Funniest things I heard this week

I've travelled far and wide this week - literally. From Northamptonshire to Angus in Scotland and lots of bits in between, so there's been lots of time spent sat in my liccle Vauxhall Combo, listening to the radio. BBC Radio 1 specifically, which is probably the most funniest (and subtle with it) radio station in the world. I honestly don't know what I'd do without it. Driving all those miles, anyone without a radio would just go insane. From Colin Murray's incessant playing of what he classes as the ultimate gay anthem; 'Paris to Berlin' by Infernal, to the bizarreness of the reality radio show 'One Night With Laura' complete with lie detector tests. And putting me in complete stitches that I nearly lost control of the van - who can't help but laugh at a drum and bass version of the Dad's Army theme tune. No I'm not joking, this isn't still the April Fools blog, download it now, you'll giggle in your sleep! Even the news is funny! At the outbreak of the news regarding the swan they found in Fife with bird flu, there were lots of questions sent to the station by text message with concerns over the risk to humans and pets. The Beeb's news team dutifully answered all the main questions and then at the end added... "And finally, to one anonymous person who texted in with their concerns - No, you can't catch bird flu from Easter Eggs(!)"

That's it!

I've been away a week now and in the time I've been gone I expected to see all the bugs fixed, all the good user ideas implemented, all the shows I wanted to be added, added, my dishes washed, plants watered and the dog fed and what do I get? Just some submissions processed I mean if that's all TV.com have to offer us, that they can't be bothered doing a simple thing like that then I've had enough. I'm going to leave this site and start my own TV site where things are done properly! Bye bye! ...oh and er... April fool! :D Yes it wasn't very good, was it? Kinda obvious really...but more than Google did this year! I mean, what happened to Google Gulpâ„¢? That was classic!

Fog on the Tyne

Off to Geordie Land (Newcastle... well Gateshead really) for the week. Seya at the other end of it! Have a great week everybody.

Happy St. Paddy's Day!

Well I couldn't spend all that time in Ireland and not say that could I? So to Irish people everywhere, have fun, get completely drunk and have a great day! ...oh I'm back by the way. :D I'll remain in England next week so if you want me in an emergency just ring 0898-JOLLY-HOCKEY-STICKS and ask for the lord of the manor... *cough*. :P

Back Friday (again)

Working in Ireland for the week, so I am. So if anyone wants me that's where I'll be, so I will. If you wish to contact me in an emergency, just call Ireland on 0898 TO-BE-SURE and ask for Pete and a pint of Murphy's.

Back to the front.

Hiya everyone. Okay brief catch up, Dundee, Kilmarnock, Paisley, Glasgow, Dunfries, Keswick (lovely place!), home, knackered! Told you it was brief. :D  What the heck? "Level 36 100%". So...erm... that's... like... you know... level 37 init? Really? I mean come on, that's like sticking money in the vending machine and the crisp packet getting stuck. Do you think if I shake my monitor a bit it'll change to level 37? Ah well, hope everyone else is loving life! Pete.

Back Friday

Working in Scotland for the week, so if anyone wants me that's where I'll be. If you wish to contact me in an emergency just call Scotland on 0898 DINKY-DOO and ask for Pete. :D

Well that sums it up.

Young and Restless I am now, apparently. 14 levels from the big 50... and that's how old I feel so I'm not sure about the 'Young' bit. I've not stopped for weeks work wise so I'm not sure how I found the time to contribute anything. Since I last blogged about it, I've been back to wee bonny Dundee (and I'll probably have to go back again), been to Naas, Wexford and Limerick in Ireland (did I say it was a lovely place, Ireland?) and now they've got me doing night shifts in Leeds... yes Leeds... I know... Leeds! So anyway. Hope everyone else is doing great. Pete.

Done-dee

Well that was an interesting couple of days. Driven probably the furthest I've ever driven before all the way up to Wee Bonny Scotland and the iccle city of Dundee. Done a job lasting two hours and then driven all the way back again. Madness... takes it toll, as someone once said. Anyhoo, back home again... wonder where I'll get sent next week. :D Now what have we got here now... new buttons, Downloads? Now that's a good idea, in fact it's such a good idea I think CNET should make it into a site called, I dunno, www.download.com maybe? Hmmm, the Queue's been demoted to just one letter I see... perhaps John Cleese will look after my contributions now. Oh look I'm level 34! Wardrobe Malfunction, that a reference to IKEA maybe? ;) Anyway, cynacism mode cancel, blog over, hope you guys are well!
