Number one: as previously discussed on this here blog. Bank of Scotland are a bunch of useless twats. A pox upon them, I’m moving all my accounts elsewhere and I hope they collapse.

In other news: my Playstation 3 came back from the Sony repair shop. It developed a disc read error immediately after the last system update (hmmm). Annoyingly this was the very day I had purchased the one good exclusive of the festive period, Little Big Planet, so I was quite displeased. I’m more displeased to discover that a day’s leave from work, a ten day wait and an epic journey to collect has resulted in a repaired console that won’t even boot. It is more broken than it was when it left. Apparently they don’t check the repairs.

They dropped the ball with a sub-par console, and the support is shit. A pox upon them also.

Updated the link to Rug Cutting, I meant to link to Glasgow’s premier night out – not some random rug maker. Apologies!

So I’m off to Vancouver tomorrow with my good lady. I’ve decided to resurrect the stinking carcass of this neglected blog and post some stuff about our travels. We’re all packed and ready to go, though we may well go over our weight allowance with the sheer number of travellers cheques that Bank of Scotland have sent us.

A mix of large and small we asked for. What we got was over one hundred $20(£10) Travellers cheques and over one hundred $50(£25) travellers cheques. So tonight I’ll be signing one hundred cheques.

One hundred cheques…

Idiots!
