Off On One Again

A blog of no interest to anyone apart from me. Highly egotistical. Somewhat ironic that once upon a time people kept diaries secret. Now we publish to the world, even if no-one is listening (or reading). This may include stuff on Greece, history, rugby, cricket, Health and Safety, Wales, genealogy and West Hendred. It will almost certainly include complete rants about things I find amusing, interesting or annoying. There is no guarantee that anyone will share my views!

About Me

My Photo
Name:
Location: Didcot, Oxon, United Kingdom

37, forgetful, cynical, sarcastic, would like to have been a struggling artist but ended up with a PhD in chemistry. Got bored with being in the lab, fell into Health and Safety and now can't get out of science without taking a pay cut. Rather enjoying the diversion into Environmental compliance. Unfit and terminally depressed. Lovely wife Sam - just about all that keeps me together. Son Rafferty GFX Hall born 24 Oct 2005 is growing up quickly. Greyhound (Buddy), cats (PJ and Boots), tortoises (Tinkerbell and Compost). Learning Greek at Evening Classes. Play Cricket badly for Didcot CC, haven't played rugby for years and am a little annoyed about that. According to my medical, am clincially obese. Earn far too little. Completed H&S and Environmental Diplomas

Crazy Frog

Apparently ITV have had so many complaints about the series of Crazy Frog ringtone adverts that they have set up a specific phone line for people to complain. They said that they couldn't do anything about the campaign: they are a commercial company so couldn't turn down £5m of advertising revenue (twice every single ad break for 2 weeks). They will make sure that it does not happen again.

As far as possible, I have a policy of refusing to buy anything which has been advertised unless I was buying it before it was advertised. I'll go for whatever was not being advertise, if I have a choice.
