Gadgets

Now for anyone who knows me knows that I love gadgets in a big way and i just read on the bbc this comment and now know why I love buying and need to have the newest gadget on show..

"

"It's all about the Scalextric set your mother didn't buy you when you were a child. Now you can buy your own."

The toy shop might have been a disappointment all those years ago, but now you've got your own credit card and you're at the top of your own gift list. And if you really, really want it, you can have it."

from the bbc news Marketing expert at the Henley Management College, David James, http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/6276910.stm

Can you help me out here???


A bizarre thing happened to me on my way back from work, a big juicy worm dropped right onto my windscreen.

Now how could it have got there?

Well I have a few suggestions, maybe,

It was on holiday and was on its way back aboard a plane and suddenly the door in the plane blew out and sucked the worm right out and it fell to its death onto my windscreen.

Maybe, it is an adrenaline freak and was practicing its jumping skills after climbing up a handy nearby tree.

Maybe, it was messing about with a firework and he got his shirt caught on the rocket and was flung up into the air.

Maybe, it was practicing on his pogo stick and suddenly a gust of wind blew him off it right into me.

Maybe, his wife flung him out and threw him that hard he went so high and because he doesn't have wings he couldn’t avoid the unfortunate events about to hit him square in the face.

Now my wife says a bird picked it up and dropped him but I told her not to be daft, "woman they make up so much mince sometime don’t they.. tch tch "

Anyways could you let me know what you think happened??? Its totally baffling me, just add it to my comments page

Paulo Nutini

Me, the wife and a few others including scottso, sarah and christine...and her two friends all went to the Carling Academy tonight to watch Paulo Nutini and he was brilliant..


Paulo's voice is great and we all thouroughly enjoyed ourselves, we did hear that he was always pished when he was singing but i think it is all part of the act, but what an act it was...

its great to see people from close to you doing so well, me and scotso were stood next to his sister and her friends all night who were thouroughly enjoying themselves too..


Carling academy was a great wee venue as well nice and close and the sound was great..


well done Paulo, Paisley is proud of you...


he is also featured on my website




or you can read more on his website http://www.paolonutini.com/

St MIrren FC

Took Junior squiro to Love street last night to watch this seasons crunch relegation decider "well it could be" between dunfermiline and St Mirren.

Well one word to describe St Mirren DREADFUL

there was no heart, no skill and the 10 and a half thousand fans that turned up to cheer on the saints were no better, i was talking to one guy who said this was the best atmosphere he ever seen at love street, well i can tell you that he was talking crap, i used to be a loyal saints fan in the 80's and we had a lot better nights and were a lot more supportive than those guys last night.

Now i cant really blame the fans as there really was nothing to cheer about and maybe the nerves were more to do with the fans not being as loud as they should have.

I really hope St Mirren can survive in the top flight this year as I have a soft spot for them and Paisley needs a team that is doing well, if Paisley is doing well usually St Mirren are doing well too, both go hand in hand as far as im concerned.

I just wish there was some passion and heart from the St Mirren players and gave the fans something to shout about and for the packed crowd that was there last night if they won or at least tried they would maybe have won some new fans, but now most of the crowd have though exactly how i am thinking right now.. Total Sh**e

Ive got a hole in my head and my brain is leaking


Last night my wife had a gruesome job to do "and she loved it" what was it you ask??

I have had a sebaceous cyst on my head for more than a year now, the doctor says dont worry about it, but it was getting bigger all the time so sometimes it was quite uncomftorble especially when it started talking back to me.....

over the last few weeks it had started to become infected and im sure that my health suffered at the same time.

so my wife has a very strange habbit of squeezing spots "she is in the beauty industry" and was loving every minute of squeezing the goo from my head, and all of a sudden a big white sack popped out of my head yeugh horrible.

It looked like a small ball of wax shaped like a pea with a small root on the end. today i feel pretty good and my head is actually flat.

anyways i thought i should share this with you, hope your having your breakfast at the same time he he ...

1and1 internet technical support dont give a dam


This is my recent email to 1and1.co.uk technical support, who over the last few weeks have been driving me crazy, I am on the verge of F*****g going mental with them.

In my opinion they dont listen and dont want to I only have three servers and an exchange account with them, a lot for some but for these guys I am little and not to be seen nor heard as long as I pay them my money they dont care..

If anyone is thinking of going with 1and1 dedicated servers DONT the servers are good but these guys support is shocking.

anyway here we go
-------

Sometimes the way that you treat your customers is verging on the diabolical

Tonight I have a problem with email not being delivered from my root server, so I try the usual, reboot the server – restart the services – see if there is a mail blockage etc but nope nothing out of the ordinary.

So I decide to phone your support which at 2100 hours UK time goes through to the US

My problem is that I can send mail from one server to another and also to my exchange account “internally in 1and1” but no mail is arriving at any outside email i.e yahoo, hotmail, any other domain name etc..


I explain this to the support personnel, who says its not our problem it must be with your server “now this happens a lot when I speak to one of you guys” now how can it be my server when it is leaving the server to go to another server “no settings have changed since it was last working and it was working well”..

What do we pay our money for every month??? What is the point of you guys if you don’t even want to help?

I run an IT support company and when a client says they have a problem I try and find the root of the problem, providing them with a service, not telling them its nothing to do with me…

I have also been passed from pillar to post on my request for the termination of my windows server, now I have said time and time again it does not work for my company’s needs so I would like it shut down “I am quite willing to pay for the contract to be terminated” BUT NO ONE LISTENS…

What is happening am I just small fry and you don’t want to waste your valuable time on me??? For a good few years I had passed my compliments onto many a person who now have servers with you guys, but this will be stopping from now on and I will be saying what a dam shambles you guys are, you don’t listen and you don’t answer any support requests, so why should anyone go with you?? I wonder.

I only have two small problems and want them answered. 1 why are emails not reaching an external source and 2. when can my question on my windows server be answered to a satisfactory result?

I will also be putting this email on my blog, emailing internet journalists and magazines and also trying to generate support for people to stand up to your lack of respect for the small trader, you should be held accountable some way..

As you can see I am raging at what I see is a disgrace.
