New blog

Well, I've set up a blog again and can't think of much to say right now, typical! Maybe now it's done I'll get round to actually writing something for a change... (stranger things have happened)

Mercury (Virgo's ruling planet), traditionally associated with communication, is retrograde at the moment (until Sunday, actually). I don't mean that it's wearing vintage Dior and fully-fashioned stockings; no, I mean that Mercury, in relation to the Earth, appears to be going backwards.

Hmmm... we're living in a built-up area in York, not out in the sticks... I don't see why the speed is so low. I think we might have to go back to NTL when the Wanadoo contract expires in September. The only problem for me at the mo is the wireless router we bought is absolute merde. It's a Dlink we bought from PC World on a whim, and it's a complete waste of money.
