RSS2Email

Well, RSSFwd works pretty well, but it's often has a really slow interface which can be a pain if you want to change, for example, from HTML to normal email. So I'm giving RSS2Email a go. No support for OPML unfortunately, but it seems to work otherwise.

6th Time

Oops. Just realised that Windows installed onto D, rather than C. So, yet another reinstall on monday.

This is harder work than you might hope. I've installed windows maybe 40 times. It shouldn't be hard.

Reinstalling Windows

On my fifth attempt to reinstall windows now. Keep on managing to get something wrong — getting the hard drive partitions backwards or whatever. Also the on the disk format option it has "do you want me to do it quick, or to take ages". I keep on getting the wrong one and there's no way to stop it.

It even tells you "Windows will now format you life; Press Enter to continue" before it starts. And YOU CAN'T GO BACK! IT'S FOREVER!

Hmmmm.

Virgin Arrives

Just got cable fitted. This is the second attempt; first time the engineer didn't show up, or said he did, but didn't try phoning or anything. Wasn't too bad, although took quite a while and I couldn't use my existing extension line as I hoped. Think he should have vacuumed the floor afterwards, though, and was not best pleased to find that he left wall staples on my bedroom floor; would have been more than not best pleased if I had got them in my foot. All seems to be working, though.

Just unplugged my fan, and plugged in my office heater. Winter is here.
