  1. Same here and that is without putting the heating on yet as well!
  2. Though they might not suggest a sense of achievement and progression, at one of my last schools we used: Can't Stop the Feeling! - Justin Timberlake Happy - Pharrell Williams Both songs give a feel good vibe and good for a look back at the last academic year.
  3. We broke up for the summer last Friday, so already enjoying the peace!List of jobs, that I have thought of so far: - Our smaller site is being closed down, so we have to decommission it of all IT equipment, we started this yesterday and everything is moved/unplugged and in 1 room apart from Smartboards, WAPs and server which will be removed over the next couple of weeks. First pick up of hardware is on Thursday where we will load up a couple of the school buses and unload it to a secure place on site. - Hardware will need to be sorted through to see what to keep and what to get rid off. - Create a new 20H2 image to deploy to this hardware and rebuild current laptops. - Move across staff and pupils who will be starting here in September from closed site. - Copy data across from closed site. - Remove old group policies/OUs for other site. - Setup new staff and pupils. - Sort through shed of old equipment that has hardware that has been in there before I started last year and get it removed from site with any additional kit. - Support staff being moved around to different rooms, so need to be around to move hardware. - 1 ICT Suite is being re-cabled and additional network points put in a few rooms (not by us though!). - Decide where Smartboards from closed site are going to be installed replacing old IWBs. I've also got to fit in 2 weeks holiday (have a week off next week) and my apprentice has got to take 3 weeks off as well.
  4. I saw this about a week ago, it's okay but no John Wick.
  5. I've got the same issue here as well, just wondering if it was a Windows update that has caused the problem like various printing issues that started after the updates that got pushed out last Tuesday. I've got to get my hands on one of the laptops in Art department who reported the issue to me to check.
  6. Just found this thread, I now work in an independent school in the countryside that backs on to a farm, the school building is an old country estate that was built in the late 1800s. I've seen many rabbits, deer and kestrels especially during the school holidays when it is quieter, but the best so far has to be driving down the lane up towards the school at the start of this Spring term and flying along the side of me just over the hedge was a barn owl, I've not seen one of these beauties for years.
  7. I got myself the disc version as I like having both options and also I have a good library of Blurays that I would watch on it as well. I agree with you on the controller, such a great piece of kit and it is smaller than it looked in the photos, fits snuggly in the hand. Now I don't know if my PS4 controller was on its way out or not but the thumb sticks feel a lot more precise as well. I've not purchased a PS4 game for ages now so might have to get Ghost of Tsushima at some point to give that a go with the upgraded PS5 version of the game.
  8. If you do eventually get one and get a Playstation Plus subscription they have what is called the Playstation Plus Collection which means you can download and play some of the PS4 exclusives like God of War, The Last of Us, Days Gone and a few others, they might also add to it over the coming months. I will catch up on a few that I missed myself with this as well.
  9. I managed to snag a pre-order and mine arrived on Thursday as well, I only purchased Spiderman Miles Morales, had a bit of a play of that and having a blast with Astrobot as well, have completed it but just working towards the platinum on it now. How you finding it so far?
  10. Just out of interest are we allowed to advertise ourselves as looking for a new job, as I am in that current situation myself?
  11. Thanks for the pizza, it was very well received and I think the rest of the pack going in for the pizzas also enjoyed it!! It was also good to look at the Net-Ctrl stand and your CCTV solutions.
  12. I tried 3 exams and passed 2, I reckon the other one was touch and go as well!
  13. A photo of the freebies I got today, including the IPad/tablet holder from Lock'n'Charge Tech! I didn't see as many freebies compared to last year, I either didn't look hard enough or suppliers are cutting back! Also thanks to the Edugeek stand for the 2 slices of pizza, the lanyard and badge!
  14. That's good to hear! So how does the test go is it just a multiple choice questions and answers? I've never done anything like this before so have no ideas myself. Also the exam you did, have you got to have full knowledge of Windows 10? Here we are on Windows 7 and I only use, have played about with 10 at home.
  15. Would have been god to have known about it before it had started!! I might have to try the turn up and see if I can get in on it.
