It's only a few hours to the weekend. Phew! Feeling very tired and not really in the mood for work right now, although I've got lots to do and can't really bunk off.

In geeky items, I apologise wholeheartedly to Firefox users for the last few months. When I set up Haven Reviews and did all the bug testing, Firefox was rendering the left-hand navigation bar in the way I intended. However, it appears that the recent upgrades have changed that and the menu has been broken :-( For all of you, not just the person who initially reported the problem. I probably would have spotted the problem if I'd updated to 2.0, but I've been lazy about that lately and the problem went unnoticed by me in my outdated Firefox. I now know what the problem is and I'll be working to fix it over the weekend. Sorry.

In less geeky items, I am still walking stick girl. Woe. Tomorrow I will hopefully be walking reasonably normally because it's my day in London. Otherwise we're going to be having lots of fun trying to get me in and out of trains.

The frustrating thing about finding out what the issue is with Haven Reviews is that now can't even look at the site to check that I'm right! The work firewall considers it inappropriate (humorous considering the things that I can get into if I desire) so I can't even sneak a peak at the code. Grrr. My fingers are itching to start work on it. Guess I'll just have to get myself a cup of tea and learn some patience.

I just looked out of the window and the rain is going side-ways. Hmm. Methinks that I won't be taking a walk this lunchtime.

My hip was bothering me yesterday and it's bothering me again today. In correcting my gait for the pain yesterday, I was managing to introduce an interesting moment where my knee bent backwards, which is one of the best ways that I know to dislocate it. So today I'm using the walking stick so that I hopefully stop the knee trick :-( I suspect that it's a combination of weather and tiredness causing the problem. Hopefully I'll be back to normal by the weekend so that I can do my shopping trip :-)

I find myself with rather less to say than I thought I had. Huh. Is it too early to start on the chocolate?

The only geeky comment I can think of is to note that I'm starting to look into how I can rework my websites so they don't explode in IE7. Yay. It's looking like conditional comments to serve alternate versions of the CSS file is the way to go now that hacks have been largely disabled. I just need to work out which bugs are still affecting IE7 and need alternative CSS for, and what it actually does properly now. Obviously installing IE7 over my IE6 will make testing for IE6 impossible - does anyone know of websites or, even better, Firefox plugins that will let me view websites in the different generations of IE so that I can see what's going on? Or even just view things in IE7 so that I don't have to overwrite IE6.
