that’s scally – he sent me this link by IM today and I was horrified…
gah
you know when you have one of those evenings when you wish you had stayed at work?
left for the train to discover it was cancelled 🙁
got home to discover empty fridge and freezer 🙁
cooked what I could rummage together only to throw it on the floor whilst walking through the hall – I think the new carpet is jinxed 🙁
went to get a drink and spilt blueberry and cranberry juice on the new wool rug 🙁
decided to at least eat something so had some toast and bit my tongue 🙁
so going to walk jack and go to bed where hopefully nothing else will break/go wrong.
roll on tomorrow 🙂
share trading
I wanted to buy some shares today – it was either that or pay off my credit card – you know while I have some money in my bank account for a change. Only problem is that both the stocks I wanted to buy are US based so I can’t buy them with my SelfTrade account and so that left me looking to see who else does online flat fee trades. Not a lot of options by the look of it 🙁 Any suggestions?
ivan massow
Ivan Massow – love him or hate him – or have an unbiased discussion about his career. I personally think he has a flair for self promotion – even more than Sno – of out in the UK fame. At least Sno hasn’t put his picture on the login page
shopping by mobile
scally is in abercrombie and fitch @ Dulles Town Center and has called me to see what it was I wanted him to get me while he was over – handing me over to the sales guy so I could explain – how completely random? needless to say they did not have what I wanted in small – no surprise there really 🙁
too early :(
At 08:45 today – yes that is normally when I am leaving for work – I was at the Warner Village Cinema in Shepherd’s Bush feeling very sorry for myself. However I was not alone – our entire office where there – no it wasn’t a sneak preview of Ocean’s Eleven but a company meeting.
So we wandered into screen 9 expecting the usual set up of important people talking from the front only to be confronted by adverts for all of WarnerBros current offerings including the dubiously named eight legged freaks. I mean hello – 09:00 and scared out my wits by a trailer of a film with huge spiders. I mean come on that is so unfair I was expecting to be bored shitless not scared shitless.
They didn’t disappoint though we had the important people talking from the front after the trailers.
weekend review
Saturday saw me in Brixton with Oliver again – getting mightily hammered and talking sex and girlfriends and stuff.
Blogger ‘A’ and Blogger ‘B’ where down my local pub for Sunday Roast this week – which was very nice 🙂 Also there were Jacs & Helen and Spence & Glenn. After gorging ourselves on stupidly large plates of Turkey and Beef dinners we opted for pudding and coffees too – The girls won a huge box of Milk Tray in the raffle and then Blagger’A’ and Blogger ‘B’ went to see Monsters Inc.
I enjoyed my night a lot snuggling on the sofa and watching sunday night TV after the movies and food with friends – a good end to a good weekend.
spelling
no not the dumb cow related to the nepotistic producer my spelling – or lack of it actually.dave@work pointed it out – I’m not sure if I just can’t spell or if it’s the microsoft natural keyboard or the learning to touch type and not look at my hands that’s making it so bad at the moment.
viewpoint
normally it’s jonathan who is getting excited over technology – but today it’s me for a change – no I haven’t bought anything! I have discovered viewpoint though and think it’s brilliant. Although I never got around to learning flash – so I reckon learning viewpoint is so not going to happen. Still it’s nice to play with their demos if nothing else .
