While out and about yesterday afternoon we noticed on the Edinburgh Evening News headline boards that swans on one of the lochs in Holyrood park have been poisoned (See BBC, Edinburgh Evening News); Saint Margaret’s Loch directly below Saint Antony’s Chapel.
It’s been confirmed that they have lead poisoning of all things and they are thinking about draining the loch in an effort to find the source.
If I find out more I’ll post an update.
I got some very good news in the post this morning (well it turned up for a start). After weeks of waiting I got the letter informing me that I had passed the ITIL Foundation v3 exam, which I sat on 27th September.
Really happy about this as I started reading about ITIL some time in May this year, just before I learned about version 3. All in all I think it’s a good improvement over version 2 and well worth doing.
It’s been a few weeks since I did any work on Rails-CMDB. This is mainly down me being busy and getting stuck on how to test the import of data. I’ve come to the conclusion that it really is an integration story, so now the problem is how to do the file uploads.
It’ll not be hard to generate a complete set of CSV files and place them on disk, but my issue would be how to upload them. Does anyone have any useful suggestions ?
While in the park on Saturday I spent some time playing with manual exposure, trying to get some sky shots with texture in clouds by just using the camera exposure meter and no post processing.
The best three images are on Flickr, however I think this one is my favourite.
