Where in the world?
2009-01-25 17:21:00 Where in the world do PC World get their and produce their trading practices.?Ordinarily I wouldn't think about approaching them for a sale, especially not of a new Mac, yet they had an excellent deal online.I decided to call Customer Services to ensure the deal and the unit were available in our local store. (I didn't think of purchasing online as the site states they do not deliver Macs (!) and you'd have to collect from store).Imagine our annoyance when we spent 45 minutes to get to the store only to find they didn't offer the deal. No matter how much I quizzed the acne riddled salesman about the deal online, he refused to even admit it existed and insisting on trying to sell me some crappy in store offer.This followed a chat/banter where he proceeded to tell me how often Mac's broke down and how I'd definitely need the protection cover if I wanted to use it long term.If I wasn't sure about purchasing this particular model I would have almost certainly have changed my mi...

Early treat
2009-01-24 13:32:00 My birthday is not until the first but I had a pleasant surprise last night when Richard gave me my birthday present early.When we first got together one of the first gifts Richard gave me was a lovely watch which I have worn with love and pride ever since.Sadly the clasp went completely on the way to work this week so I borrowed Richard's everyday watch to tide me over.Imagine my surprise when he arrived home last night with a fantastic new Seiko Kinetic watch from him and Miss B. I am really very touched and very happy with his choice as it's a lovely watch and the fit is very good.I don't like flashy watches, I like watches that do what they are supposed without shouting that it is expensive or can call international rescue at the press of a button!My original Seiko kept brilliant time and I am sure this will do the same.Now I can continue to think of my baby whenever I look at my watch.It's been a long week this week (especially as I was dumped from the Vermont trip at the ...

Have you packed yet?
2009-01-18 10:31:00 As you know last week I mentioned my work trip to Montreal and Vermont.This week it seemed like it may not happen as a number of things happened within the company which could have prevented me from going. The decision was taken late in the week and I am still jetting off to Montreal and then onto Vermont on Wednesday.I can't help but notice the weather reports in the USA at the moment as Vermont has been suffering temperatures of -28 (c).I have managed to get some extra layers together to help me beat the chill but I am sure I will only need this when I am between the office and the hotel. It has been an interesting exercise online though a I have been reading tweets from Burlington Twitters and it's interesting to see what people think of the climate.The weather for the UK is set to change to snow again but I doubt it will ever be anything on the scale they get in VT.It's going to be an odd week, an exciting week and a tiring week. I know I am going to miss my baby and Miss ...

2009-01-15 20:10:00 London - Pubs & Bars - Bars - Cocktail BarsOK I will try to be constructive but it's difficult.The good - My main of Steak and Ale pie was very tasty (very hot) and the portions were great. The gravy was thick and the pie had lots of flavour (and winter veg).The bad - 10 of us went to Mustard for a Thank You lunch. We booked in advance, attended at mid day on a Thursday and were the first to arrive.We didn't take long to order but were informed that as we were last to order (two other tables of two had since arrived), and there were so many of us (!) there would be a 20 minute wait for our meals (all one course).We decided to suck it and see... what a mistake!50 minutes later our food arrived, even our request for something to nibble were lazily greeted with a miniscule bread basket consisting of three rolls (for 10!).So the food eventually arrived and my colleague ordered Risotto (vegetarian). When the food was served they came out with Sausage and Mach - no one ordered i... More About: London
Too busy to think of a title?
2008-03-08 22:02:00 It's been an interesting day. We popped down to Brent Cross today as I wanted to get some things for my conference trip to Greece on Monday. I got myself some shirts and the odd pair of trews. I must confess to man handling a Mac Book Air but to be honest I prefer the Pro. I did get some new trainers too but that was during another shopping trip in St Albans. Our big purchase today was our new 32" LCD TV. Richard has been pestering me for one since Christmas and to be honest we got such a good set at an excellent price, it was too good an opportunity to miss. Think we'll have a quiet day tomorrow. I am staring down the eyes of a chaotic week... I need to pack etc (and we all know how long it takes a gay man to do that!). Not sure I am going to get a Trunk Cast together either, it's yet another things on the list. I'll see what I can do ...At least I can spend some time at the airport watching BBC iPlayer on my iPod Touch. Thanks to the fab beta and unrestricted access through ... More About: Title , Busy

What a day!
2008-03-04 19:04:00 What a day! I cannot believe the chaos caused this morning by First Crapital Disconnect!There was signal failure at Cricklewood which led to all the fast services being cancelled or disrupted. I get the slow serviced anyway as it guarantees me a seat. Of course by the time we were a couple of stations in some loud mouth took it on himself to stop other passengers getting on due to the train being crowded. Fair enough, gallant I guess but there was room for one or two extra people. What happened next defies logic... A passenger trying to get on the train does so only to be pushed off by the passenger om the train. He gets pulled off by the passenger outside a a fight breaks out on the platform - what a performance! I cannot believe people act like this in this day and age.It just proves that high ticket prices to put people off using trains at peak times does not work - especially when there are such network problems. The irony is two stops later most of the "fat train" crow...

Blustry Day
More articles from this author:2008-03-01 15:29:00 It's been a very blustery couple of days - we lost the bin last night (thankfully it was only as far as the end of the garden). I don't quite understand the weather at the moment, one minute it's really dry and mild the next it's freezing cold or raining heavily. It's very unseasonal for February (especially it's now March!).I published Trunk Cast 125 this morning and it's a particularly long show - I decided to include a full run down of my thoughts of the new Janet album Discipline. Be sure to have a listen as I have included the odd sneaky sound bite too.We're having a quiet weekend following our trip home last weekend. I am off to Greece Monday after next so I had the time to pop into town to look for a few bits to take with me - not sure I achieved anything though having only come back with some socks and a shirt! I must be getting too picky. That or the latest fashions are just hideous. You either look like an Emo, a goth or some middle aged sad surfing type - w... 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 |
