Missed Deliveries & CAD Drawings

Its been quite a busy week so far.  I finally have the car back from the body shop (after someone had backed into it) so it mean I didn’t have to worry about getting the train and spending a fortune on StarBucks @ New Street Station.  I have also been training this week on using the Alphacam’s CAD/CAM package called …. AlphaCAM.

Its been a bit of steep learning curve having never, ever ever been near or attempted to do a CAD diagram.  At the end of the second day I can draw doors, face plates and such like as well as create the machine code to machine it out of wood, metal etc.

The main advantage of not working at home has finally surfaced, not being there to receive parcels.  I’m waiting for two deliveries a new digital camera (dropped off 2 days ago which I now have to wait for till Friday to get from the post office) and also a set of iPod speakers which will probably suffer the same fate.  I did check with the girls on reception though and I can get stuff delivered to work which will make a big difference.

I also can’t wait for the weekend as Katie and I are going to look at a possible venue for the wedding next week and fingers crossed its just as nice as it looks and more importantly its available.
