I read on the net that the HTC Desire Android phone will be getting an update to 2.2 (Froyo) shortly. From what I can gather it’s going to be happening perhaps as soon as today. Not everyone is set to receive it at the same time as HTC ‘s regional director of Benelux stated, this is most likely due to bandwidth.
Apparently all new Desire’s that are shipped to China will also be featuring 2.2 pre-installed.
I’ve been checking for updates on my phone every hour today, but no sign of it yet..
England my England
Goodbye to my England, so long my old friend
Your days are numbered, being brought to an end
To be Scottish, Irish or Welsh that’s fine
But don’t say you’re English, that’s way out of line.
The French and the Germans may call themselves such
So may Norwegians, the Swedes and the Dutch
You can say you are Russian or maybe a Dane
But don’t say you’re English ever again.
At Broadcasting House the word is taboo
In Brussels it’s scrapped, in Parliament too
Even schools are affected. Staff do as they’re told
They must not teach children about England of old.
Writers like Shakespeare, Milton and Shaw
The pupils don’t learn about them anymore
How about Agincourt, Hastings , Arnhem or Mons ?
When England lost hosts of her very brave sons.
We are not Europeans, how can we be?
Europe is miles away, over the sea
We’re the English from England , let’s all be proud
Stand up and be counted – Shout it out loud!
Let’s tell our Government and Brussels too
We’re proud of our heritage and the Red, White and Blue
Fly the flag of Saint George or the Union Jack
Let the world know – WE WANT OUR ENGLAND BACK !!!!
We went to view another house this evening that we’ve been holding out for. It’s a three bedroom detached in Caldecotte. It’s not available until the end of June (we’d hoped it would be May) but it’s well worth the wait!
It has an entrance porch that has three doors; one for the rear of the garage, one to a side entrance of the back garden and of course one to the house itself.
Inside is spacious with a nice kitchen and a living room/dining room. There’s also a small bathroom underneath the stairs in the hallway.
Upstairs is a small bedroom (which we’ve already earmarked to be our study), the main bedroom with on-suit bathroom, the 2nd bedroom which is another nice sized room and finally the main bathroom.
Everything is nicely decorated and modern looking. The garden is a nice size, it’s going to keep me busy! The kitchen has back door to the garden as well as the living room which has French doors leading out to the patio.
We’re really looking forward to moving in, shame about the delay but at least it gives us more time to save up for furniture..!
This bank holiday weekend was supposed to be a nice weekend. We had moved out of our old apartment and were moving into a new one. We knew there were some minor problems with the property from the time we first viewed it, however we were promised they would be sorted by the time we moved in – they weren’t…
I’ve never seen a Black Swan before but I spotted one from the balcony and quickly ran down to the lake to get some pics.
I’ve had my HTC Desire Android phone for a few days now and I must say most of the stock and HTC apps & widgets are pretty good. There also some excellent apps on the Market too – some of which I’ll list.
My new HTC Desire arrived this morning. It’s full to the brim of awesome! I’ve been waiting for months for a new phone as I lost my old Samsung Innov8 only a few months after getting it so I’ve been stuck with Amy’s hand-me-down phone for nearly a year (feels like longer though) 
Only thing is, Amy was waiting in for the delivery and when the guy turned up he was very freak and tried it on with Amy. He gave her a hug and a kiss on the cheek, but then came back later and tried kissing her and wanted to come in for a coffee! Reported his arse though, so hopefully he won’t be doing that again. F*cking arsehole!!
Well it’s finally here, I’ve reached 30!! I wasn’t exactly looking forward to this particular birthday because I guess I’m not as young as I used to be. To be honest it’s just another number and I don’t feel like a thirty year old, I don’t act like one and I certainly don’t look like one
I had a good time, Amy was excellent, she brought me breakfast in bed, forced me to wear a dressing gown and slippers she bought to make me feel old (didn’t get me a pipe just yet though) and even cooked me dinner.
It’s the last day of work, there’s snow on the ground and I’m actually looking forward to tomorrow! It’s going to to be the first time I’ve spent a Christmas with Amy and we’re cooking our own Christmas dinner (which should be interesting).
I’ve finally got all the presents sorted out and I just need to wrap them. Amy has wrapped everything because for some reason she seems to enjoy it. She wasn’t interested in my idea of getting her to wrap her own presents I bought her, so I guess I’ll have to do that tonight
It’s been a pretty miserable weekend with the weather, but I was keeping an eye on it and it looked like Bank Holiday Monday was going to turn out alright. So today Amy and I decided rather than laying around the house doing nothing at all, we’d go out and enjoy a nice sunny day out and about. continue reading…
