Nice kitchenware, can buy the products in BT. Have not checked where else you can get them in Dublin. Got some of their stuff in the sale.

Energy ratings for properties that are for sale/rent
Great news for people who are looking to rent or buy a place. Owners need to assess their property on how energy efficient it is. More choice, and better sale/rent prices for us to choose from.
Saw this in breakingnews.ie.

Really now, happy new year, Zune owners!
Mega epic fail, 30GB Zunes simultaneously failed when 2009 rung in, or as they called it "Z2K". Mwuhahahaha.
Well, a quick search came with many hits. I just picked gizmodo.com's one cos it's a funny read. At the stage, M$ has no fix, but there is a DIY fix in the gizmodo post while folks wait for an update.

More women use mobiles while driving
Yes, in Ireland, of course. Mick, my father-in-law and I were queuing at Wagamama's for a quick evening snack, and a (probably) yummy-drummy was recounting the audacity of a Garda to stop and pull her over because she was on the phone. That's not all, embarrassingly in view of people driving past her, she doesn't think it's a big deal. Yes, she was on the phone to someone. Woman, it's the frigging law! I can picture Mick rolling his eyes.

Even Harrods advertise on tv
You know the recession is bad for stores, just saw an ad for Harrod's sale. Now that's different. I'm not a big sales person anymore, all that pushing and shoving and buying things that won't be worn or used. At least that will help me save money.

No more MacWorld
Oh no, and Jobs also dropping out of keynote speeches. I often wait in anticipation for his keynote and with Gizmodo and other sites that give live updates. I'm sorely going to miss this.

Stephen Fry's fury over Vista
He really doesn't like Windows.
I hate Vista so much I want to cry. Bought a Vaio. The most useless $4k ever spent. It just will not join a sec-enabled network. HOW????
That was the initial tweet on it, the follow-on ones were funny.
The network is there. I press to join it doesn't even ask for a password! It just can't join. How insultingly dreadful can software be? (Link)
I have nine macs!!!!!! I don't need another fucking mac. I just want ONE ARSING PC that isn't complete SHIT (Link)
Too late. It's going out the window. I can't put up with this sort of arse. (Link)
Listemn I have parallels, I have fusion, I have 2 distros of Linux. I need jsut one, just 1 of cunting Vista so that I can review things (Link)
Forgive intemperate language, but every time I buy a PC they're worse, not better than they were before and it make me so angry I could kill (Link)
How can I review certain PC only things if I don't have one? Anyway, I've calmed down now. Vista and PCs are so crap it's funny x (Link)
Still taking deep breaths. Thank you all for your concern. The Vista devil spoke thru me and it wasn't pretty. x (Link)
It has certainly brightened up my day. :)
