Dr James Martin - the Annual Commonwealth Lecture 2010

Dr James Martin – the Annual Commonwealth Lecture 2010

Dr James Martin has just finished presenting the annual Commonwealth lecture 2010, and as one of the “lunatic bloggers” which he criticized for bankrupting newspapers, I felt I might just take issue with a couple of points whilst the various acquaintances from Oxford University and the Commonwealth tuck into their refreshments. Dr Martin mentioned a [...]

Music – Busy Signal – Unknown Number (Private Call)

Have you tried ringing me lately. Didn’t answer did I, and you didn’t leave an ansafone message either, did you. I might set this as my custom ringtone, but, failing that, we can just listen to this track by Busy Signal from a few years back explaining why we don’t pick up private calls… Track [...]

Rob Scott: Lord of the Internet

Time for a wholesale change of this page now, after it became apparent that Google agreed with my outrageous claim to be “Lord of the Internet” back in June 2009, when I wrote this very page following a night of high drama in the mean streets of Leith, Edinburgh, Scotland, UK. Quite simply, if you [...]

Internet Explorer 7 & 8 Won’t Float Objects Left or Right with CSS

If you don’t know, or don’t need to know HTML, specifically how to use CSS to float objects (such as embeddable video content) to the left or the right (i.e. in the style of the videos in Remix.vg, the best remix chart, mashup chart and covers chart on the internet, IMO) then close your ears [...]

BT Broadband – The Best Rural UK Option?

A few years ago – almost three years, to be precise – I wrote a blog post here in this very World’s Greatest Blog all about installing BT Broadband and Sky Broadband into two different properties where I arrived at the conclusion that Sky’s wireless router was slightly worse in terms of wifi signal range [...]

Flights for 50p

Flights for 50p

I’ve had my fair share of Ryanair flights this year and have managed to make it work for me – but early morning starts, car parking and needing a printer for the boarding pass can make life pretty hellish. I’m forever grateful to one of the ladies at a French airport who took the practical [...]

Finding The Cheapest Mattress Online!

Its bank holiday weekend in Britain. Over here, this means one thing: we must all go out and purchase furniture. This slothful Monday also happens to fall at the end of our first weekend in our new property, which means we, too, are looking around for bits and pieces of furniture to fill up our [...]

Back in Blighty

We are now back in Britain, so, though we moved to France, we are no longer there. There is still a Conservative government here, and the weather is considerably cooler, but other than that, life is as good as ever. The first person to guess correctly where we are going to live in the comments [...]

Bed Bugs at Time Warner

Bed Bugs at Time Warner

In possibly the strangest press release ever published, Time Warner today used the $500-a-pop Businesswire service to announce that they had bed bugs in their offices. What the hell is happening over at the media giant’s marketing department? Sending out a message to several thousand professional subscribers eager to hear of financial news and business [...]

Rebecca (1940) - Directed by Alfred Hitchcock

Rebecca (1940) – Directed by Alfred Hitchcock

I was pleasantly surprised with this war-era black and white movie, which came free with a Sunday newspaper. The pedigree of Hitchcock himself should have been a clue, but this classic film was genuinely entertaining for a modern-era guns-and-lasers fan. The story is based on Daphne du Maurier’s 1938 novel of the same name and [...]

Do Not Quote!

As part of the social media frenzy we kicked off during our incorporation and first ever AGM I have got my act together and got myself back onto Twitter. This does have the unfortunate side-effect that I, once again, have to read the tweets of others. However, this time, I am coming in with ground [...]
