Marc’s Musings reviewed

This post was written by Marc in the category(ies) News 5 Comments »

A few months ago, when I thought this weblog was going to be even vaguely interesting, I submitted it to be reviewed at the weblog review.

Well now it has.  You can read the review here. Not exactly the greatest review but I find it hard to disagree with anything they have to say.  I think that if I put my heart and soul into this and/or had any writing/web design talent then I might be more upset wink

Thanks to friendly, helpful scriptygoddess Lynda I now have the functionality within pMachine that expands and collapses any extended entries within this page instead of opening the individual entry.

Thanks Lynda! :star:

picWell hi everybody, long time no speak!  Things have been hectic here in Cramerland.  My weekend was spent eating and drinking with friends (again) and the time just absolutely flew.

The best thing and the most time consuming however was buying and setting up my new toy :vbg:  The time spent on this pretty much totaled my weekend but it really has been worth it…….

British Telecom, in their infinite wisdom, decided last night to suspend my ISDN account!  As this account was a business one I never checked the emails and therefore didn’t see the warning they sent me a while back about using the internet too much!

The product is called BT Connect Lite Anytime and offers Unmetered Internet access

What this actually means is they charge you a monthly fee rather than charge you by the time you spend on-line.

Italy go outAfter 19 contiguous days, 56 games, 147 goals, 16 red and 245 yellow cards the World Cup tournament pauses for a rest.  We’ve reached the ? final stage and 3 of the 4 favourites are out.  South Korea’s extra time golden goal put paid to Italy yesterday and there is now a 2 day break until the next round of knock-out games commence.

07:30 on Friday is when England goes mad again.  It should be a good game against Brazil but I must say – I don’t fancy England’s chances…….  Not only do we go through the “group of death” but then we get the quarter-final of death!

I must say that it is very strange not to hear commentary in the background!
