RT @markwragg: I’ve just realised you can use Should in the #PowerShell terminal adhoc to perform a quick @PSPester-esque validation. For…
On my personal PC I’m running powershell in VS @Code on Linux, and on my work PC I’m running powershell in VS @Code on Windows…..and I tend to forget that I’m running different OS’s
This would have been unthinkable just 2 years or so ago(?), but I tend to take it for granted.
#TodayILearned that in Powershell to replace ‘carriage return’ (I think…it renders as \r in my setup), you have to put the `r in double quotes not single quotes
$BodyText = $BodyText.replace("`r"," “)
I saw ‘Graham Brady’ was trending….wasn’t sure whether to be pleased or not. My guess is that if Mrs May goes the next PM will be Johnson
I enjoy Tim Martin’s breakfasts and his carpets, but I do feel that being a multi-millionaire who qualified as a barrister should preclude one from labelling others as ‘toffs’
I found a path in Salisbury that I never knew existed at the weekend
It’s slippy and a bit dangerous at this time of year…but rather lovely
A trophy at last!
@johncrossmirror - Mauricio Pochettino asked about ‘Arry being king of the jungle. He clearly had no idea but said: “congratulations. And a trophy for us!”
RT @gothick: If we need a more coherent government, it’s worth bearing in mind that all three of The Goodies are still alive.
#OnThisDay in 1833 it was announced that gas street lighting would be installed in Fisherton Street, Salisbury
RT @neal_sousbois: I’ve thought about it long and hard and I fail to see what could possibly go wrong today. Come on Chelsea
RT @Buzzcocks: It’s with great sadness that we confirm the death of Pete Shelley, one of the UK’s most influential and prolific songwriters…
#OnThisDay in 2007 @UNESCO said that it ‘‘regrets the U.K. government’s decision to cancel the A303 Stonehenge Road Improvement scheme on the basis of cost concerns"
One of those days on which I can see the point of these ‘motor car’ things
The thing with the moon landings being faked……
If they were faked were the previous Apollo missions faked too?
And if they were faked was Sputnik faked?

I was ‘involved’ in a brief mobile phone outage once (many, many years ago)….and it does still put a lot of other IT problems in perspective
I should be using:
‘get-eventlog -LogName system -newest 10
….which is more efficient anyway, and has the added bonus of not being really daft thing to do
Today’s act of Powershell stupidity is expecting:
‘get-eventlog -LogName system | select -last 10’
….to give me the 10 most recent events. Will I ever learn? t.co/mifTY7RDM…
Marvellous evening at the Union Chapel with @nowthisissonny, @orlagartland, @levvis, @laurenaquilina, @HanGraceMusic and @GabrielleAplin
God bless them, every one!
If Tyson Fury wins Sports Personality of the Year, will someone ask if he can twerk?
