I've spent the last few weeks elbow deep in VBA.

Today I got to play with VB itself, worked out how to create a DLL in about 3 minutes and dumped a whole bunch of the code I've created into it so that anyone can use it from their own programs.

I'd rather be using something with proper OOP, but it's miles better than COBOL.

In other news, Ed has stripped the wallpaper in the bathroom, organised new flooring and someone to fit it for the bathroom and kitchen, booked a plumber to fix a (small) leak, organised the buying of sealant and paint for the bthroom and generally seems to be on a campaign to make the flat nice.  I may have to give him the bathroom to take with if he ever moves out.

I'm away in Kent for the weekend, so hopefully I'll be more alive next week.

Bed now.  More awake tomorrow...

Enjoy Kent. I used to live in a bit of Kent next to a lovely bit of Kent. Just beware Gravesend, amphetamine capital of Europe *checks map* Oh, my bad. I think Gravesend might now be in Greater London. Eeee, takes me back to when all that were fields/car parks...

Tired, and with particularly sore forearms, one would imagine. I do hope you're observing basic hygiene practices.

So what does VBA stand for? Violet Beauregarde the Albatross? You do know that 'Albatrossing' is so last year. All the fashionable gentlemen are buggering swans.
