End of term and holidays

Well the end of another long term and boy do I need a break.

We were going to catch a helicopter to the north east of the island, sadly that changed to a small plane, then the small plane decided it was going to go a day earlier than planned (while we are still working), because the day we were supposed to go, is good Friday, and the pilot decided that being a Buddhist, he'd like to celebrate Easter. We only bought the tickets a week ago, and obviously good Friday was decided at the last minute.
I lost my cool, as you can imagine.

So no plane trip to the North East. A bus journey to the beach for a bit of RnR before jetting off to Bangkok next Wednesday. Really looking forward to the next two weeks off.
I may blog from Bangkok depending on whether I've got anything to say or not.

Will be putting cruisers level 5 in the queue before jetting off, and upon my return I'll have a few days more training before I can get in my recently acquired Tengu.

A return to Level 4's

This week has seen Religiosa return to doing some level 4 missions with an old friend Harry (do you feel lucky punk?) Calahan. It must be said he did the majority of the tanking and the DPS and I just went along in my Raven (got BS lvl5 completed last week) to help. We ripped through some good ones and earnt ourselves lots of iskies and LPs. It was really good to get back into that kind of mental action again, it was good to see how my tanking and DPS had improved since I last flew my Raven.
I still prefer the tank on my Drake, but my BS lays down a lot more hurt.

My Eve Space

A lot of the Eve bloggers have been posting their Eve Spaces. Here's mine. I'm lucky if I get any eve time at the moment, but if I do here's where I play.

What you're looking at: one 22" and one 19" screens (this screen set up for EVE was an experiment, I don't play like this normally (horizontally split; gives me neck ache! and my ship is always cut in half ). Wireless mouse and keyboard. Quad core processor, 1Gb PCIexpress Graphics, 4Gb Ram, Sound Blaster Audigy sound card. 1 x 120Gb HD and 1x 500Gb HD. It rocks. Oh, and...of course...XP Pro. Considering going to Windows 7; any advice?
