The Blog of Leonard Challis
I’ve recently been tasked with taking a paper-based system online; a classic use-case for a billion and one programs before it. One of the (legal) requirements of the system is that it must be able to produce the paper-based version of the system, in case the users have to produce it at any given time. [...]
I’m a couple of days late to this news, but Three has quietly popped out a press release regarding their stance on 4G LTE. As you will have seen from the mind-numbingly cringe-worthy adverts with Mr Bacon, EE (Everything Everywhere, the [...]
I’m fond of Apple products. They’re not perfect, but for me they’re the closest to being so. I don’t like to get caught up in the fan-boy wars that you see the comments of posts riddled with, if someone prefers an alternative brand, brilliant, go do that quietly. But what I do want to share [...]
It’s been quiet around here recently! A lot has been happening, mind, I’ve been swamped with projects, the biggest one getting this feller up and running…
My wife and I welcomed our son in to the world on the 11/12/12 (tell me about it) and we’re absolutely thrilled to be inundated with nappies, baby wipes [...]

I cast my memory back well over a decade ago, before the turn of the millenium, when I was a young, innocent boy, just getting in to computers. I was sleeping over at a friend’s house, who had a Sony Playstation. We certainly couldn’t afford one of these consoles, but I could spend hours at [...]
To skip the moaning, you can go straight to the too long; didn’t read part.
Kingston Communications seem to be have been redefining their own destiny over the last couple of years, by improving their products and customer service. As someone who’s only been living in Hull on and off for [...]
One of the more unfortunate things I have to do is work with WampServer. Fair enough, the bulk is just standard Apache/MySQL/PHP configuration, but when it comes to support, available resources and just generally having to work in such a limited operating system, it can be a little depressing. Luckily not everything is impossible in [...]
Those who have seen my previous posts know I am a huge fan of Dropbox. If you’ve been living in a microwave for the last five years and aren’t lucky enough to be using, or low and behold, heard of it, yet, Dropbox is a backup [...]
