The Gadget Show has gotten even worse :o

The 'future science' one? Some of the things on it were quite interesting - the 3D stuff for one - but Jason Bradbury dressed as morph isn't something I ever wanted to see.


That's my problem with that show - some of the content is great, but the presentation makes it almost unwatchable!

If they're not high-fiving each other, it's vox pops and 'I couldn't give a fcuk' races that tell you nothing about the 'gadget' :(

They have probably focus grouped it to death. Literally.

That I'll probably go and see Iron Man 3 if the reviews are in any way decent - it'll be the first time at the cinema since Dredd...

I am, I'm happy enough to skip to the end of a few reviews though :)

Say that you're not cooking so she cooks or it's takeaway?

Why Safari will tell me in one tab that I'm not connected to the internet, but then carry on reloading other tabs. Moron.

ION, MS need to sort out Outlook, formerly Hotmail. What is that company's obsession with fcuking that up every few months?

What is the problem with it? It is working fine for me. :?


It's running pretty poorly here. It's like the redraw times have halved, which is impressive for what should be a page with some text in it.
It runs like a dog.



Small update -
It's better, but still not right, on the iPhone. Frequently get messages saying that an error occurred whenever I try to delete something from the phone interface.
Secondly, having checked the account from my phone's browser and seeing that I've got email, when I go to the Mac and check the account it'll often be left open at an email.
Clicking back through to the inbox then doesn't show the messages I know that have arrived, unless I hit refresh.
Lastly, if I succeed in deleting a message via the phone browser, when I check from the computer (even after a refresh) the message sometimes persists.
And it's just crashed Firefox.

For years, I haven't had any problems, and now MS decide to give it an update and it [LIFTED] everything up beautifully.

Lol, those were the problems I had on my tablet, my phone was 'better'. I just forward everything to Gmail and I'm updating website accounts as I go along now. It was the final straw for me.

"You've got to pace yourself," said 69-year-old Sir Mick, who has planned longer gaps between gigs to allow for more recovery time.

Does that mean they will be using motability scooters to roam about the stage?
