So just a couple of additions to the bar this week, one day I'll get around to updating the full inventory - and one very happy week I'll get around to updating all my tasting notes :)
Oh and a quick update to the 'Grail Items' list on the blog - needless to say I've joined the crowd hunting the whisky unobtanium which is Pappy Van Winkle’s Family Reserve 20yr so I'll be spending less time correcting IT vendor's crud, whilst I search the planet for (the only?) decent Bourbon around...
Laters...
Discussions ranging from enterprise technology, technology architecture, cloud infrastructure, storage, and data-centre infrastructure to TVRs, motorsport and sports in general. Expect general grumpiness, frequent rants, and plenty of complaints & challenges re vendor FUD and hype. Frequently heard shouting "show me the requirements, TCO & ROI"...

Still Here :)
Well contrary to popular belief (or is that wishes), I'm still around!
Just to prove it, I've done a brief update to the bar http://www.grumpystorage.com/p/bar.html to reflect this month's new whisky additions... When I get chance I'll do a full stock-take and update it properly.
Needless to say I'm still very much involved in large scale global enterprise IT infrastructure, services and cloud - but feel less inclined to shout about it nowadays (more of that in another blog post).
In off-topic areas, we just spent another superb night at Midsummer House in Cambridge, not leaving until 01:30 with excellent service... And the same weekend I seem to have acquired a rather special artwork by James Mylne (warning link includes 'artistic image' http://www.flickr.com/photos/27723218@N00/4080656190/in/set-72157622621453519) - needless to say my wife & bank manager are giving me funny stares at the moment...
Oh and I've taken up tennis (in order to try and catch-up to my daughter & son), so watch out for stray yellow orbs flying in random directions!
More soon :)
