Olympic Athlete’s Village site visit

21/03/2011 – 15:10

I visited the Athlete’s Village for the London 2012 Olympic Games. Not that much to see really, it is a building site… Behind schedule of course. The accommodation is the standard basic one floor apartment divided up with temporary partitions which will be removed before it is turned into council flats.   From Olympic site [...]

FON is rubbish

03/03/2011 – 13:18

I decided to set the old FON router up before my trip to Japan this year. The idea is that you share your broadband connection via a wifi hotspot that the FON router provides and in return you can use any FON hotspot worldwide. Before going I checked coverage. FON has done a deal with [...]

Why does medication for arthritis come in packaging that is hard for people with arthritis to open?

Mitsubishi Colt squealing brakes

28/06/2010 – 21:46

A few months ago the brakes on my Mitsubishi Colt started to squeal as I was coming to a stop. It was less than a year old and due for a service in another couple of months so I decided to just wait. At first Sparshatts said on the phone they would sort it out [...]

Vistaprint update

13/02/2010 – 23:40

Vistaprint got back to me. They refunded the job and have offered to do another batch for free! I am pretty impressed by this. The order was for about £10 and I’m sure most places would just write it off (hi Weycrest). They  have requested samples from the bad batches and samples of how the [...]

Second response from the BBC re BNP hijack

10/02/2010 – 22:44

The BBC finally got back to me with a response about the BNP hijacking the Have Your Say forums: Thanks for your further e-mail. Please accept our apologies for the delay in replying. We’ve raised your concerns with those responsible for managing the Have Your Say board. They recognise the board is open to abuse [...]

Mitsubishi Colt ClearTec long term review

11/12/2009 – 23:14

When I was looking at buying a car this year I couldn’t find many blogs or forums with reviews from owners, so I am doing my bit to correct that :) I decided to look at the Mitsubishi Colt after reading some magazine reviews and checking various web sites. I was lucky enough to have [...]

61cm/24″ monitors are not quite as useful as they appear on paper

28/11/2009 – 18:11

61cm (24″) at 1920×1200 actually seems to be a somewhat less than ideal resolution now I have been living with it for a couple of years. In theory you can have two full size A4 pages on screen, but in practice you can’t because toolbars and window borders take up some space. Half the screen [...]

Life on Mars Bluray review

08/09/2009 – 23:51

I was looking forward to the high-defintion release of Life on Mars, but have been let down. The Bluray has only slightly better picture quality than the DVD. It’s not even as good as downloaded 720p, but I suppose it’s the best you can expect given that it was shot on 16mm and edited digitally [...]

Opt your web site out of Phorm / WebWise

21/04/2009 – 20:32

Phorm is being rolled out so webmasters need to opt out as soon as possible, or face having their visitors monitored. Imagine someone watching everything a visitor to your site does and then selling that information to other companies. To opt out, don’t bother with the form on their web site as they ignore it, [...]
