Arriva And The Bus Route Of Doom
Missed my bug this morning. It seems that Arriva carried out some changes to the local bus timetables at the weekend. This much I knew about. I also know that my bus would now be leaving the bus station at 0740 (rather than the 0750… Continue reading
Amazon Pre-Order For Half-Life 2
I can’t believe that it’s been 13 and a half months since I pre-ordered Half-Life 2 on Amazon. I went to check on my order earlier today: It seems that my delivery estimate hasn’t been fixed – I can still (apparently) expect to receive my… Continue reading
