No time at all

Again, been far to long since the last one of these, where does the time go? And that leads me neatly onto a rant (feel free to skip the next couple of paragraphs).

Dear Anne, why oh why oh why can’t a DateTime object in C# (.net) be null, or have no value? Eh? Answer me that. “But why on earth would you want this?” you may be asking. (Or maybe not, but to be honest I’m gonna tell you anyhow). Well, what if you have user accounts for something, but some of them can be set to expire and others have no expiry date. Grrr.

OK, I’ll cut the rant short. In other news I now have a legit copy of Visual Studio 2003 (yes, I am aware the 2005 version is released in November) so my laptop is back to being totally legit (apart from the MP3s). Necessary evil I’m afraid.

Have I mentioned that I hate computers? How I wish I was at Glastonbury right now. Guess I’ll have to be cotent with the coverage on the BBC (starts Friday BBC3, 8pm - 2am). Moo.
