Wednesday The 8th (aka Your Taxes Are Due In A Week!)

You felt good for 3 whole hours? There are days when I wish I knew what 3 hours of feeling good felt like, and as it happens today is one of those days.

But I'm ordering my mind to "be in a good mood" anyway. And my mind knows better than to argue with me, or I'll force it to think about Margaret Thatcher naked on a cold day, over and over.

It hates when I do that.

Re-used a script which runs fine on one site, on a second site and kept getting 403 Forbidden when I ran it. Since it was fine on the other site I contacted the host to tell them the server was fucked and they spent much of the day trying to find the fault.

Turns out it was my fucking fault. When I copied the script I forgot to change the route to a file to suit the new URL, so it was trying to redirect to a non-existent page in a protected folder.

Red face at this end, and a grovelling apology email on the way to the hosting company.

And to all of you fretting over your taxes - at the moment I love tax, it is the best thing in the whole wide world. It is a long story, and you have to know the British tax law to understand it, so I won't bore you with the whole thing, but thanks to my father trying to pay less tax, he ran a "thingy" ("thingy" being the technical name for anything I don't understand, eg complicated tax arrangements), and as a result I have ended up with enough money in the bank to finance my first short movie!

Hollywood here I come.

Or at least Pinewood!
