Moving On
A couple of you on my friends list have migrated from the UK to the US in recent years. I'm interested in your experiences with moving "stuff".
Did you take a large amount of "stuff" with you? If so was there a specific company that you used and would recommend or any mistakes that I can learn from.
My wife is already in the US so I've been sending smaller, valuable items via parcel but there has to be a more cost efficient way isn't there?
Plenty more "moving on" questions to come in the next few months.

Car Mechanics Via Remote Control
Barbara has had trouble with the headlights on her car staying on. Even after shutting the car off. Barbara would have to disconnect battery every time she left the car.
The Ford garage checked the switches and found nothing wrong. Just half an hour on the Interwebs and I found that the "Daylight Running Lights" sensor was a likely candidate. It appears that the unit has a constant power source even when the ignition is turned off.
I was looking further into where this unit is and whether it would be easy for Barbara to unplug.
Barbara left me a message saying that the problem had been fixed.
"headlights are 'fixed' the highbeams were the problem, fuse kept them locked on and the relay wouldnt account for them being off"
On the phone I was able to sort out that it was indeed the "DRL" unit that was at fault. Simply unplugging the unit was sufficient to turn the lights off. Now the lights aren't on during the day but that's not a legal requirement so we're all good.

It's NOT Swine Flu!
On Friday night I started sneezing. I thought it was an allergic reaction at first because I very quickly went from feeling fine to uncontrollable sneezing fit.
I could not stop sneezing, it got to the point where my chest was sore from sneezing so much.
By 4am on Saturday morning I eventually fell asleep through exhaustion. I woke up sneezing, grabbed myself some cerial then went back to bed. I had not concept of what the time was. The bedside table was piled high with used tissues.
Thankfully by Sunday morning the sneezing had stopped. Sunday was my recovery day.
Now I have a chesty cough and still feel a little light headed from a weekend of nothing proper to eat.
It's just a cold but it wiped out my entire weekend.

- 00:47 @DaveLaMorte Would have helped you but the post didn't really give much details of what was wrong :) #
- 00:51 With head offices in Europe I would have thought that Canonical would have released Ubuntu 9.04 at midnight. Guess I'll try in the morning. #

- 10:32 Bounty hunters don't look anything like the ones in Star Wars. No blaster, no armor, just looked like a normal bloke. #
- 10:38 @steelrattus It was a little too easy to get rid of him "Sorry he's moved to the US." Should try that the next time someone asks for me! #
- 14:09 @babsalicious Just took my word that he wasn't here even after I stumbled on "Where in the US has he gone to?" #

iPod Touch Apps Review
The first thing that I'm using my iPod Touch for is a bedside clock. This little application displays a clock which would make Jack Bauer proud. A recent patch to the application has cured a tiny problem which was "Cured problem where time appears to stop."
Not much good having a clock which just, stops. Perhaps I was supposed to shake the clock to wind it up?

And Daz Said
"Let There Be Light" and there were lights and they weren't too bad.
We had some Tiffany lamp shades in the hall and on the landing. Heavy, leaded glass shades which hung just low enough that I was forever banging my head on them.
While I like the Tiffany design I did not like these low hanging dust traps.
Today I replaced the Tiffany lights and the bulb on a cable in the living room with simple lamp shades. I also found a replacement light switch as the variable dimmer in the living room did not work well with the low power light bulb.
Taking down the light on the landing I found that the wires were bare and had clearly been sparking since there were black marks along them. Putting up the new fittings not only make them look better but make the house that little bit safer too. Now I just need two more low power bulbs.
