Uh-Oh...
So we bought a new cable that would mean our foldback didn't have to be connected by four extension leads. Which is a good idea in itself.Only we discovered that whoever assembled that cable, cabled it up wrongly (live was where earth should be and earth where live should be for all you geeks out there. So we sent 240V through somewhere where there should never be 240V...into one of the foldback channels) and therefore, when we plugged it in, there was this loud noise, and a very strong burning smell from the mixing desk. Bye bye mixing desk. :-(
Monetary donations to my manager, please.
Oh and my Mac was plugged in too, as we were going to record the service - thankfully the audio in didn't suffer. (Thank you Lord!!)

Thanks Kat for your help and support to keep the show on the road. And thanks to God for protecting us from harm. It was only equipment that was damaged, not people. Things could have been much worse. The devil and his attacks failed to stop God being worshipped and glorified at our service this morning!

Even 240v isn't enough to stop the power of Apple!!
It's only a matter of time before Steve Jobs takes over the world, I think Bill Gates is looking over his shoulder right now.
And on another Apple related topic, did you hear that at the Microsoft head office, where they emply 25,000 people, over 18,000 of them have iPods?
It's causing more than a little embarrassment in higher management, he he!!
