Woohoo! Had more snow this morning, about 3-4 inches or so.
In Newport (I was staying at Lauras) the gritters had not been out anywhere, so everything was slippery and slidey and the roads were a mess.
Why did they not look at the forecast and get out there with the trucks?! Stupid councils.
Also walked into work 1/2 an hour late because of it as the bus came early (obviously to try to make up time or something), grr.

Quite bored here, as you can tell.

I decided to send back my phone, the P900, that I got 2 weeks ago.
It’s just not the type of phone I need right now, it’s too big, and I won’t use it for what it is designed for (wireless connectivety) as much as I anticipated I would.
I decided to go for the Motorola V600 instead.
Getting hold of it was the first job, everywhere had no stock.
Apparently Orange had done a mass recall because of software problems, and stocks are only just filtering back through now.
But, none-the-less still managed to get hold of one after calling at least 30 (no exaggeration) phone companies.

It’s great looking, has a great quality camera (much better quality than the Sony Ericsson in-built cameras) and comes with a bluetooth headset, which is a great addition to the package for no extra cost.
Have found a few flaws so far, but I’m sure I’ll be able to work them out.
First thing is, although the manual says it can, I don’t seem to be able to setup email.
Doing it as the manual says just does not work, I cannot find the email setup menu!
Secondly, I’ve tried to bluetooth my entire phonebook over from my SE T610, the phone locks on, downloads the phonebook, but then does nothing with it. Possible file incompatibility problems there, I’ll have to find out.
Lots more playing to do, and not back to work until Thursday, woohoo.

I’ve decided to bring pBlog.com back from the depths of my hard drive, with a slightly updated design might I add (I do stress *slightly*).
You can view it at http://pblog.com/index.php for the moment, but www.pblog.com will work as soon as I start updating it again.
Wheee!

Spent half the day at Laura’s salon today getting my hair done :p
It’s been cut again, styled a little differently (much more messy) and now i have blonde tips too! woohoo 
My hair was starting to get boring again, so I had to have something done.
Yes, I know I need a shave

For the second year in a row, to mark St David’s day (the patron saint of Wales), the Empire State building in New York city will be lit up in red and green lights.
I think this is a great symbol not just for Wales, but for NY too, to show that they recognise us smaller nations of whom I would have thought they would not have even heard of before.

Update
Google also had a great logo on the day, see below
