I thought I would write that ("woo, my memory has been dispatched") here since it is rather funny if one does not understand geekspeak.
Also today; my speakers (Phillips 5.1 400W (max) flat speaker system) I have finally returned, since they could not replace the surround-sound audio cable that was rather unique to the speaker system. Today, they ( Read more... )

We have gremlins; Aaron and I, in our flat. See; one day it was discovered that the grill had been used. Aaron was convinced it was me, I was convinced it was he. Both of us stubbornly refused to wash it up, until this week, when I realised I needed it to cook sausages.
*mmmm sausages*
Before cleaning it I did make a point of mentioning to ( Read more... )

You don't want me as a customer, really, you don't. Getting money out of me is like getting blood out of a stone.
Last week I had Bulldog refund us £20. Today, I got Powergen to refund us £11.
The former reduces our 8-meg broadband & phone rental from £15 pcm to only £12 pcm.
The latter reduces our combined electricity & gas bill from £20.50 pcm ( Read more... )

I am so very tired this weekend, damnit!
We got our first gas bill, after having lived here for nearly eight months! I have been bugging them for ages, meh. Thankfully my estimate as to how much we should be paying was right; it comes to less than £25pcm for BOTH electricity & gas.

Alas, after the computer booted up, I nodded off. And thus I was awoken by angellic voices gently ( Read more... )

11:15am - IT IS SUNNY. There are photographs that must be taken. Bye.
(* As soon as I can bloody get a shower. Heh.)
12pm - All set...
I have ready two fully charged batteries (i.e. enough for 5 odd hours); 1GB of memory cards; one super duper camera; one mini tripod; one BLAZING SUN; one happy me.
2pm - Damn, ran out of memory. Uploading via ( Read more... )

Sunday was a nil-day, due to recovering from Saturday night. Instead, I set about finding out the identities of people I had met the night before, which was not very easy for a couple of them.
I was meant to do washing up & clean the kitchen over the weekend. (Our kitchen is curently "slightly messy", which is a bout as bad as it gets.) I never ( Read more... )
