings when I'm knackered after work.

I have a new landlord. I think it's the bloke I met while he was looking around the place, but I'm not sure. I left the office early today (I'm owed the time anyway), to meet him. Except he's coming around tomorrow. Can't leave early two days in a row. d'oh!

This bloody cold is getting to me now. I'm perfectly coherent, it's not affecting my concentration, I can work fine. Except the sore throat and coughing if I talk for any length of time. What do I spend half my day doing at this time of year? That's right, I talk. Lots. Bugger. Three times I answered the phone today and started coughing during the first sentence. Good job my host families actually like me...

Am in the middle of an apathy attack. Can't be arsed to do much. Ah well.
