Do you not think that was your hangover? After all we were skulling pints..

to add my .02 Euro's worth.  I'm a radio ham (Ei7iG) and I've found over the
years that I'm extremely sensitive to stray RF, if I use a mobile phone for
longer than about 15 minutes I'll have a splitting headache for a few hours
afterwards... 

Question on a different subject... Have any of you ever rigged up something to
notify you (using a modem) when a machine is in trouble or anything like that?

Just wondering...
