A bit of this and a bit of that

Do you like meeting people online? If so, you might want to pop down to FriendFinder. You can search for friends from all around the world and who knows you might even make a lasting friendship or change you life forever.

Just got an email from work reminding me I haven’t booked my all holidays for this year yet. There’s still some time left but I’d better get planning. I popped around some places on the web, including Expedia, Leisuretime Holidays, Butlins and a few other website but to tell you the truth, I haven’t really [...]

It’s been some time since I went to the Races with some friends. To tell you the truth I’ve only gone a handful of times, so I can’t call myself a seasoned gambler, but maybe I should get some practice in for the next time we decide to go.
There are a number of places [...]

A colleague of mine sent me this joke and I thought it was so good I would just share it here:?

Have you ever had any luck with the lottery? We went through a phase here at work some time ago where someone pooled up different people’s numbers and we all put them in a big pot. It’s called a syndicate and it’s a good way to improve your chances of winning something (though the payout [...]

What do you do when you child won’t eat? We had this problem last night when Arthur refused to eat his dinner or any of the other option we came up with. It wasn’t that he wasn’t hungry, because I’m sure he was, but he was playing up. For example he pointed to a banana, [...]

I’m looking forward to when Arthur will need some help with his homework. It’s so much easier nowadays as you have the whole Internet at your fingertips to research things you need to write about. One great place to find material is the Gazhoo.com Content Marketplace which is a sort of eBay for documents [...]

Do you find that you tend to use the same password over and over again? I’m finding myself doing this so think it’s probably time I come up with a new set of passwords. I don’t have a password policy strictly speaking, but I do have a set of rule I tend to follow:

I love the Internet sometimes. It’s such a great resource to find out about anything you may need. Say you need to unblock a sink, for example, here’s a step-by-step video how to do it. I picked that little gem up from UK TV Gold’s DIY website; and I’m bookmarking that for the next household [...]

Here’s a good joke Cedric sent me this morning. If you have kids I’m sure you can relate to this:
What to wear
1st baby: You begin wearing maternity clothes as soon as your OB/GYN confirms your pregnancy.
2nd baby: You wear your regular clothes for as long as possible.
3rd baby: Your maternity clothes ARE your regular clothes.
