What a wonderful surprise! This morning a parcel arrived at my door – quite unexpectedly – and much to my surprise, when I opened said parcel a book that I pre-ordered a couple of weeks ago arrived…despite the publication date not being until the 20th August – making the delivery two whole days early…..

….which of course means that I’ve managed to get a two day head start on getting the book actually read! What has arrived then “PowerShell 2 for Dummies”, in the hope of me actually taking the time to learn something that might be of benefit.

For the uninitiated PowerShell is a scripting language designed to replace the command prompt (or DOS), but with added oomph! And it is my intention to learn a little bit of it within my #24Days holiday and when I return to work, become a scripting genius!

Of course by the time I get to the end of the book, there’s every chance that I won’t be a scripting genius, but hey, at least I’ll have given it a whirl.

More importantly though….I wonder what will arrive tomorrow from the postie?!
