I usually lose track of dates, but this morning on the way to work, Terry Wogan mentioned that today is Friday 13th! I instantly imagined myself veering off the road into a ditch or something. So I managed to get to work unscathed, and had a fairly worthwhile day – OK, so what I was doing didn’t quite work (I shan’t go into it, its boring techy geeky stuff) but it was an otherwise hazzard free day. I came home, and so far its all been OK. Who knows, aliens could land and abduct the house or something before midnight still.
I’ve been playing with my iPod more lately, and there’s a few things that niggle me. The menu system can be a sod to get around at times, but on the whole I do love the thing. Having so much music in such a little device is wonderful. It really comes into its own when on the train/tube – put it on shuffle and leave it. I was dragging up some wierd combinations of songs on my travels – standing in Earls Court station listening to some “Romanian Gypsy music” was certainly odd, but cool all at once. Its a fun toy, that’s for sure.
