Haha, still trying to figure out if anything really does impress her. Cristiano Ronaldo - definitely not.

 She impresses me for a woman 20 years older...I would guess her husband Fred must impress her?  The song is interestingly (or maybe not so) 20 years old this December...

I'm on call this week for work, normally its cushty and call outs are rare but there has been some personnel changes in the US office who monitor our systems and at 01:30 this morning i was woken up by a phone call telling me the whole Swindon site has lost connectivity. I fired up my emails and forward an email which had already been sent to the monitoring team informing them if ISP maintenance between the hours of 10pm and 2am.
Their reply was, Oh, we though that was in July and August. The new guys clearly didn't take into account the date format difference.

What annoys me more is the email stated the following
Start date: 07/03/2018 10:00pm
End date: 08/03/2018  02:00am.

They actually thought that the ISP's maintenance window as a whole month.

Must have been to the UK and dealt with Openreach before.

Junction 16. Wtf are they doing with the signage? Drove on it this morning for the first time in weeks, from Blagrove the left lane says M4 East, the next lane says Wroughton, 3rd says RWB, Wroughton and M4 West, 4th says M4 West.
I'll take lane 3. 100 yards later the sign says M4 West. I need to be in Lane 2. Ridiculous, and of course nobody wants to let you back in.

Taking away the pointless PC issue, Fireman doesn't actually work for the profession anyway, it's the name you'd give to a serial killer who uses fire, or maybe a superhero.

I'm led to believe that's just a temporary thing until the full work is completed. When finalised, from L to R it should be M4 East, Wroughton, RWB/M4 West, M4 West. I could be wrong though.

At the moment the timing is out and traffic out of Swindon heading toward Wroughton & RWB doesn't flow. When one light goes green, the other further on the roundabout stays red for too long.

This morning the traffic was queued from J16 right back to Blagrove Roundabout, so my trick is to go through Blagrove industrial estate and re-join by the VW dealership. Cuts out around 10-15 minutes of queuing.
