OY! Not “dun”…It should read “FUN”….LOL!

LOL, LOL…I don’t have a clue to any of the things you mentioned…I am very behind the times here….BUT, I did notice the name BELKIN over on the left….One of my oldest friends in the world, now dead, was named Belkin….! What is that for?

I like your idea of a Blogger Hosted Oscar thingy for next year….How would you go about it? It could be dun! And a “virtual” Oscar Party at CQ’s??? (I’m sure she will love me volunteering her…lol…)

[chuckle] Original stickers but could do with :
New trackpad,
New cd drive
New battery
More memory

It’s a tired old thing but it’s still good for web browsing and iTunes 🙂

You should also mention the game Bejeweled Deluxe 2….then lots of people will come to your blog looking for ways to cheat on this game. I get annoyed by the number of hits I get because of the fact that I play Bejeweled…and so many people try to cheat on this game (odd, considering how simple it is and what enjoyment that would take out of it).

I am impressed that your stickers have stayed in place. Enjoy your new toy. 🙂

I’m quite impressed with the latest toy acquisition … I wrote here that I’d managed to break my satnav (I blame old age). I thought it would cost me a lot more than £25 to fix but Amazon managed to surprise me there.

Picked it up this morning and promptly went stir crazy at work wanting to have a play with it. Trouble is, it has to be near a window to see satellites, these don’t work too well indoors. The new toy is the box on the left that’s caught my flash. It talks to the iPaq on the right, which has the satnav software installed. The graph on the pic shows how well the receiver is seeing the satellites, when it can see about 3-4 it can get a position fix.

I had a chance to have a play on the way home, after bouncing off the walls at work. Was quite impressed to have Ms Whiplash on the SatNav barking orders even before I’d gotten out the car park … That’s fast – especially for a fresh receiver 🙂

Other bits in the pic (it should expand into something bigger on a click) are :

• My laptop that’s 6 years old now … still with its shop stickers !
• iTunes showing what I was listening to 🙂
• Evidence of how cluttered this place is …
• One of my guilty secrets.

The gps unit is a BlueNext unit, ordered on the 23rd from Amazon UK, with the Post Office “we-tried-to-deliver” card coming through the door on the 26th. I’m hoping it succeeds its road test over this coming weekend …

Also worth a peek :

Disintegrating wind turbine caught on camera – from The Register. Spectacular !

It was good in the early days of that folder, the meet ups in the on-site bar were fun.

Craziequeen holding court of course 🙂

I occasionally peek at the info that the hit counter will give me …

I’ve noticed a decent number of hits come from people looking at Google for “Indoor Cricket Tactics”. I think I’ve been disappointing people who were looking for something profound in how to win at indoor cricket cos all they’re getting is : Indoor Cricket Tactics.

I just so happen to be the number one result when plugging those three words into Google. Muahaha. I guess if I write Indoor Cricket Tactics enough into this post, Google will send people to this post instead 🙂 (Yes – I be evil !)

Sorry folks looking for the secrets to Indoor Cricket Tactics, the place we played was a little small and the rules a bit more friendly than what you’re used to … Fun game though, great work out.

PS The hypercompetitive people seem to be Aussies – most of the searches are from www.google.com.au. Good hunting people – if you’re researching the tactics, that means you’re taking it seriously enough to deserve an advantage over the rest of ’em 🙂

[whispers] of course, you have to remember, I was also the owner of said Forum…….[chuckle]
