The return of the D&D campaign: This time it's potatoes

[Wrathbone]

Wrathbone, can't you take the disk to a disk-recovery company? They charge a couple of thousand but can retrieve previously formatted data.

And if it was a result of your software backup company not telling you the backup folder had changed, I'd say you'd have a good case for sending them the bill.

The laptop's already been refurbished and sent out to someone else in the company, unfortunately. I expect there will be some choice words for the third party after the meeting today, though it could get political. I don't get paid enough to concern myself with how the powers that be handle that.

If it helps, just remember that C is a big, blue wobbly thing that mermaids live in.

Also, dog: Not a cat.

Just checking we don't have anything set up for this week that I've missed...

[Wrathbone]

Yeah, nothing this week and almost certainly next week too I'm afraid. I was only meant to be at my parents' for a week, but my dad was rushed into hospital on Friday with sepsis from a food poisoning infection which then turned to pneumonia. He was discharged yesterday and is tonnes better now, but it could take a couple of weeks to recover and my mum will need some help with stuff.

Was pretty intense for a while since his 40c temperature and ragged breathing obviously set off the covid-klaxon, but he tested negative for it.

[Sly Boots]

Oh mate, that sounds really scary. Glad he's on the mend now, but can only imagine what it's been like for you guys.

No worries about D&D, whenever you're ready.

[Wrathbone]

Cheers - we're all shattered more than anything at this point! I think I had about 3 hours of actual sleep between Thursday night and last night, so I'm operating with the twitchy demeanour of a heroin addict. My dad said the mixture of 11 types of antibiotic they put in him caused hallucinations of bouncing snowmen, which sounds exciting and terrifying.

[Wrathbone]

Right... I'm back home again, my dad's on the mend and my back's holding up, so barring any further crises (touchwood) I think I'm finally able to get back to D&D. I'm free any day but tonight this week.

[Raid]

I can do any week day but friday this week.

[Sly Boots]

Yep, reckon any day from Tue-Thurs will be fine for me.

[Mantis]

Just the Wednesday or Thursday for me seems most likely this week.

[Wrathbone]

Let's aim for Thursday then.

[Wrathbone]

Everyone still good for tonight?

[Raid]

I am.

[Sly Boots]

I don't know about 'good'. 'Chaotic good' trending to 'neutral evil' by association, I'd say

[Mantis]

Speak for yourself, still 'good' here.
