Trump and Women
One thing I have learnt from turning into a history nerd is that there are very few people, if any in history who have no redeeming features or whose every decision is a wrong one, or whose every decision has a negative consequence. more …

Reporting Services Integrated Mode Error
I was getting pretty recently a problem with Reporting Services Integrated Mode with SharePoint 2010, it was this … I’d set up SSRS to work with Kerberos Authentication in SharePoint 2010 Integrated Mode and it all seemed to be working perfectly in that reports rendered through SharePoint worked perfectly.

As I blogged yesterday that I have been renewed as a SharePoint MVP I got to wondering why it is I love working with SharePoint? When I say I work with SharePoint, several of my compatriots in the UK Community look at me with pity, shake their head or say things like “Oh God!” or… more …

Why I loved the Royal Wedding …
Today’s royal wedding for me was a bit of a surprise. I am unashamedly a monarchist and a proud Englishman, but weddings to me are normally always overdone. When I got married it was in a registry office and afterwards we went down the pub … Grateful though I was for the extra bank… more …
