How to totally avoid the petrol price increases

Another 70 ($140) of petrol goes in and we’re still doing nothing about it. Sure, everyone is feeling the “pinch” but with gas and electric prices rumoured to increase yet again, I think it’s getting to the point where simply getting to work and back, eating food and trying to keep warm in your own [...]

Sorry Mr Brown, we’ve had enough

Right, I’ve had enough of this guy now. It’s time to get your coat Mr Brown. You’re barred. “We’re listening, we’re listening”, says the Prime Minister. …meanwhile average hard-working people are having to re-mortgage their homes just to get a weeks worth of shopping in.

Firefox 3 RC1 – An utterly brilliant browser

Yay. Firefox 3 RC 1 is now available to download. I’ve just installed it and it’s removed version 2 completely. It’s fast. Really, really fast. Finally, Firefox loads from the desktop in just 2 seconds! That’s way faster than any Firefox I’ve ever seen before! It renders pages like lightening. Seriously, if you ever think [...]

We had a two-car accident, yet no-one was driving.

So, another busy weekend is over. We managed to get quite a bit of stuff done – our fireplace is back in and we’ve cleaned the driveway and done lots of gardening. On Saturday we were getting a few well deserved minutes rest on the sofa when, suddenly, Em’s car alarm went off. This was [...]

West Virginia shows the world what they think

I had just have to link to this video. It covers the rather strange views of residents in West Virginia on the Presidential Elections in the USA.

Another Bushism for the collection

You’ve got to hand it to George Bush. He’s possibly the stupidest idiot alive. It’s a good job he’s not in charge of a country, else there’d be serious problems. In a recent interview he revealed that he’s given up golf in order to support the troops in Iraq. Yep, in a chat with political [...]

Waste becomes useful for Ealing residents

Good grief, the Government have actually done something right! Wembley (a football stadium in London) recently got knocked flat and a spanky new stadium has been built – imaginatively named the “New Wembley Stadium”. The rubble from the demolition had to go somewhere, so the trucks (60,000 of them, to be precise) went and dumped [...]

Sky have updated their web listings

At last! Sky TV have updated their internet TV listings. It’s about time, but it’s still pretty hidden from the main sky.com page. Why does it take so many clicks for customers to get to this? Anyway, I love it – a site that actually works – it’ll let you remote record (which is great [...]
