    What made you happy today?

    Slightly delayed, but I got my new car back on Monday (only bought it a week or so prior) after it had to go back to the dealership because of a faulty sensor. All seems to be fine now, though, which is the key thing. Also, last week, I received my OU degree results, having studied for a BSc in...

    What made you happy today?

    Ponder the futility of existence? :p Nah, I'm just enjoying having more time to myself. Getting on top of cleaning my house is an important one, as I've kinda neglected that over the past few months!

    What made you happy today?

    Technically yesterday, but after six years, I sat my last OU exam and finished my studying! Just have to wait a few weeks for the results now, but I think I've done fairly well overall. It's been weirdly nice to not have any studying or revision to do today, and I can finally do more odd bits...

    Companies That You Expect to Disappear Soon

    Yeah, agreed. I find it quite frustrating, really - used to be able to get a good variety of books in there, but there's nowhere near the same variety now as there used to be. Also, the stores often seem disorganised and with a confusing layout.

    Bond Street "temporary rebrand"

    It's just gonna get people confused if they see signage that's a different colour to what's expected, especially on that part of the Central line.

    Poll: Views on tattoos

    After years of dithering, I've finally made an appointment to get my second tattoo done next weekend. Only been nearly eight years since my first one, and over two years since I came up with the idea for the one I'm getting done, but the fact remains it's happening at long last. :)

    Autism

    easyJet from EDI-BHX. Got BA from LHR-JFK in September, which should be good. Haven't flown with them since October 2006 when I went to Barcelona with school on board a 767-300ER, and I should get a 777 of some description to JFK.

    Autism

    Yeah, this is very true. I did take a flight on my own back in January (was only Edinburgh to Birmingham, and I did have a friend with me up until my gate was called, but it still counts), and it went pretty well. Only issue I had was that I ended up in an exit row and didn't quite realise I...

    Manchester Airport security queues

    I worked in security at Manchester for a few months last year, and it was quite common for Security B to be where most passengers went through in T1. It's such an unpleasant space for anybody (both staff and passengers), largely because of the low ceilings and the lack of room for anybody to get...

    A scam phone calls and emails discussion.

    I've been having a lot of this recently as well. Joke's on the spammers, though - I'm gay! :p

    Favourite Tube Stock (Past and/or Present)?

    I'm gonna admit I'm a sucker for the S Stock (particularly the S8), as air conditioning on the Tube is so good when it's really hot in the summer months.

    Favourite Clothing range

    Outlet shopping is great, though I'll admit that if you go to somewhere like Cheshire Oaks, it can get quite dangerous...:p
