04/14/2003: "Blimey.....What a weekend that was! Volume Two"

I like to think that the weekend starts the moment I leave work on Friday, sometimes even as early as Tuesday but this past weekend was more traditional. The first event of note actually began a couple of weeks back. Our VHS/DVD combo was not working in the way it was designed. We took it back to the store and had to add five bucks for a slightly better model because ours was no longer sold there. Having got the new unit home and working as advertised, I popped online to see if there was a hack that would allow me to play DVDs from elsewhere. Woohoo! There was an easy fix to my problem and we now had a multi-region DVD player.
The next pay check promted me to visit Amazon.co.uk where the first five series of 'Only Fools and Horses' were soon ordered.
Fat-forward to this weekend. I return home on Friday evening to find a package waiting for me. The wait was over and the hack could be tested. Luvely-Jubbly! It worked just great. Robin and Jake are now being educated in the affairs of the Trotters and all will live happily ever after.
