Better Together / Vista SP1

Firstly, last weeks sermon is here.

Secondly, I spend the morning meeting with the vicar and fellow readers at a half day for clergy and readers designed to get us working together better. We have unique circumstances. I know everybody has, but we have really unique circumstances. Warner, our incumbent, is recovering slowly. He may never fully recover, and we have to learn to work with him in the best way we can. We do not suffer from any of the issues raised in the conference, or at least I don't think we do. Nevertheless, it was a good exercise to go through, and started us thinking about how things might be in the future.

Thirdly, I have had another go at applying Vista SP1. It worked. The CD-drive worked, and so did the network. Could this be fixes that Microsoft have provided in the interim? Could it be that the start-up that found an error and took 40 minutes to correct it (and stopped the printer working) the other day has done the trick? Could it be that the CHKDSK /F that I ran afterwards, that fixed 5 files index entries has had an influence?
I cannot say, I have no way of even finding out. The good news is that SP1 is in and apparently working. The bad news is that the printer isn't, but that's not a problem for today. Too much change in one day is bad for the system (both Windows, and Pete).

Later I will be learning how to dance.


Yes, really.
