Tipping etiquette

Had the day off today a day working jolly hard at home, as our new fridge freezer was being delivered. I shouldn't joke about it, the working from home I mean, but it's a running routine between Clare and myself, she works at home once a week usually...

The Jackdaw

I used to work at The Jackdaw, the people who run it are nasty and the food is even worse. The cleanliness standard in the kitchen are horrendous and way the food is prepared is stored is no better. If food is sent back due to a fault in the kitchen ...

New google walking directions (needs some work)

120 miles on foot or two miles by road, hmm. I think they put these deliberate mistakes in there just to get people talking.Talking of google, www.cuil.com is launched, they've been spidering this site for a while, it's a new search site started by s...

Four videos on the blog at once, that's not what it's all about

Just tried to give blood, and after waiting for an hour, I had to give up and come back to work, bah. So now I am bursting with an extra pint of blood that I wasn't expecting to be carrying around with me! It's going to take a real extra effort to ge...

The George in Rye July newsletter

I was going to get a haircut, but...

Our freezer broke down today, all the haircut money I'd saved will have to go towards that.The inside back of the freezer has bulged out (not with frost, I don't know what with) and it's forced the drawers out so they pushed the door open and it thaw...

Why's this Habitat Radius furniture always so far away?

Five drawer tallboy, starting at fifty quid, but it's in Cheshire. Will most likely end up waiting until we move and then buying another one of these new. It's going to be well handy having tall and slim furniture when we move from the big wide flat ...

Zoo thousand and HATE!

If this is true as I read it, that a carjacker jumped into a woman's car at the lights nd then somehow "accidentally" fell out of the car again seriously injured then it's a good story.If however it's a case of mistaken identity, ie the man got in th...

Bullet train does London to Ashford in 32 minutes
