I’m in the middle of an exchange of emails with a “Microsoft EMEA Technical Support Clerk” (a tech support guy – of which more later), so here’s a Simpson’s video.

Yesterday I toddled off on a jaunty saunter down to London (well, it would have been even jollier if Midland Mainline were able to display even the slightest hint of competence).

I love reading. I read, easily, a book a week. Often [...]
According to the Radio Times, our quarter-final match against Edinburgh will be broadcast next Monday (12 March), 8pm, BBC2.
Be there, or be square.
Mind you, we’ve not heard from Granada or the BBC that it’s actually us playing that week… but I seem to remember us being the second quarter final, so it makes sense.
Newsweek has a fun article about the effect Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will have on summer holiday camps: [via TLC]
Peter Kassen of Maine’s Hidden Valley Camp is issuing a gag order for his faster readers. “We as a community will be sworn to secrecy,” he says. “We want to make sure [...]
