A Week Flies By

So, where the heck did that week go?!

It’s been a great week once again. How do I know this? Well getting up and feeling excited about what I am doing is one good indicator and also the fact that I’m working with a great team of people too!

Firstly, a quick hat tip to The Merlin Pub / Hotel over near Macclesfield in Cheshire. I stayed there during the week and enjoyed great accommodation and even better service. Really good staff and nice food. Two areas of improvement - better breakfast needed - by this I mean being able to have a decent coffee, and a cooked option (just fresh eggs would be perfect). Secondly, free WiFi - this is expected these days.

October has been a great month for the business, with two new clients and some very exciting projects lining up for the future. You know it is good, when you are happily working away at all hours, really enjoying what you’re doing and thinking about all the cool stuff coming up too!

Apple Stuff

Bit if a mixed bag here. The 30″ Screen which suddenly decided not to work, has been swiftly replaced under Applecare and is now back in the command bunker. However, my patience is beginning to run a little thin with the MacBookPro. The first one had dead pixels. The second, opened in store had scratches. The third which I went to collect especially yesterday has a ding on one corner and yet more scratches.

All I want is a perfect MBP, fresh out of the box. Not too much to ask, or is it? Next update on Tuesday when I will be calling in again to try and get one which is not damaged :(

I hope you’ve all had a great weekend and have an even better week!

    OMG - it sounds like you are having a right nightmare getting your hands and a ’scratch free’ MBP - I’d be fuming as well.

    Hope they manage to sort you out soon mate. I’m shocked you’re having such shit service from Apple :(

    I’m having great service - the Sheffield guys and gals are superb, and hugely attentive.

    It’s just the QC from Apple which is a little concerning.
