Climatron, air conditioning unit!
Since Kirsten seems to be firmly in control of our work related posts, I’ll continue to wax lyrical about the weather and temperature in here. After some long drawn out conversations with the management of the building, it was agreed that the hosting company downstairs (there un-ventilated sever room is just below us) was the cause of the tropical climate in here. After admission of blame they have agreed to rent us an air conditioning unit which arrived yesterday *whoops and claps*. Our office has a maximum capacity of 4, at a push, and as you can see from the photo the air con unit (aka Climatron) is an industrial strength behemoth. It has pop up, eyes like kit in Knightrider and quietly hums away in the corner. Safe to say, we are now cool, calm and collected.
Gareth started with UVd in 2006 when he fulfilled a placement during his degree at Bournemouth University, being excitedly drawn to the fact that the 2 directors were called Kirsten and Sarah. Suffice to say when he arrived to find Kirsten a boy and Sarah had left, he was most disappointed. Nevertheless he has stayed with us since and is now addicted to installing and utilising new fangled 'things' and puts us all to shame with his enthusiasm…. only dampened when I have to sort out his computer viruses from said activity.
