How the hell'd it get to May already? Anyway! I've managed to complete my course, and am now just waiting on my final mark (and the resulting certificate); now I 'just' have to find a job somewhere, at one of the many garages locally. That's gonna be fun.

"Ugh" about sums it up. Haven't updated this in ages; running on a severe lack of arsed. In training as a light-vehicle mechanic -- which means having to be up at 0500H M-Th so I can spend 2 hours on a bus to the training centre. Supposed to finish there with a Level 2 Diploma in Light Vehicle Maintenance on the 27th of April. We shall see. After that, I'm not

Holy crap; I am lousy at keeping this thing updated. Still stuck in my rut; although wearing it deeper trudging back and forth to the Jobcenter. Probably going to be going back to doing warehouse work for Staffline again for giftmas; and I don't care, it's money.

The project I've chosen, since I seem to be having fun with it, right now (That will probably change, when I start having to work on the boring bits of it, though.), is cow16.

Yup, still lousy at updating this damn thing. May as well make it a static page, for all the good running a script is doing. Anyway; the only things of any interest have been, in no particular order: ### Apprenticeships

I know, I know; I'm lousy at updates. And not just to this blog, either; everything's stagnated whilst real-life gets in the way (As is its wont.) I'm sure I'll find something else to get angry at and write a rant about, though. In the meantime, here are some tiny updates, for those who care about such things:

Well, it appears that Klompen is slowly maturing. Now it has a preview of each article, an extra link or two for navigation, author profile pages (Which have been 404ing for ages, since I hadn't got around to it.) And! I got the RSS feed generation working after I broke it whilst driving the refactor tractor over the code.
