Been away from this blog for a few days. There are reasons. Work aside, there’s a few other web sites I maintain which needed attention lately – one being ShiteDrivers which features a new entry today from me about kids. They can be shite drivers too, you know. The ShiteDrivers site has been shortlisted for the Irish Blog Awards – which gives me an excuse to stick on my best suit and head to Dublin on March 1st!
Another site I maintain is the Dundalk FM 100 one – which is also based on WordPress. The latest additions are podcasts and YouTube videos (one can be seen on the RehabCare on Air page) plus a full schedule and loads more besides including live football scores and commentary!
My own sites aside, it’s amusing to see Marks and Spencer making a slight cock-up, in trying to sell a lingerie model (with ‘durable hardwood feet’) on their web site. Great value at only £1,549!
Via Damien… iPhone’s available in Ireland… how trustworthy does this look?
Ralph Wiggum for President! Oh yes! … Do you “dig the wig”?
Ruairi thinks it never happens that you’re waiting for ages for a bus and then two come along at once… I beg to differ. Happened to me loads of times when I lived in Dolphin’s Barn in Dublin.
As Conor Pope reports, BT can be pretty nasty too when it comes to billing for their broadband ’service’ (or lack thereof)
Finally, from the “ooh that’s entertaining… and clever… and incredibly nerdy” department (and via Michèle) comes this… a tune made entirely of Windows sounds:

You wanna know the strangest thing? The thought about buses occured to me whilst I was right next to Dolphin’s Barn, waiting for the 19 bus. Two of them NEVER come at once! NEVER!!
Ah, I’m thinking of the 77 that goes to Tallaght (via Dolphin’s Barn). They must shag like rabbits down at Eden Quay and multiply before setting off on that (daunting) journey…
