Hey Guy's,
Well I have had one unlucky week firstly all the rubbish with the bank, now Thursday night I was out having a beverage or two and lost my phone while giving my number out. Well I received a e-mail from my "spiritual guide" who has informed me that from march 26th I am going to have good luck and my money problems are going to be sorted and blah blah blah, always worth a laugh but literately after the week I had any day after this is going to be lucky.
Just picked up a new phone the Samsung GT-S3350 which in honesty has so many features it is just mad, the fact that there is applications for facebook now just shows how the generations have changed from a phone is they're for calls, to text messages is the only way, to now you pretty much could get the phone to wipe your ass. Though I was pleasantly surprised when I walked into the vodaphone shop to get my sim card cancelled and with just a bit of typing and a scan my phone number was transferred onto a new sim card , got to love technology for that I was so worried about changing my number.
Remember if you don't share your opinion do you really have one?

Banks and Bonus
Hey Guy's,
Well an annoying day for me, found some dodgy transactions on my bank account so as with anyone I called up the bank to cancel my card. When I called up they said fine cancelled the card then informed me of the address they would issue the new card to, it was my old address. I explained this and they agreed my statements came to my new address but when I changed my address in branch apparently they didn't change where my card would be issued just where my statements would be sent, please explain to me why anyone would get their statements sent to one address and the cards to another. Well now I am stuck without a card for at least ten days, now it is a stroke of luck I bought some food the other day that with any luck will keep me going but its still a serious inconvience that if I want to spend any money I have to go into branch just to get the cash out.
On the other side of the coin a while ago me and a few friends were talking about the banks more to the point bank managers, it is amasing that the country has had to bail out banks but they still seem to be able to afford to give themselves a bonus of over 1 million pounds. Now my father has always said that you live to your means, but lets be honest with a million pounds 90% of people if they were careful with there money and invested wisely could live off a million for the rest of there lives, so why in gods name would anyone need a bonus that big?. It just seems like greed to me though the argument back was they are taxed heavily on the bonus, well i'll be honest if I was earning enough to be taxed £1000 per month I would be over the bloody moon so I doubt that they are crying much.
That's just my thought of the day, remember if don't share your opinion do you really have one?.

Get tough on Libya, or get Libya taken over?
Hey Guy's,
After a very boring law lecture I have dropped by to talk to you, its been a tiring week though I have got next to nothing sorted. After a long and annoying time I finally have a washing machine again so YEY on that front atleast.
I have been trying to keep up on the Libyan story as I think this will be one to watch, with the development so far and the civil unrest I am worried with the americans getting involved. President Obama has said that they are speaking to many Libyan groups to try and stop the unrest and topple this horrible dictatorship, does this sound familiar to anyone?. I have no doubt the Americans have some good intentions but is this going to end up in another siutaion where they end up trying to put a drone government in charge and then supply them weapons?. The Russians have gone with the easier stand of just stating that the violence must stop which of course is a bit of a DUR moment, though you have got to think if the Russians got involved in anything would many country's stop them? I doubt it.
Well that's my thought of the day, remember if you dont share your opinion do you really have one?.
