Strawberry Revels replace Coffee Revels – the world has gone mad. Vote for your favourite here

Posted on October 31, 2008 by Kieron

First the Jonathan and Russell fiasco, now further evidence that the world has gone stark raving bonkers. After eating healthy for a few days now I decided I deserved a treat in the form of a little bit of chocolate to ease my craving. So I headed to the shop, picked up a bag of my favourite chocolates – Revels, and proceeded to wolf them down like they were the last sweeties on earth.

Jonathan Ross & Russell Brand’s “offensive” call to Andrew Sachs – is it a slow news day?

Posted on October 28, 2008 by Kieron

I was going to blog about this yesterday but thought, no it’ll blow over soon, it must be a slow news day. How wrong I was.

It almost makes me want to take a road trip to Italy just to get caught speeding by one of these beauties. Can you imagine being followed on the motorway by one of these beauties?

Stupid domain names

Posted on October 23, 2008 by Kieron

Domain names can be a bit like babies, you may think your son/daughter is the most beautiful baby in the world, when others just see a hairless chimpanzee.You may think your nice semi generic domain is the best thing in the world and worth £500k easily. Others will offer you £10. But really, I mean really what were people thinking when they register domain names with a hyphen after every single letter in them?
