Tired

For quite some months now I have been feeling quite tired and yarning a lot in work. I thought this was over work or lack of sleep but as soon as I got home I felt fine. I have now worked out what this is. I am bored stupid with my job.

The missing link update

The Link blamed the insurance company and the insurance company blamed The Link. So I told them both to stick it. Job done

The Missing Link

I have just got my mobile back from The Link where I had left it two weeks ago as It would not charge. I have had Insurance with them for over a year as I was convinced that something is bound to happen to it in eighteen months. This amounts to About £120. It seems that in the two weeks they have had my phone they have put in a second hand battery and scratched the phone in three different places. At the time of writing this (16:45) it has been on charge three hours and twentyminutess and still does not seem to be charging. If it does not charge you can be damn sure I will give FULL details of this company. I'll update you tomorroww.

Yes I know.

Cardiff University researchers have found a dangerous flaw in HSBC's online banking system (its called being on line). The Guardian says a security loophole could be exploited to break into any of the bank's 3.1 million UK online accounts within nine attempts. It relies on "key loggers" gadgets or software viruses that capture the keystrokes made on a particular computer which can enable a hacker to work out the information needed to successfully log onto an account within a few attempts. This just reinforces my opinion that there is no such thing as a secure connection. Banks seam to be saving money at our expense by closing local branches and expecting us to bank on line. To me banking on line amounts to walking down the road with your months wages held out in front of you. As soon as I received my on line banking details I destroyed them with out even looking at them and then sent my bank a letter thanking them for further compromising the security of my account. If I require a service from a company I am quite capable of asking for it. I do not want it shoved down my throat. The only other company that is stupid enough to do this is Arkwright on Open All Hours with his ginger cake.

Death

R.I.P.

Rant And Rave.

Freedom of speech is truly dead.

Too Soft.

I have for sometime made fun of the politically correct crowed for being a bunch of paranoid, interfering idiots whose motives are purely financial. Now I was tempted to leave that entry there just as it was but the longer I live in London the more I realise that some people really are this stupid and do need to be wrapped in cotton wool. These people are usually in well paid jobs and look very smart. Having said this I must point out I have for sometime now known that there are many different forms of intelligence. For example, I know people who hold very important and well paid jobs who hold many people’s lives in there hands but god love um they couldn’t hit the side of a barn with a banjo so you can forget changing a fuse. They have no social skills and no practical skills. All they know is there job. I also know people who can’t read and write who can build you a 4 bedroom house with double garage without looking at a set of plans once. Knowledge does not equal wisdom. Anyway these people need saving from themselves. This brings me to my new campaign. The politically correct crowed have the right idea they’re just nit picking and being too soft. We need to group together and get hardcore on these reckless fools. For a start a few things need to be banned as they are far too dangerous. Here are a few of the first things to go.

4X4 vehicles, the front grills are too high and can cause a lot of damage to a person in a normal car, in fact any large car will have to go as well. Normal cars will go at a later date.

Sports like golf, cricket, tennis, polo and croquet. Far too dangerous. All them balls flying around and shooting you can forget straight away.

Large gatherings like race meetings, operas and garden party’s got to go as too many people in one place is asking for trouble.

Champagne? Not a chance. That cork could have somebody’s eye out.

All horses will be gathered and sent to another country and set free. One kick from one of them and you’ve had your lot.

First and business class travel will have to go as standard class is overcrowded and an accident waiting to happen.

So there we go just a few ideas to set us off. What I need now is a name with the first letters spelling something like scope or mind. If anybody has any ideas or you have noticed anything I have missed, just let me know.

Lynx 2

And why is it only blokes who notice when I've go it on. If that's the Lynx effect you can shove it. I'm sticking to Brute.

Lynx

They had a two for one deal on lynx at a large shop by me and I jumped at it. I forgot about it until this morning when I gave myself a good covering. It was at this point I noticed it was anti perspirant deodorant. How do you freaks ware that stuff? It was like spraying Evo stick under my arms. I washed it off as soon as I got to work. I would rather stink than go through that again. Can I interest anybody in two cans of Lynx anti perspirant deodorant?

Linux

I have decided to use Ubuntu Linux for my internet pc. I was going to install it this weekend but it turns out the old PC I was going to use does not have an IDE cable and neither do I. All the junk I have horded over the years and I aint got an IDE cable. If anybody else is thinking of trying it out I found this site quite good reading.

Just another hour?

Boing! Time for bed!

July

It's to hot for me. My brain don't work proper in heat like this.

Readjustment

MY holiday period is over now and do I want to be back in London working?............... NO! I need a couple of days to sort my head out. I wrote about a page of stuff about my holiday and my PC has lost it. I’m going to have another look tonight. If I don’t find it at least it killed four hours on the train home.

