20th February, 2018.
Yep, you’re right …
The trains got delayed, last night!
Not that I, a seriously knackered commuter wanting to go home, minded a basic delay.
Please note, I say basic delay.
Last night’s wasn’t basic.
It was full on ‘one hour delay caused by points failure’ type delay, or nothing.
With the net result?
There’s a very tired blogger sitting in front of a posh computer, this morning!

Talking of which … ?
And just in case you’re interested?
So far, it’s day two of using my nice shiny new iMac, and I have to admit to a couple of minor disappointments.
It turns out that
HandBrake needs work: the DVD decryption library it relies on to circumvent copy protection needs to be installed via Terminal. Which I’ve tried … only to be asked for a password I don’t recognise.
There’s workarounds: mostly involving things like
RipIt, which let you copy DVDs minus the digital rights management protection.
So it’s not the total lose you’d’ve thought.
Still … it’s a little disappointing.
The only other disappointment?
Is that long time favourite games,
Pac the Man X and Connect M no longer work under High Sierra.
That’s a real disappointment.
Granted, it means less distraction, but even so …
