Hooray, another SWLUG meet this week, this time in Swansea, should be fun as this time I aim to get there before 6pm.

I have been playing with GnomeICU this last week and tried to squish a few bugs before giving up and playing around with a tv listings app. Which ended up in me submitting a small patch, I'm now currently trying to get my head around Gnu/Gettext and the associated POTFILES although it's bewen slow reading because the Snooker LG cup has been distracting me.

Turns out the ISP that I may have an interview with this week is NTL, the interview I had this week was just with the agency which made me sit a test on MS Windows. Apparently I was the first to have scored 100% on the test. The other Interview I went for last week went ok, but the job (Windows NT Consultant) wasn't exactly what I was looking for and so far I haven't been invited back for a second interview. :)