Why Me

I brought a rain coat yesterday, today is now clearing up. Is it me or what? What would happen if I went out and bought sun block and an umbruella?

Penzance

As always my annual pilgrimage to Penzance was top notch. I got the 10:05 train from Paddington. Got on the train nice and early to find once again that despite asking for an aisle seat facing (6’2” gotta stretch the legs out), I got a back facing window seat. I was closely followed by a family comprising entirely of women, five birds and a little girl. Then a yank sat opposite me. They all had seats booked but the five birds (or anorexic melted welly faced bints) decided that they would use my spare seat and keep their booked seat empty. So the seat remained empty despite the yank asking if he could use the seat if he moved when they needed it. For the first hour and a half he seamed to think he could stretch his feet under MY seat. After a bit of footsy and a few kicks in the sack he got the idea. It was at this point I realised I had forgotten the spare batteries for my laptop. It was too sunny to see the PSP (another reason for the aisle seat) so all I had to do was read my book and irritate the turkey baster bird by getting up every 15 minutes which just goes to show that it don’t pay to annoy a psycho Welsh bloke. Mazey day was cool as ever and the music went on till gone one in the morning. The rest of the week was spent chillin and ting apart from the odd walk. We took a little trip to the Lizard Peninsula for chips and an ice cream. A trip to Lands End was also on the cards. After a walk around the shops and a quick stop for fish and chips we were off for a walk along the cliffs. Along the way we stumbled upon a little farm where my mate was savaged by a little black and white cat. As we approached the farm shop we found a little yellow sign on the door which stated the we should not touch the black and white cat as she is very unfriendly. Better late than never? I think my mate may disagree with you there. I also remember with great joy my trip to Lidl. We left the shop to find a rain storm in full swing that would have sent a Brazilian umbrella manufacturer running for cover. I came to the conclusion that the young lady I was with should decide weather we should wait or risk walking once the rain had eased off a bit. This way I would not be to blame. We set off once it eased a bit which of course lasted long enough for us to get too far away to turn back. I don’t mind getting wet but I hate it when I get drips hanging off my eyebrows. I also hate it when some impotent nonce in a car covers you head to foot in water cos they are too stupid and ignorant to drive around a puddle. I had just finished cursing the gimp in the car when I felt a strange sensation in my back which was closely followed by the bottle of wine in my rucksack smashing on the floor. This also involved a bottle of lemonade rolling off down the road spraying froth as it went. We collected the groceries that were not damaged and sloshed the rest of the way home. Friday was sunny so we went to Mousehole which is a great place. One comment stuck in my mind and that was “I can’t wait to move away from here so we can come back on holiday” I think that says it all. Saturday was going home day and once again despite having an empty train to choose from I still ended up in the deliverance carriage so I plugged in the headphones and listened to England get knocked out of the world cup. I am now counting down the days till my next holiday.

Red Left Arm

Ok I'm back and I got a red arm. Give us a day.

Penzance

Penzance, Penzance, Penzance, Penzance, Penzance, Penzance, Penzance, Did I forget PENZANCE!

Moron

Saw some bloke on the news last night sitting in a garden in Surbiton banging on about how big the gardens are and how we can cut the garden in half and put another house on it. First, Shut up you moron. You have not got the first idea what you are talking about. If you had been through Surbiton station during rush hour, It would be patently obvious that the last thing it needed was more people. London and the suburbs are full. Fact! Stop your internal dialog, your wrong. Without the proper infrastructure, your just jerking off. These people paid for there house AND garden so mind your own business. Look, you got the congestion charge, you've freed up the roads so you can drive your big flash cars to whatever job you choose to go to that day. Now leave real people the hell alone. O and stop creating stupid problems to distract us from what your messing up. It don't work. Be careful of the toes you stand on on the way up as they are connected to the backsides you have to kiss on the way back down.

Why !

If only you could see in side my mind. You wouldn't know weather to run, walk, cry or spit. Don't worry though the world cup is on init, then the tennis, then golf and cricket THEN a new series of celebrity whore, hosted by Julian Clarey. HOO HAA! Sainsbury's tomato relish is well nice by the way. Nice on some chips like init.

Sorry

The day before yesterday I went out after work to buy some shorts and sun block for my holidays. It rained. This morning on the way to work I bought an umbrella, now it’s cleared up. Sorry about that. I’m going to buy a raincoat on Friday so it’s going to be great this weekend.

Theft

I went to make my lunch for work last night and somebody had stolen my bread and replaced it with a blue fluffy ball. Don’t you just hate it when that happens?
