So, two posts done – I might actually be serious about this! For those of you just re-joining us, I covered the various why’s about my prolonged absence and reasons why I have chosen now to return to blogging in part 1 of this series. It was an emotional affair which was probably as much […]
Category: Random Musings
Random musing along my technical travels.
In from the cold, and looking to the future – Part 1
Wow!!, has it really been almost four years since I last sat down and wrote anything for telnetport25.com? What have I been doing? Why return now? What are you going to be writing about? – these are the questions that I hear no one ask! What have I been doing? Probably easier to really ask […]

The Data Centre – the final road and completion…
As posted here and here during the mid point of this year I was taken “off radar” from a lot of my Exchange endeavours to work on the design, tendering and technical project management of the re-fit of my companies data centre. Considering the amount of work that was involved (as we had to rebuild […]
Data Centre Refurbishment – the Armageddon move
As per my post here – some of you will be aware that my lack of posting has mainly been down to my work on my companies Data Centre. As mentioned before as we have had to do this in situ (where all of the existing server and Communications infrastructure is still in place) which […]
Where have I been and what am I doing (do you care?–well I am going to bore you with it anyway!)
