Easter

Cadburys cream eggs really are rather vile! Maybe I was just hungrier as a kid!

Vista

Wasted the entire morning with a computer that wouldn’t start because Vista can’t cope with microsoft automatic updates. What a soddin’ wheeze. The least Microsoft could do is post clearly on its site how to sort this problem as it seems to be happening to lots of users. Easy to do when you know how….aghrhrhrhr

Pigeons

• Irritated: Every dawn a fat and ugly sex maniac pigeon brings one of his whores to my windowsill and sets to it in a very noisome and raucous fashion. It's driving me crazy, turning me into an insomniac and, more importantly, putting me off.....
• Clever man: Stick a picture of a hawk on your window. Hawks hate pigeons and they know it!
• Irritated: Marvellous. It works. Nothing but the terrified swooshing of wings as they fly on by in a flutter of fear!
