Hey @Ryanair, my parents who are in their 70s and 80s, had accidentally downloaded the return flight boarding card instead of the outgoing ones and you charged them £110 to print them at the airport. £110 for 2 pieces of paper which took 1 minute. Shame on you – at La Sauvetat-du-Dropt, France

Starting my next adventure to add another country to my sql speaking list. This time data Saturday Croatia. Speaking on “the top 10 disasters I’ve seen as a DBA”
#DataSatOslo mange tak for en hyggelig weekend. Vi ses næste år
Ready for #DataSatOslo . First time I’ve sailed to a conference
The real reason for coming to #SQLBits , to stack up on supplies. Had a great time,, thanks to all the organisers volunteers
has anyone ever got a SQL Audit to write to the security log?
I've tried on three instances both at work and at home with no luck. And no errors
Ah, the joy of Brexit. Got a letter from PostNord. I must pay £21 in duty and taxes to receive my SQLBits goody bag (value £11)
The day after we move our database from Oracle cloud to Azure, Azure goes down. Authentication errors on every screen

Hello #Brumhour, I hope everyone is well this Sunday evening? I'm putting on a webinar on 23rd March called "The top 5 skills a #data professional needs in 2020" It's free to attend if you are working from home or not and have time come along? Any Takers? eventbrite.co.uk/e/top-5-ski…
The consultancy that persuaded me to move from the UK to Denmark has no work for me, it's not had any work for me since I arrived in August and there is no prospect of any work for me. So they have "let me go". I am a now a DBA in Copenhagen looking for work
Has anyone tried SQL 2019 External table to an Access database of Excel file on local disk? I am stuck at "Generic ODBC error: Optional feature not implemented "
