Hi All,

This post is just a bit of fun, from things I have observed about myself recently. Feel free to add your comments. You can do this by clicking the title and then scrolling down to the comments box.

You know your getting old(er) when…

You choose clothes for comfort, rather than style.

You get back ache when you have spent too long driving.

Housemates mess starts to p*ss you off, and you wish you lived alone.

You enjoy watching Murder, She Wrote.

You’d rather have a night in the warm (watching TV or reading books) rather than going out in the cold.

So add some more on the comments section!

Take care,

Antony

Phones

Let’s get technical and up-to-date people!

My old phone is messed up. Since dropping it in the bath it is not well. It clears off menu’s and texts and I can’t hear people the first time I call them. (Have to call them back!)

So lets look at the phones on the market and see what we think, eh?

Iphone by Apple
The apple iPhone is hot stuff! Unlimited real internet, loads of Apps, beautiful software, easy to use, touch screen, the works! It does lack the bluetooth feature (which is supprising as apple developed bluetooth), the ring and text alert cant be changed and the cameras not great quality.

G1 by Google
The G1 phone has a touch screen and real internet, but is more difficult to use and the Apps look less pretty. I don’t think I want this one. It looks cheap, despite it’s cost.

N96 by Nokia
The N96 has a massive 16GB memory, sliding, brilliant camera. Most people can use nokia phones with ease (apart from me, who just can’t understand them!).

What do you think? You can comment on this blog by clicking the link, and then using the comment form.

For me, it will probably be the iPhone. I am aware of some of it’s limitations, but surely apps will be developed to combat these limitations?

Blog soon,

Antony

Christmas Cards

Hello All,

If you are pagan, you will know there is a lack of affordable Yule cards. I’m not sure if it’s because of it being a niche market or to do with pagans views on saving the environment.

Anyway, the majority of my family and friends are Christian and as such send Christmas cards.

I have got underway with my address book. I’ve found wonderful friends that for various reasons (distance, time, etc.) I only seem to communicate with once a year. It’s such a shame that these wonderful people, many of whom where a big part of my life have moved on, as have I.

Does this happen to you? I imagine it’s just part of life. People moving on.

The Accidential Bump

Today the road was covered in ice, sneakily covered by snow. I have never driven in ice before. Nore was I to do so for long.

I got to the end of my estate where the usual little hill looked like a mountain. I saw a four by four Jeep struggling to get up it and decided that in my tiny Ford KA I had no chance.

I turned around to drive back home. As I turned the corner my car got caught on some ice and it began to slide towards the curb. Closer and closer it came, I slammed on the breaks but it did nothing. BANG!

There goes my wheel and tyre. I parked further down on the road. And went home for a cup of tea.

I rang work and informed them of the situation and explained that I would not be in until I have changed my spare wheel (which would later become not coming in at all).

I managed to change my wheel to the spare (a MAJOR achievement for me!).

I headed down Dean’s (step dad’s). We managed to find a wheel from a scap yard. We then went to a tyre specialist who sorted out my tracking and replaced all of my wheels (it turned out they all needed doing!). So although I am glad they are done (as it will give better grip on the road), I could of done with out spending the £150 it cost.

The lesson in all this: Don’t drive it ice! It’s not safe.

Hoping all is well,

Antony
