Quick one to let you know The Globe have got their liquor licence at last.
They do great pies.

There’s a good pub quiz at The Wheel on a Tuesday night. And one of the guys from Hardy’s plays the guitar. You can get up and have a sing.
Our team of 2 and a half people won a bottle of gin:
However, feeling very, very average today. Loud Dropkick Murphys required.
Sounds like rubbish to me:
Due to the recent severe weather conditions in the Asia region, there have been multiple submarine cable faults which are affecting different forms of international traffic throughout Asia and the US. Some customers may experience traffic congestions when trying to connect to these areas. Our systems are in normal operation and we are working closely with partners to divert traffic, we apologize for any inconvenience caused.
Some sites worked (BBC, StackOverflow, Google, Demonoid, EZTV) some didn’t (Apple, Yahoo, Hotmail, Mininova, Twitter, this site). Some of those that worked, loaded very slowly. The sites that didn’t load, just wouldn’t load and timed out.
So, maybe a mix of DNS problems and broken cables?
Seems to be almost back to normal today.
This was the first time I’ve found a use for Twitter. Real-time web and all that.
[Smartone-Vodafone connectivity/DNS was fine via my phone, so I could use Tweetie]
Great:
Also the support number they give on their contact page doesn’t work!
UPDATE: this number did work in the end. Thanks Smog for the reminder!
My new iPhone 3GS has issues. I think. The screen goes very dark every now and then (auto-brightness is not on BTW), the screen is very yellow and the camera just sucks – grainy, dark, out of focus. It simply cannot be this bad so it has to be an issue!
See!?
We spent an hour here being interviewed to see if they would let FMPMSPD back in to HK. They let her in for 7 days. No egg!
Should have ordered it the other week when it came out and shipped in 24 hours. Now I have to wait a couple of weeks:
FMPMSPD has broken her phone … just the excuse I needed to buy this for me and give my old 3G to her!
They are asking $7900-$8300 on the street for a 32GB 3GS. If you tell them they are dreaming, they get all upset and feisty. You can buy online at the Apple Store, unlocked, no contract for $6300. Cannot! Yes you can, just need to wait a couple of weeks. Need contract. No you don’t, they are unlocked. OK, you try! I will. I shut my mouth! I shut my mouth! I shut my mouth! I shut my mouth!
Eh?! I shut my mouth? Er, OK sunshine, I’ll wait a couple of weeks and save nearly two grand. Toooodle-oooo motherfucker.
