The World Cup 2006

Its nearly here, every other car is flying a flag. To celebrate,
here is my complete website in German!

Lottery Results Update

I've found some time to add some new functionality to the lottery results website and its had a bit of a makeover so now looks much better too. Its now got password and syndicate reminder services which were the two most common questions we got for it.

Thanks to google, its now free too! Google Adwords revenue will hopefully pay for the site hosting and create some money for charity too.

Did you know that the number 13, unlucky for some, is actually the least drawn number from the UK National Lottery? Check out the statistics here!

Run Run Run

You'll know I've never ran far in my life, but recently now on a fitness drive and gradually increasing the running.. In fact this is run was pretty good.. I'm (trying) to do the half Robin Hood Marathon in September. Not only will the training get me fit but we can raise some more money for Childrens Brain Tumour Research too - http://www.justgiving.com/dotcom

Two Brands Better than One?

I just found this site http://senditnow.com/ from a google, looking for a courier for something. Decent enough site. Turns out when I get to the end its actually Royal Mail / Parcel Force directly. Cool. Good prices and no middle man.

Similarly, did you know www.cameras2u.com is acutally Jessops in disguise? They'll not let on, only a yell.com search throughs them up as the same address. Amazing difference in prices between high street, jessops.com and cameras2u.com They are more than happy to take your money mind with the high street option!

Out with the Mayo!

Have you forgotten Salad Cream in this day and age of mayonnaise and drizzled dressings? I just rediscovered it. Salad is edible with this stuff. What's with the salad anyhow? Week 2 of my diet and I've 4lbs to loose for the first milestone...

Remember those Telephone Dishes

I just remembered about the great telephone system where you got a small dish on the side of your house and 2 telephone lines for alot less money that BT... Took me a while to remember the name of the service but it was Ionica. "Our revolutionary telephone system uses digital radiowaves"... They ran out of money and closed down years ago.

Their website is long gone, but the waybackmachine had a cached copy... http://web.archive.org/web/19980624130611/www.ionica.co.uk/
