Put it on the boss's bill
A very unusual thing happened at work this afternoon: the boss decided to take us all out to lunch. Belated birthday celebrations and today being the last sunny day for a while were cited as reasons, but either way, I wasn't about to turn down an offer of free food. And so, ar aghaidh linn go dtí an Kippe and filled our bellies with fine fare. 'Twas very convivial indeed, and had the extra bonus of chasing away the last of my minor hangover.
Also found a new place to drink last night. The dark Hefeweizen was silky smooth from the tap and it's the kind of place you can bring a laptop and sit in the corner (there's even a conveniently placed socket).

About
This is LeSinge.org v3.0. It's on its sixth* server since I registered the domain name in November of 2000 and it has gone through several drastic facelifts in that time, usually prompted by some cataclysmic event like someone deleting a load of files they shouldn't, or a server being shut down. This is the maddest layout yet; I'm trying to fit the entire weblog (apart from diary archives and the gallery) into a single loading page using all sorts of PHP-generated DHTML jiggery-pokery. The idea is to make it more inviting to look around since there's no loading between "pages". It's still a work in progress (more a proof of concept than anything), so be patient!
I'm Dave Whyte, an Irish CS graduate, German speaker, linguist and incredibly talented web developer. I'm originally from Fermoy but I now live in Newbridge with my wife Beth and our son. I'm currently working for these fine folks and enjoying it greatly.
"The Monkey"? Eh?
My nom de guerre comes from an old Eddie Izzard comedy sketch.
