Phone call from MS

2008-02-10T17:49:08Z

Yeah, MS customer service called me on a Saturday, just to let me know they are following the progress of my 360 replacement. I guess they want to make sure the same thing doesn't happen again, getting shipped a faulty machine. Depending on how ...

Problems with seeing how you decay

2008-02-07T20:04:58Z

I guess I was just like everyone else when you are young, you see someone that is older and you think "wow, they are old, I sure hope I don't get like that". The sad thing is looking back then I think I was talking/thinking about people that wer...

Yet another faulty 360, this time straight from the source: MS!!!

2008-02-05T20:34:51Z

Yeah, I finally got the replacement 360 from Microsoft on the 28th January. I set it up, plugged it in, went through the set up procedure on the dashboard, checked a few things out on the marketplace, and then went to open the disc drive door. ...

Another faulty 360.

2008-01-22T09:21:40Z

Well I sent in the 360 yet again. This time the problem was with the Unplayable disc error. Basically I could not play any games or DVD's in the machine. Apparently the fault has something to do with the spindal that holds the disc in place on...

Carbs are not my friend, but they make me feel good - briefly

2007-09-13T16:34:15Z

I am at the stage of the year when I really have very little to no energy to do any exercise. I do like to exercise, but for some reason September, October and November really are low energy times for me. It is then I start to eat lots of food ...

Port Burwell, the end to camping in 2007

2007-09-13T16:23:13Z

I have to say I had a really miserable time camping last weekend. It rained all day the last day we were there. Ruth and I got to the campsite (which was a replacement for Springwater, as apparently it was fully booked for one day) early on the...

I had a good camping weekend at a place called Wheatley. It was a massive camping place close to Windsor. It took about two and a half hours to get there. Now this is the final camping area we set up in. What you see here is the kitchen a...

XBOX 360 update (arrival)

2007-09-04T08:29:06Z

Yes the 360 did get delivered on the 24th August. I got the Premium edition, just the machine though. I did orginally get the core system, but the only different is the chrome effect plastic cover for the disc tray. Not bad really, it does see...

Update on XBOX 360 (episode #3)

2007-08-23T00:48:02Z

Basically still nothing. I phone 18004MYXBOX and I get told by the automated voice that my order has been received and shipped, so expect it within 5 working days. So I figure tomorrow it may come? This is so much bullshit. I am considering j...
