Hello My Name Is James And I Am A…
Amazonaholic.
I just can not get enough of amazon.co.uk they have just about everything you could possibly want to buy and then there is the stuff you buy you did not know you needed.
I love music and movies and technology and spend all my allowance that my good lady Catherine gives me on this site.
At this link below can see a great thing that amazon do called a wish list a great thing for letting the family and friends know as it helps out on those special days and allows you ensure you do not end up with a dozen wooly jumpers (not that I am knocking them).

so you have seen my list on amazon, Do you have a list?
The Internet That Time Forgot.
I have been here on-line for the last hour or so browsing the web and have just realised that I have achieved nothing. I did not go online to do a specific task just to check a couple of the websites that I follow and then basically burned forty minutes doing nothing.
When you sit in front of the world wide web do you only do so to achieve a specific task or do you find yourself burning time and how much time do you think you loose to this? Is this done during the day or night? Do you put other things off to do so?
It’s about time
Well I know it’s been a while but I have been unable to continue with my blogging for a while due to I’ll health an to be honest things are still a bit rocky, however my beloved wife Catherine bought me a early Christmas present as she thought it would make it easier to be able to access the web while sitting in my chair rather than using the family p.c. or a laptop.
I am typing this out on the new apple Ipad using the wordpress app and it is so easy to use. The touch screen is a pleasure to use and you can type at a reasonable rate.
Their is if course all the multimedia and diary and email and web browser all in the same little box if you are considering looking at one and it’s within your budget I would recommend it.
The only thing worth noting is the Ipod does not work with flash due to some spat with Adobe And Apple.
Still alive
Hi just a quick line to say I still around and apologise for not posting for some time as I have not been keeping to well but will be returning as soon as possible.

A New Year.. A New Job?
So just for for the sake of conversation let’s assume two things, you are no longer employed by your previous employer and because the way this change in employment was communicated to you, and after a short investigation the courts have awarded you £/$ 2 million vat/tax free. However there is a condition that you must have some type of employment for at least part time hours ok!
I think I would invest some of my money into my own business. I might open a model shop or a small computer shop or something in between, Work the hours I wanted and be my own boss basically turn a hobby into a job.
What Would You Do?
That’s A Bit Rough…
Get A Baby Sitter And Go……
Well one of the things I did while on my break was to see a few movies and the one I wish to touch on is Avatar. I went to my local IMAX at the Glasgow Science centre and as usual it did not disappoint.
Now not only was it Imax but also in 3D yes that’s right A 3D IMAX film and I must admit it is absolutely amazing. I will not discuss the plot as there is nothing worse so if you have not seen it go, I recommend that you see it in a theatre as soon as possible.
A Little late but…
HELLO
Good morning everybody.
Well We all had a great Christmas and new years was quiet as usual. I know I have not been about for a while and I apologise but I have been taking time out so slow down and take a rest by taking a break from the world.
Thanks to all who visited and posted and were kind enough to ask after me.
So get yet ready for a whole new year of my own brand of humour or tripe!
