Remember this one?
Well here’s a weird thing. Today we had three buildings officially opened at the OU. Not only were they opened by our chancellor Baroness Betty Boothroyd but Eugene from Big Brother was filming the whole thing on his handycam. This sort of thing does not happen everyday at the OU!
The reason for Eugene’s presence? Well [...]

After happily receiving Sky digital for the last five years my digibox packed in. Not a bad innings considering most electrical appliances are designed to last for a very small time these days.

Last nights episode was particularly odd as Sean McNamara discovered that his best mate and co-surgeon Christian Troy was actually the father of his son Matt.

Must see TV for tonight: Who Killed Kirsty MacColl? – a BBC4 documentary on possibly the best English singer-songwriter of all time. I’ve always been a huge fan and as long as I can locate the little bijou that is BBC4 amongst the sea of crap on my Sky digibox I shall be watching.
