If you are on the look out for some affordable ceiling fans then check out Farreys.com, they are a modern fan company who sell every thing from ellington fans to hunter fans. They also stock lots of other items for the home, my mum used them a few months ago and was really happy with the service she got from them!

Social Network sites are, undeniably, awesome.
Who even has to do any work at work these days when you have sites like Facebook, Twitter and Acobay to distract you? The best thing is your boss is as likely to be distracted by them as you so you won’t even get in trouble for it
Acobay is a new one I just joined a few days ago, you share stuff on it basically, so you register an account and then share the things you like or care about — for example products, people, even websites — and the more stuff you share the bigger your network becomes because it then connects you to people also sharing those things.
The statistics on the Acobay home page make for some interesting reading as they list the top items in certain categories — Dell is the most shared item in the computers category for example, which is good news for me as I just got a brand spanking new Dell laptop today

I just found out that a new show started, it’s a spin off show from Top Chef which I absolutely love — I only started watching it in season 5 and have the first 4 seasons downloaded and ready to watch when I find the time.
The new spin off called Top Chef Masters is basically the same format but the contestants are chefs who are already well established, it sounds awesome and I am going to have to get my hands on it
Watching the show always makes me want to visit the jk adams website and spend a small fortune on every thing from slinky jk adams wine racks to gorgeous wooden jk adams cutting boards. I would love my kitchen to be as well kitted out and fancy looking as the ones on Top Chef

I have just spent half the day around my neighbours house trying to sort out his satellite internet, I say half the day, I am exaggerrating of course — I was there about 40 minutes, but it felt like half the day when it’s sunny outside and there are a lot of other things I would rather be doing.
The upshot is that his provider did some scheduled maintenance yesterday that went a bit wrong and he’s had to change some settings on his router to get it working again.
It’s a farce really, how is someone who has no clue about these things meant to work that out on their own? And they were rather rude to him/me on the phone, talking to us as though we were being stupid!
I have told him to move to hughes internet instead, he doesn’t seem keen on the idea because he’s ‘happy where he is’ but I will talk him round, hughesnet internet offer great reliable service and actually work out cheaper in the long run than what he is currently using — even if it wasn’t I would suggest he move there because I am so annoyed at the way we were spoken to.
Hughes Net internet here we come.
