Back from Germany again...
being there makes me realise how "under-developed" Ireland is as a 1st world country... The infrastructure here is absoloutly crap compared to Germany... Ah well..

I started working in TSSG[^] about 3 weeks ago. It's a Research group that works mainly in the area of telecommunications.
It's a 6 month work placement from college... This job is a lot better than my other one.. which I'm keeping on [money reasons]...

I'm just back from my second trip to Germany. Was cool. Spent plenty of time with Ulla [ ] and got to see some cool parts of Germany..
The Dom in Speyer and Castle in Heidelberg [Very ] were excellent... I spent a day in Mannheim and had a class time there and went to Germany's Edge [where the Mosel and Rhein rivers meet ] yesterday... such a beautiful day and one which I wish I could have spent with Ulla for a lot lot longer...
Pictures soon... hopefully

Brian Dela

Looks like you saw some beautiful places! Mental note to self: Get your A into G and get over to Germany!
Nice to meet Ulla in pictures too
It's much better than the term "embedded," though. I'm tired of hearing about embedded reporters. That must be a lousy job, like having a career as a suppository. - Roger Wright

Yep. I did.
I was at some more besutiful places the second time [I haven't got around to scanning in the pictures yet] and I'm just back from Germany again [was over there for easter]. Did go visiting many places but spent a bit of time in Strassbourg in France and some little small villages. I'll get around to scanning int eh pictures from both as soon as I can.

Me. I'm great. A bit on the busy side lately.. Finished college yesterday so I have a week off and then 2 weeks of exams... I'll finish them on the 7th of March, which happens to be my birthday too so I've booked the weekend off work... I'm starting in TSSG on my work placement on the Monday after [the 10th of March] so I'm really really looking forward to that!!!
I still haven't managed to get those photo's from Germany scanned in . I'll try to get it done on monday or tuesday and I'll stick them up on my site somewhere.
So how's everything with Megan. I haven't talked to ya in a while. Might drop you an email sometime. You don't seem to be online much and when you are I'm normally busy!!!
So.. Any news?
Regards,
Brian Dela

All is well thanks. I decided to go and take some pics of the anti war protest in London today, which was a real eye opener! I have never seen so many people in my life! It was really crazy, and extremely interesting for us country bumpkins (I dragged poor Brendan around with me, running from point to point of where I was expecting to get good shots ).
Otherwise, I'm missing the sun, but enjoying life here still for the moment.

My fault - I keep forgetting to sign into AIM as my life is basically run by MSN I'll try to mend my ways...

It was - quite incredible! I went along to record history, and loads of people I know got really upset about it. Check the flame war this pic of mine started! Protest[^].

Yes . Brend and I spent today at the Home Office sorting his perm residence out. We have to stay here for another 2 years for him to be naturalized. I'm pleased it's not longer, although we are really looking forward to the next 2 years - so much to see around the UK and Europe It's gonna be fun (once it warms up a little...)

You don't look so ugly for a white guy.
But you are still to big to put in the pot, so we would have to tie you to a spit I guess.

... I have hung up my codeproject editors pen for a while.
I've been finding it hard to get the time lately that is required to edit articles. I only really have a chance to edit when I'm in college as I have no net connection in my flat [ ] and editing while at work wouldn't go down too well with my boss [ ]!!!
I've been a bit snowed under in college this year with projects. Nothing hard or stressful but they keep them coming thick and fast this year as we go out on placement in March and they try their best to fit a full years work into the shortened year [ ].
I'll be finished college at the end of February [ ] and hopefully, Chris permitting, I'll be back editing then.
Now even though I'm not an editor I please urge anyone who is currently writing an article or who is going to write one soon [or ever] to not use word to create your html and to read all the instructions... it makes life easier for everyone!!!
I should still be frequenting CP as much as ever [I know a lot of you are going and about now] so I'll still be around to annoy everybody.
It has been fun.

Brian Dela
