Blog Entry on the Thursday 02nd, June, 2005


I have a new job, same place, promotion.

Team Leader Contractual Maintainance (Fault Control Centre)

Direct and control a team of nine staff, dealing with complaints about defective traffic control equipment from the Police, Local Borough Officers, Members of the Public, Internal clients and any other body requiring assistance. Manage the operational and contractual maintenance aspects of the Fault Control Centre to ensure that the traffic signal and LDIS maintenance contracts meet the specified performance targets.


All your bases^H^H^H^H^H, Traffic Signals belong to me. As there are only ~ 4,800 Traffic Signal locations in London it should give me busy for a while.

Good points :-
  • New challenge
  • Fault control is a fun place to work. (Broken elbows...)
  • Operational experience is good for my CV
  • More money
  • Promotion
Negatives :-

Which Fantasy/SciFi Character Are You?


An impassioned commander with more respect for individuals than for authority, you have a no-holds-barred approach to life and its obstacles. I don't believe in the no-win scenario.

LOL :)

Pill Cams fantastic voyage

Blog Entry on the Wednesday 22nd, June, 2005


The BBC has a story (and real audio video) about a Pill Cam, from Given Imaging. Which is swallowed to show pictures inside the gut (ra). The capsule is the size of a large multi-vitamin tablet and takes two digital images per second of the lining of the intestine. The Pill Cam takes about seven hours to journey through the body. More facts about the Pill Cam.
