So I finally Decided to do this blog thing....

So I finally Decided to do this blog thing....

Yup after much nagging from chums and colleges I decided to write some of my geek, DBA musings and experiences down....

So let's see.....I have been a DBA for about 6 years now. Mainly experience with Windows / MS SQL Server Environments from MS SQL 200 up to new and shiny MS SQL 2016.

My current job I have just finished 6 months and delved into the dark side of Oracle Database & Middleware fun times, so may post about my new experiences on this too.... at the moment is like voodoo... when you are picking through your forms printer config post script for static printer tray entries you wonder... this is SQL!? But hey interesting times ahead...!

I have worked in IT for about 12 years.... Worked in large companies, small companies, public and prviate sector... not bad considering I am 30... er something.....

I studied IT at university, yes I actually wanted to work in IT.... people usually give me odd looks when I say that. 

I was a secret geek for much of my younger life. Playing my ZX Spectrum 48k in my bedroom like a good little geek gal! Traded up through the various home pc incarnations 286, 386, 486, 586, pentium (woo!)... and fast forward to today I run a decentish PC gaming rig and looking to upgrade my GPU to a Nvidia 1080 with a 4k monitor to match... I saw this video of Doom in 4k and I was sold....! ;)


So... I will post mainly DBA stuff..... some other geeky type stuff that I like..... and more than likely star wars stuff.....
