*dies of heat* Can I go back to Norway now? Please? It was a nice 21C there and it was pretty too plus there was snow! Far far too hot and smelly here in London. I just bought a summer sleeping bag for the camping this weekend as my usual 4-seasons sleeping bag of uber-warmness will be an oven. Plus I got a shiny new mat with a fairy on it *squeeeee*. Really looking forward to Trowbridge, it's going to be so much fun! Yay! :)

[livejournal.com profile] cassielalone needs urgent computer help. Just days before she was about to copy everything off her computer, the hard disk died. She's in a real panic as she's got lots and lots of data on there she really wants to keep, poor thing. The BIOS auto-detects the drive fine, but then reports "Primary Master HDD Error" and won't boot from any device. Deactiviting the drive in the BIOS allowed me to boot via an ubuntu live CD (which I stole off some friendly geeks nearby), which also finds the /dev/hda device fine, but then only to find the partition table of the drive is unreadable and unwritable. This isn't looking good. Does anyone have any experience or tools for recovering data off really dead hard disks? Help! *hopefulsmile*

Late saturday evening I sat by the fountain in Trinity, watching the stars. You see, I have my favourite spot (all mine, I tell you) where I used to sit there many years back. It's the best place ever to see stars, as theres lots of darkness and the only noise is just the quiet trickle of the fountain. Its so calm and peaceful and makes me happy. I love simple pleasures like that. *nod* *nod* Of course, sunday we went to cinema to see the pirates film, which was also lots of silly fun.
