  1. Thank you - it would definitely be within commuting distance, but I don't think they have anything that I could do. I'll give them a call and see. Cheers! Rob
  2. Hi all, I've been on here a good few years - used the site for numerous helps and tips - but now I'm looking for something rather important. I am currently based in Plymouth, but I need to find a job working in IT in Scotland. Particularly in or around the Dundee/Perth area. It's the usual situation, meet the love of your life and they live 500 miles away. Having spoken to a Network Manager from the local area down here this morning, I know that I'm not alone in that! I am a confident, capable and dependable member of the IT profession who is keen to take on anything that is going within the field. I am looking to move and start the new job ASAP - after my 4 weeks notice period at the school I currently work in. I find myself in the unfortunate position that I have lots of experience, but no paperwork to back it up, aside from the FITS (akin to ITIL) certification - which has hit me pretty hard in the job application process. I am really keen to meet possible employers so I can show what I can do. I run, lead and manage the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Gold expedition scheme in the school, so have plenty of leadership and experience of working in adverse conditions, which will hopefully work in my favour. I know that it's a long shot, but I am happy to pursue and leads that come in, as I'm really keen to get myself up there, where I need to be. I have a CV ready to send off if anyone has any ideas? Thanks all, a crate of your favourite beverage and lifelong friendship to anyone that can help me out. Cheers, Rob
  3. Cheers! I'll get that sorted. - - - Updated - - - Cheers! I'll get that sorted.
  4. Same here. I blame @arwen... ;-)
  5. Yeah, that makes sense.
  6. +1 on that
  7. TMC works for me.
  8. We'll hit eBay once it's been out a while - you'll have your Book, Map and Statue! ;-)
  9. Arwen and I have. Standard. Deluxe was crazy money...
  10. Arwen and I played it for 27 hours over the weekend. A few buggy quests, but otherwise great gameplay. Ran great on my 6 year old gaming machine (8800GTS 512, 4gb ddr2 1066 and core 2 duo 3.2ghz).
  11. I travel 10 miles by Motorbike from Dartmoor down into Plymouth. Takes about 25 minutes on a good day, 35 on a bad one. It's nice on sunny days, and just about bearable on wet ones. I hope that helps!
  12. We run XP on a CC4 network. Looking to go to 7 in a year or so - Because of all the bugs, Vista was simply never an option.
  13. Anyone packaged this for CC4? We've just been quoted £600 for RM to build us one, but funds are short - as usual!
  14. It was strangely exciting to find these... (8 in total). The 6th form class and Latin teacher nextdoor were quite confused by our enthusiasm over, and I quote.. "a couple of bits of plastic"... They called us 'sad' - They are learning a dead language, as we're sad?!?
  15. The Boss and I were checking out an old store in our Humanities department - As a prospective new HOY office; when we came across a few absolute gems... I miss Token Ring... Anyone remember these...? http://lh6.ggpht.com/_Ge9DtRprnro/S-vH1HB62aI/AAAAAAAABvQ/GKjRpwoqQv8/DSCF3656.JPG http://lh6.ggpht.com/_Ge9DtRprnro/S-vH1F-GNqI/AAAAAAAABvU/SpUkcVC4GaA/DSCF3657.JPG http://lh5.ggpht.com/_Ge9DtRprnro/S-vH1Wi8Z3I/AAAAAAAABvY/5jA0sMaQnVg/DSCF3659.JPG Sadly, the original Token Ring Switch that was located alongside the bank of converters is long gone. Sorry for the photo quality, sods law states that the only day I need my DSLR I don't bring it to work....
  16. I use RM tutor 4 as part of CC4. If they cross me twice, I just use the 'Log Off Client' feature and disable their account in the AD. Then when they come to the Office to moan, I send them off to the head of ICT to explain what they did and why
  17. We use the Epson EB-S7+ SVGA. About £360 ex VAT. Really bright at 2300 Lumens and includes 1 free replacement lamp. They are ideal with Promethean and Smart boards.
