Yes my broadband has finally been upgraded to 2Mb/sec.  I didn’t ask for it but I’m not complaining.  I did notice things were being sucked down faster earlier today and I put it down to my old age and everything now appears faster.  I just checked my email and there is a message to say I’ve been upgraded….yipeee.

On this subject of checking my mail I’m still getting spammed from the same IP address 81.178.42.4.   When I ping it appears to come from dsl.pipex.com.  I’ve emailed their support  department and they said it comes from a dynamically assigned account.  Well it cannot be that dynamically assigned because I’ve been getting send virus attached emails for a month now.  All they have offered is that if I am not happy to close my account.  Hello!!! I don’t have an account with you I’m getting spammed from one of your accounts.. Sort it out Pipex.  What should I do answers on a post card please?  I’ve debated putting a forward email account on my Pop3 box to forward all mail straight to there support department as they always come to the same user names such as administrator and support.   

So INXS have a new singer I have been watching Rock Star INXS on VH1.  I found it great fun, it was like pop idol with decent songs and really good performers.  I must admit the guy that won wouldn’t have been my first choice but the other two runners up I think will have quite a future ahead of them.  

So what else has happened? 

Well done Fernando Alonso for becoming the youngest F1 champion ever.  Caught the tail end of the A1 racing on sky, looks promising plenty of action but I don’t know if they are going to show the whole race or just highlights.

Oh I almost forgot, I wanted to forget but unfortunately it’s all come flooding back to me.  Yes Northampton Town Football Club lost again.  The first half was entertaining despite them being one nil down, the second half was duller than at ditch at dusk.  Next year I want a half price season ticket as I only get half an entertaining game.  To make katters worse I’ve got a ticket to watch them in a local derby on Tuesday night against Rushden and I’ve got to sit in the Rushden stand with my mate who comes from there.  It copuld be a vary painful night.

The Driveway we have been having paved is 99.9% complete with just a bit of pointing to do on the front step and a another job that I am not allowed to mention as it’s not strictly within the rules.  Interested email me and I’ll let you into the secret.
