His Royal Dryness, The Duke of Cork

Direct Cars traffic lights down last night (about 8:30pm).  The tram just honked and scattered the frightened motorists.

Had a weird scenario where two mapping sites stopped working.  They use Google Maps API version 3.9 and are currently static (ie there were no current changes being made to the site).  One day, the InfoWindow used to display information about a google marker stopped displaying the info window.  No script errors, nothing had changed in code for 3 or 4 months, and had been working fine until then. I finally tracked it down and changed the following line :- goInfoWindow.content = tsLabel; and instead wrote it as :- goInfoWindow.setContent(tsLabel); and the InfoWindow then works fine. I was unable to find others experiencing this problem, and couldn't see any notes on Google's site.  I thought I would post this so that others might find it and benefit.  Why using the infoWindow.content property would stop working, I have no idea.  At least infoWindow.setContent works without too much extra effort.

Look North mentioned the lights aren't working at Waterthorpe. Assume they are the Direct Cars ones.

I keep losing the link to this, so I am posting it here so I can find it in future. http://reviews.cnet.co.uk/desktops/how-to-turn-your-raspberry-pi-into-an-xbmc-media-centre-50008599/

Traffic lights out at Shortbrook Friday on way home from work.  Working again by 7pm bizarrely.

Shortbrook traffic lights down on way home from work. Weather snowy and a bit cold.

Below are my links to our videos, photos and the tracks.  I couldn't work out how to reliably link to my AlpineReplay stats.
