So I turned 50 last Friday.
Bought myself a new barbeque and fridge for the kitchen. Old fridge is now in the backyard so I have a beer fridge in the garage and the backyard.
Saturday was a barbie and piss up in the backyard. I survived and decided I should help myself to more on Sunday as I had heaps left over as people pulled out Saturday morning.
When I got up at 08:00 Sunday morning I noticed I had made a number of phone calls the night before around 18:00 to 17:00 taht lasted at least 15 minutes each. Don't remember dialling the numbers nor what I said during the conversations.
Had a great time, too bad you didn't come along.

It seems the phone calls weren't the only thing you forgot...

Probably a good thing; the key to happiness is a bad memory

Belated happy birthday.
I'd say have one on me but sounds like you already did!
I may not be that good looking, or athletic, or funny, or talented, or smart
I forgot where I was going with this but I do know I love bacon!

Just some fatherly advice, young fella':
It may be wise to have some blood work and other tests done - or at least scrub yourself down with steel wool and bleach - just in case there's something you don't remember aside from making the telephone calls.

No need to worry, been married 27 years, the Missus was there and I wasn't in trouble the next morning so all was good.

Beat you by a month and a half. ![Beer | [beer]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif)
Had a late party this weekend as well. It's on Sunday you notice your age.
Never had so many people in the house since I got married.

A large quantity of alcohol consumed, mostly but not always with company. Piss is a euphimism for alcohol.

I am working on that app at home, as a hobby...
And I am thinking to make a web site for it.
I don't expect a hug traffic, but there will be a forum, with, maybe, 10 posts a day?
Now, since I am a .NET enthusiast I am thinking of hosting the domain on Azure.
But I am a little scare of the elastic pricing....
How much will it cost me to host in on Azure on average,do you think?
[EDIT]
There seems to be a rang of things for free!
Including Website!
Database will be free for one year, fair enough...

You will know it only when you get the bill...
The Pricing Calculator for Azure[^] is seems to be so complicated (probably on purpose)...
I once run a free account (it has a time limit of a year IIRC), and was careless, so run out of the time limit and payed a nice sum of $50+ to learn it...
(To be honest others have the same lost-in-the-fog policy... With AWS you are calculating your savings, not the price )

I know what you mean. I was thinking of experimenting for a couple of home projects where an always available DB would save me a load of work in replication / reconciliation - but couldn't work out what the heck it was going to cost me so said "sod it" and didn't bother.

Is it something local here or do you have it also?
(I think that it closed the gap between school opening sales and end of year sales)
