Credit where Credit's Due

Long time no post - well there's no excuse, so on with it!

First, a warning. Beware your credit rating. We've been turned down for a couple of things, we me presumed was due to a recent move to a new address (start of June), having been travelling for 3 months, and the fact that we had yet to appear on the Belfast electoral role. Nope, wrong! Rang a company that turned me down for a credit card, and it appears there was some bad debt against a previous address in London - we left the address in 2001, and the bad debt appears in November 2003, but still it goes on my credit file as a bad debt - nice! So, in the process of sorting it out. Let's see how long that takes.

On the work front, i've been installing Oracle 10g (on Windows unfortunately) so i can compare the latest Enterprise Manager with a product ASG recently both - AutoDBA. I think, that with Oracle's additions to 10g, that AutoDBA could be in trouble, but we'll see.

On the Java front, been plowing on re-architecting a mediator - yawn!
