Pip and I did a shorter walk this morning, just to give our legs a rest.
It was a calmer day today so I could get loads done. I did have a call with James of Taiko West to discuss a few things and we went down the rabbit hole of testing Internet speed and I was quite pleased that we were able to conclude that James’ broadband connection is really quite good but the data transfer from the BT OpenReach box is only able to transfer data at 100mps instead of what I’m getting, which is 1Gigabit. So the definitive conclusion is upgrade the router so James can eliminate the DSL box.
After that I went straight into my weekly LinkedIn Lunch event via Google Meet. It’s so funny whenever I’ve done one of these, I’ve always ended up with just one attendee and today was no exception. I was delighted though because we had a really good hour chatting about well-being and of course the current pandemic. It was a lovely chat with Robert.
Thereafter I had a late lunch and caught up with many emails and get in touch with a client and a potential client. I am quite astounded that I may end up with 4 animation projects during lockdown, unbelievable.
Finished at 4pm for the day after helping one of the Taiko online students test their technology.
Happy days. The week ended well.
Michael out…
