Saturday running

I did a wonderful 5k on Saturday, it was a slow 6.30 pace which is very very slow but it was good to be out there. I am going to aim to get under 40 minutes for the Sportsword 5 mile which is in May.

Warning - some loser does something

I was sent this link by Bren a few days ago and I dismissed it at first but it just came back to me as I was checking the news on Sky News.

I really dislike (I'm avoiding the word hate) so called comedians who stage stunts like this. It just annoys me because it is such attention seeking nonsense.

It reminds me of the 'comedy terrorist' Aaron Barschak. Don't worry the article I've linked to is by Jon Ronson so it will be intriguing

What have I become

I saw an article about James Bond stamps over on Michele's blog. I then checked it out and purchased a set. Does this mean I have become a stamp collector? A philatelist? What will my mother think?

Wordpress!

It is really easy to use and I got it set up on Redpages without much fuss. So keep and eye out to see what is happening over there. If I ever get to do anything!

No support

Don't you hate when you are working on something and you are stuck because of a support issue and there is no-one there past 5 o'clock. I was installing wordpress and I was having problems with the database. My control panel hasn't been working properly so I'm stuck here not able to do what I wanted tonight.

Of course I can get in touch tomorrow and get it sorted but I want it NOW!!!

To all of those with too much business...

Over the last few months I have come across a couple of occasions where some businesses were too busy for my business. In one case a painter was too busy to even call my mother even though he had arranged to do so on a number of occasions.

Today I rang a bike shop to get my bike serviced and was asked a few questions about my bike and then he said, we are too busy, we're only taking in bikes we have sold. Charming! Why did he ask me all the questions about the bike?

There will be times ahead when you won't have as much business and the people you have treated right will come back again and again, so have a bit of foresight and at least call us back, or tell us straight up if you can't take our business

1944

When was the last person convicted of witchcraft in the UK. 1944! Can you "Adam & Eve" it? Check out all about Helen Duncan here.

It is very strange and scary how close minded the law still is. For all we know there are lots of crazy laws ready to convict people.

Next they will say you can't kill people!
