Cup Of Coffee

Oohh, here’s a good reason why eBay listings should be typed out carefully. If only he’d added that extra “P” he could be sitting on half a million bucks right now. Shame… Here’s the first eBay link for some beer brewed in 1852 – note this missing “P” in “Allsops” – it should be “Allsopps”, [...]

I popped into a bakery called “Cooks” yesterday for some lunch. Now, this in itself seems like a contradiction in terms. However, their slogan seems to be “Real Coffee”. I snapped this photo and uploaded it Flickr gallery from my phone (by the way, it’s really easy to do that, just get yourself a gallery, [...]

Wehay !! If you’ve been reading the grief I’ve had with moving house and having no phone line, then you’ll no doubt be up to speed with my groaning about the phone company. To sum up, we moved house, the phone company (OneTel) messed everything up and we ended up waiting a full month to [...]

I’ve got to give huge credit to the advertising guy who thought this one up. 5000 worth of 10 and 20 notes got dropped around the streets of London with these green stickers on (which you could remove, obviously). Did they really do this though? I know what I’d do if I was asked to [...]

Believe me, you do NOT want to get into trouble on this course otherwise you’ll… errr.. slide off that little drop on the side of the road.. I love [...]

There’s good adverts and then there’s bad adverts. I’d like to show you a couple that I’ve found recently because, when I do get to sit my arse on the sofa after doing DIY, I only seem to get adverts on the TV. First up is one of my faves, the edge.co.uk advert. It’s almost [...]

some Chinese couple have decided to name their child “@” … I guess that would make their email address @@chineseisp.com ? Link – Syndney Morning Herald

I absolutely love the Weebls Stuff – the cartoons are excellent (Magical Trevor especially). Here’s the “Blimp” cartoon. …. Excellent. You’ll be singing along in minutes..

OK guys, prepare for a rant of quite epic proportions. We’ve moved house recently, as you’ll probably know. We didn’t move far, so we requested to get our number moved to the new address. Wind back the clock a few months – I received a call from a nice lady from a company called TalkTalk [...]
