  Client/invoice management tool

I've been looking at many free tools but have not yet found what I am looking for. The tool needs to be webbased, programmed in PHP with MySQL as backend.
The features need to be easily accesible and contain a management system of client data, orders made by them (no fixed products) and reoccuring orders, so I get warned when I need to sed out the next invoice.
Cool, but not really needed, is a client side, where clients can see what orders they have running, which invoices are not yet payed, etc.

There are many such tools at SourceForge, but I have not yet found one that does what I want, without the hassle of larger programs.

  iRobot vacuum cleaner

iRobot released 2 new models for there vacuum cleaner.
I hear you say "So what ? Who cares ...". But the iRobot cleaners are no regular cleaners, they do the job without human intervention.
I looked at the information on there site, and the reviews on Amazon or the chatter on Slashdot, and they look pretty cool. If only they sold it in Belgium.

  Need a new PC ?

Well, I do.
I have an Athlon 600 with 128 MB of RAM at the moment. It is ancient, I know.
I have been thinking of buying a new one with Dell, the have good offers. There's only one problem. Most of there hardware is either custom made, or widely available.
I might just as well go for a clone PC again.

  Kayak news

It has been a while sice I posted some kayak news. I have alot ofit now ...

We played 2 international tournaments in August, the first being at veurne, the second Ieper.
The tournament of Veurne has only been organised once, and is rather small compared to the others, however, very enjoying. We played well and ended 4th in 2nd division, that's out of 10 teams, leaving 2 French and 1 English team in front of us.
The Ieper tournament already has a very good reputation, with 53 teams this year, it's one of the biggest tournaments in Belgium.
Our division had 28 teams fighting for the number 1 position. With some heavy matches on the first day, and better play on the second, we ended 17th, which isn't bad at all.

Some future news too. The second day of the Belgian competition is this weekend. Let's hope we can perform well there.
Also the Belgian cup is coming nearer, the weekend after the competition, on sunday. Saturday being the warmup for us at our yearly tournament at Gent.

  Moving also

All the companies I work for tend to move ...

The current one is planned to move to Groot-Bijgaarden tomorrow. Bigger offices, larger desk, more space ... Hmmm, maybe moving isn't bad at all.

There's only 1 downside. We will no longer have a company restaurant. back to sandwiches and snacks.

  Nooit grappig

Een bagagedrager op je hometrainer is nooit grappig.
Een waterdicht theezakje is nooit grappig.

Dit is maar een kleine greep uit het aanbod van Nooit Grappig
