    Cowboy bizness mashups update

    <RANT>

    -they finally have their system as stable as possible
    -testing of attachment transfer betweens systems starts tomorrow
    -their proposed solution is to use a script to ftp attachments from my system to their etch-a-sketch "no developers required" piece of tulipe via a remote ftp location (their system cannot handle attachments any other way )
    -as today is the day before testing their PM decided it would be sensible to test firewalls are open..they aren't
    -their firewall team have said they are backed up and it will take 4-6 weeks to open up port 21 between the 2 locations

              haha

              Germany has Corpus Christi day tomorrow and so it's another national holiday , as usual most german's take the friday off as a bridging holiday

              so it's another 3 day week but sadly just 3 days pay

              although gf chef is driving down to visit for a week

              .. so i guess it works out well. BBQ by the river, cycling round the lake, beer gardens and sun.

              Life isn't just about work and money for Chef

                My payment is based on deliverables and I just finished something that needs to be in next Friday. Think I will spend next week getting in front for the next deliverable. 2 weeks off in August looking good.

                  Those that take the firewall team to the pub afterwards if they make this minor change promptly will prevail.

                  HTH

                    they're in Finland and the pub is most likely the reason it'sgonna take 6 weeks to do the job
