My good friend, and ex-colleague, Stephen has launched his own website. He actually launched it on December the 1st but I’ve neglected to mention until now. Like a hawk, Stephen has unearthed some fascinating information. This morning I have been enlightened as to why I must turn off my mobile phone at the petrol station […]

Last night I watched “The Great Reality TV swindle” on Channel Four. A mental case in his mid-20s managed to trick 30 people into believing they would make a £100,000 in a year on his TV show that didn’t actually exist. The contestants gave up their jobs, homes and family for this complete load of […]

Had the annual Christmas party last night: Beer, bowling and a banquet at the Milton Keynes Snowdome. I had trouble getting treble figures on either game. But my fascination with the machine that resets the pins led me delve into How Stuff Works to become enlightened. I paid for my portion of a meal using […]

New Emap men’s mag Word is to launch next year. According to Media Guardian it will contain music, books, film and new technology, but emphatically not “girls in their pants” or celebrity culture. Yeah yeah, we’ll see!

The 2D TV ad may have been banned but the Internet still thrives with quality Bush piss-taking. Thanks: Shay.

These winter months always leave me feeling nostalgic for my miss-spent youth. How pleased was I to find C64.com? Very. Relive classic 80s computer games such as Hunchback, Outrun, Afterburner, Rick Dangerous, Bruce Lee and Dizzy using a simple C64 emulator. I’m hooked.

A highly amusing post on What Do I Know tells the hilarious tale of a video recorder that automatically records gay-themed TV programmes (much to the annoyance of some owners). One owner has started to video lots of war themed programmes to set his video recorder straight! Classic.

The funny O2 advert that says “Milton Keynes: Don’t Go there” is to be recalled. There’s been outrage about it by local MK residents who find it offensive. I live in Milton Keynes and don’t mind the advert at all. But then, I don’t want to live in Milton Keynes so I’m slightly biased. The […]
