<5 hours sleep two nights in a row is not good for me. Must learn to stop playing with photos and servers.

Have a look at http://teddysphotos.co.uk though!

Wow I don't feel the cold normally but it's very cold today and foggy.

Might be the first day I refer wearing only a short sleeved shirt.

Well, we went along to the Three Horseshoes in Feltham to their Tuesday Night Quiz Night, and came second last with 34 points.

So that was not as good as we usually do, but we avoided last place, just!

Too many questions in areas I know nothing about, and the guy running it said this was an easy quiz. Not that easy!

Oh well, maybe if we go next week it’ll be easier.

Current Mood: sleepy sleepy

Today I found a new program for my iMac, MAC-Journal. What I like about it most from a first look, is that I can write Journal entries and then post them to several different blogs if they apply.

Them by simply adding tags, I can show which entries apply to which blogs or web sites, looks really neat and simple, rather than having to maintain all the lists separately.

Of course, I am sure it will have short-comings, most things seem to, but for now it looks worth trying out, and putting back some blogs I had removed.

Watch this space.......

You could always peek at http://teddysphotos.co.uk where I have been playing.

Only two photo sets at the moment, but more to come.

No instructions at this point, because I want to see if how to view the gallery is intuatuve

Hint. Left Click to zoom in on a photo, then arrow keys or left click again. OK so its a BIG hint.

Do they fit on your screen?

Well done! From a choice of two you didn't elect the complete buffoon unlike your last attempt. Now please get over it and try and focus your minds on not fucking up anything for 4 years?

Rated by who I hear you ask, ME THAT’S WHO!

I have today sat indoors waiting for my engineer to arrive, to fix an intermittant fault that affects only my broadband (apparently). Now when I say if affects me, I’m certain its not just me because they have cancelled yet another appointment without telling me because it was an “area” fault.

It seems that they feel the need to tell you that if you are not home when the engineer calls, that they will charge you £50. However when you call them at 8:15 to check the engineer IS coming out and its confirmed and then you call them at 12:05 to claim YOUR £50 for them not arriving, thaey aren’t able to provide it.

They have offered me some money for loss of service, but nothing so far for appauling lack of respect and incompetence in cancelling my call without informing me, for a second time! As you can probably tell I’m quite frustrated at this point, and I’m hoping venting here (and every other site I can find to paste this onto) will make me feel a little happier.

I have been given an address to write to in order that I may claim further compensation for my inconvenience, so we will see what comes of that, I’ll post the results here. My feeling currently is that although generally the service that they offer me is good, should they not be willing to provide compensation (and lets face it I’m not asking for a lot) my principles will force me to get a BT phone and sign up with Sky.

"Have you locked your keys in the car?

Does your car have remote keyless entry?

This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone.

Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock.

Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk)."


I tried this earlier this evening and it does actually work and unlocked our car. I was quite surprised. But it made me wonder, someone could use your keys and make a call on their cellphone, and empty your car of any valuables, or steal it even. A bit worring!

Only works at home by boosting the signal a little I guess as it didn't work when I tested it from work to home.
