My abode
I’m back in Billingham for three weeks during the break from University. The next two months is going to be pretty hectic with moving about all over the place. I’m of course heading back to Stafford for week 11 and 12 of this semester. Then I’ve got to travel to Brussels for a weekend to...
Cisco placement!
My degree – being a sandwich degree – has a placement opportunity in the middle between the 2nd and 3rd year. This placement is ideal for someone doing such a hands on degree such as mine as allows them to gain a years experience before even graduating. It is especially important seen as once I...

God I’d like to work here
Above are photos of the largest data centre in Russia, in Samara… Russia. Despite the clearly frigid weather outside, inside the data centre looks at least above zero degrees and like quite a nice place to work. Also being a Tier 3 data centre I’m sure the backup generators will keep it warm even if...
Well looky here…
Even though my University is one of the few Cisco Academies in the UK, it doesn’t mean that the kit we have available will always be in good working order.
