Megawoosh

Yes this is a fake and the video was a carefully crafted viral ad for Microsoft’s Office suite Project 2007 the production of the clip involved, among other things, a stuntman, a lot of editing, and a long piece of rope.



Those who know me would know I would never promote anything by Microsoft but this ain't software...!!

£6 Tax for Broadband

So the Government wants to tax us on our telephone lines £6 per year so that they can give the money to yet another large organisation to enable them to expand the broadband network to all areas of the country. Why the hell should I pay for somebody else's broadband if you want broadband pay for it the same as I do. If you cant get it over the phone line use a satellite service or if you are in a village set up your own Wimax system,many places have!, but dont ask me to pay! Of course you could always go back to dial up access or even 3G mobile access if you can get a signal. My point is it does not have to come over the telephone line there are many other ways to have access to the internet.
 
I know many people who don't have broadband *gasp* so why should they pay because they have a phone line? is that fair? NO I don't think so!
 
As we all know we will get taxed but the money won't go to this project, much the same as our road tax which does not get used for the roads but goes to the Government pot.
 
So as I see it yet another stealth tax to fleece us of our money. Thin end to the wedge ....yes I think so..

Elections 4th June Farce

For me the elections today have been a farce for the following reasons.

1/ Our polling cards did not arrive, when I phoned Spelthorne council they tell me I did not need a card and that all the cards had been hand delivered. So what happened to my card? who has my name and address details!.Somebody could have used my card to vote in my name, when I went to the polling station nobody asked me for ID I just gave them my name and address!.

2/ Polling station position was a state secret had to phone the council again to find out that snippet of information.

3/ I only had information from the Lib Dems and the Conservatives about their policies what about the other candidates?.

4/ MEP's who the hell are they no information from any of them at all.

The whole thing is a public disgrace and our leaders wonder why the masses don't vote, maybe if we knew who was running we could make an educated decision. The establishment should hang its head in shame they could not organise a piss up in a brewery..the whole thing just sucks.
