Ugh! The post Christmas weirdness continues. Emily wanted to go shopping but it was the last possible thing I wanted to do. Shops rammed full of people, cars fighting for spaces, people grabbing items all over the place? No way. Not for me. After my experience last year I didn’t fancy going into another shop [...]

When did Christmas TV go crap?
What the flying CHUFF is going on with TV at the moment?! I remember, when I was a kid, looking forward to the Christmas break for all the Christmas specials, all the big movies and the comedy shows. What did we get this year? Fup all. That’s what we got. I’ve got some time off [...]
allofmp3.com tells US record industry to go and jump
I like allofmp3.com. It lets you get full, proper MP3 files legally (well, according to Russian law). Most music download sites out there will strap the music down so that they can only be played on one device or one computer. It’s highly annoying, as I found out recently to my cost. I bought loads [...]
The Santa Ambulance IN THE FLESH!
You’ve already seen a couple of blog posts here regarding the Christmas Ambulance. A local charity in my home town of Burntwood have had an old ambulance donated to them and they’re currently touring the area in it. This alone may seem strange enough, but it gets even weirder when you see the thing in [...]
Christmas Car Wash Blues
It seems that pretty much everybody in the UK is trying to get their car washed today. It’s just two days to Christmas and everyone wants their car to be clean for Christmas Day when their parents or friends see them …. and their car.. I’m actually typing this blog whilst sat in the queue [...]
Jordan and Andre – a force of evil
As you may or may not know, Katie Price and her husband Peter Andre have just released a truely painful new album called “A Whole New World“. The proceeds from this will, according to the information I have, go to good causes. It’s for this reason alone that the album appears to be selling (seriously, [...]
Merry Christmas CoolSmartPhone Readers!
No doubt most of you are preparing to drink copious amounts of alcohol at various Christmas parties whilst embarassing yourself by getting a little too friendly with the receptionist. Here at CoolSmartPhone towers the level of work is already deteriorating so now is probably the best time to thank you lot for sticking with us [...]
DIE HARD!
The ultimate “bloke film”.. Oh yes people… it’s coming back… Yippee Kiiyay Mother Hubbard… (The picture on the right has nothing to do with this by the way, I just thought it was funny) ;)
Land that plane, even without wheels!
Here’s a video of a plane landing without any landing gear. To make matters worse it’s a “prop” plane so, as it heads towards the runway you’re thinking what a terrible mess those propellors are going to make as they spin around.. Except… This has to be possibly the most relaxed landings I’ve ever seen. [...]
Christmas drivers
Honestly, people are insane at this time of year. Mostly it’s when they’re driving – last night I was coming up to a roundabout in the fog when, out of no-where, some brake lights appeared in front of me. The car then moved onto the roundabout, indicating right, then turned left, almost into me. It [...]
