    free debate

    It seems that the British Chiropractic Association is afraid of scientific debate and thinks that use of the libel laws in this country is more appropriate. I hold a different view and would urge anyone of the same outlook to register their support by clicking on the button.

  • Maplins

    It seems I may get chance to look at one of their shops finally. I get a regular email from them, each about 6 pages long, of, mostly, non-essential gadgetry though there looks to be some useful stuff in there as well and I've wondered for a while just how much stock they carry in their shops? Maybe I should leave the plastic at home??

  • Windows 7? Anybody? Hello???

    I've posted a few times about my dithering over whether to upgrade to Windows 7 and seem to have had quite a few page hits but I did ask last weekend if anyone had installed Windows 7 and if they would let me have any comments on how things went. But not heard a thing from anybody. I'm not looking for great technical treatises on Windows 7, just a couple of lines on how the install went, particularly if going from 32bit Vista to 64bit Windows 7?

    C'mon peeps, someone out there must have given in to the white hot maelstrom of MS hype, loving it, hating it, anything??

  • So that's it then

    Watched the last episode of ReGenesis, season 4 last night. Sad and inexplicable to witness the demise of intelligent and entertaining programming, fuck knows there's little enough of it about. Maybe the writing demands were becoming a bit much as I don't feel season 4 was as good as the first two, can't say about season 3 as I missed the first few episode, and it seems I'm going to have to wait until this time next year to get it on DVD?!

    For what it's worth, I'd like to congratulate all concerned with the show, actors, writers, directors, production designers also it was an excellent idea to have a website running alongside which gave more detail of the scientific basis of each episode.

    So as the lights go out at NorBAC, will anyone aspire to the standards they set?

  • Autumn days

    I never realised I was such an outdoor sort of person? I've got three things that I ought to be doing, washing vehicles, cutting wood and trimming the, never to be sufficiently damned, leylandii but it's raining and I can't do any of them for the second weekend in a row. I guess autumn must be here.

    On the brighter side I did find a guy locally who does bike bodywork, I found him when I did a delivery there through the new job, so I guess it has it's upside. I bought my bike as a Cat C write off and it has had a scuffed middle fairing and after pricing a new fairing and decals I decided I would live with it, but this guy is telling me he can get a set of decals for £25 so I might just put him to the test.

    So, at a bit of a loose end at the moment, might see if there is any poker to be played.
