Well I had a nice surprise last week when I received a parcel at work – my Mum and Dad had gone out and bought me the Tefal toast and egg toaster! It makes poached eggs, warms your meat, and toasts your muffin, bagel or whatever at the same time! This may not sound like a [...]

Yes, after three years of having a rubbish phone (well rubbish after three years), I splashed out and bought an iPhone on O2’s £45 tariff which gives me 500 minutes and 500 texts a month, with unlimited Internet access. I’ve had it two weeks now, and am pretty used to it. There’s some things I [...]

As you can probably tell from the picture above, my weekend was not too exciting. I watched the final of Big Brother, which sucked because the twins didn’t win it.
Saturday was spent chilling out, Sunday I went food shopping, and then I came home and made some rolls. They were totally easy and took me [...]

The Times is reporting today that O2 has won the battle to be the carrier for the iPhone in the UK. That’s good news for me as I’m on O2, and can’t wait to get my iPhone – I haven’t upgraded my ‘phone now for like 2 and a half years!
However, I’m not going to [...]

The iPhone arrives in the US next week. And still no word about when it’s going to arrive on these shores. I’ve had my current ‘phone for two and a half years now and it’s beginning to suck. But I don’t want to sign up for a new 12 month contract before the iPhone arrives.
If [...]

I think this might be the most exciting post I ever write! I have been busy this week getting to grips with new household appliances. I got a new washing machine / tumble dryer delivered on Wednesday after successfully managing to disconnect the old one without entirely flooding my flat. It seems extremely complicated (as [...]

Looking like something out of a 1930s science-fiction film, an unexpected bonus of my trip to Omagh this week was the discovery of what I consider to be the oldest hand dryer I have ever laid my eyes on.
I had to snap it with my mobile so the picture quality is a bit rubbish but [...]

This is the entertainment system on the upcoming (if they’re ever allowed to fly) Virgin America. With a similar (but no so advanced) system already on Jet Blue, why can’t we get some of that over here? Or come to think of it, even on American Airlines flights over there?
And speaking of Virgin, it sucks [...]

I HATE the Daily Mail. It is a right-wing scare-mongering paper that a) creates scare stories about how immigrants are taking over the UK and b) has at least one article slagging the BBC in it every day. So when I got a message from my Mum on my voicemail today telling me to go [...]
