On Friday I accepted a new job, so on the 17th December I depart my current IT support slash developer role to move into a full time Senior Cold Fusion Developer role with a huge UK company, gone are the days of fixing computers and responding to support requests! Yeah!!!!!

Congrats, John. Back when I was a network admin, I used to say that the best network was a network with no users.
I haven’t done that in any official, F/T capacity in several years; I imagine doing that plus coding must have been hard to juggle.
All code all the time is definitely the way to go.

Well done!
So I never knew that you knew so much about nuclear fission in a glass of water!

Yer a cheeky man Mr Sherwood. I’ll defend John by saying he has gained employment with a company running Allaire Cold Fusion 3.1 :p
What version did it change from Cold Fusion to ColdFusion … 4.0?

are we? I started CF on Allaire CF 3.1, in fact i have the manual right in front of me now!

Thankfully not John … although it would be interesting if it was 3.1.
Ah I remember the days of CF3.1 … I had to build contrasting "library" apps in both ASP and CF3.1 for Bell College in Hamilton, Scotland as part of the criteria/decision-making to see which web technology they would go with. CF won the day and it’s still being used to this very day. Though, hopefully not 3.1
