Hello


NCIS: Los Angeles title cardImage via Wikipedia


How are we all out there.

The health I am feeling better, a lot more energy to use.

Technology devices:-

Sky is great fun, I worked out not to try and watch 3 channels on sky as it cancels a recording. This means I sky+ a few things like the Stargate and Startrek franchises, rugby, football, NCIS: Los Angeles and music. It definately means I don't watch Jeremy Kyle Show.

I am definately getting used to #Iphone 3gs. Some of the apps are good and some aint. Dragon does not understand me (or it just doesn't understand west of scotland). I got told about rugby scorer app and the timer doesn't work. I also had to unlink foursquare to facebook. My o2 signal has been rubbish at home lately. The wifi is fine at home but currently my phone has no signal. The other main issue is battery power. I did buy an extra battery off ebay so that makes it easier.Good apps include the sky related ones, nextbuses which is useful when you have a bus pass. The mapping is really good as well.

My music gallery (which I need as radio station apps need wifi (which isnt largely publically used down here) has Usher, Foo Fighters, Katy Perry, Emma's Imagination, Eminem, Jon Allen and a few others.

I also use the phone for podcasts ofcourse. I listen to Chris Moyles, Social Media Podcast, the Thumbcast (thanks for getting me to watch Metropolis) and I am listening to quiet News day while I type this.

I have finally decided to go to tomorrows New Media Breakfast in Glasgow tomorrow. I have thought about going to this for a while. I have listened to just about all the podcasts. I will finally see some of the guys I listen to all the time.

As Cumnock RFC webmaster I use twitter, email, facebook, audioboo and club website via pitchero to communicate our message. I do have this little blog as well for me. I used to use it more with pictures but Iphone doesn't use blogger. I do have lots of time as I don't work due to health issues.

So this morning I had 3 health people to see, that's done now, tomorrow is Glasgow and a train at 6.30am tomorrow morning. Saturday I have bbq at woodroad park in Cumnock and Sunday Cumnock RFC with lots of games.

hello

Well I am having a fairly quiet couple of days. Last night I really enjoyed The Gadget Show on five. I thought the Iphone would win.

Then I went and watched Dave with Live at the Apollo and Mock the Week and had a good laugh. I then moved over to Graham Norton Show on BBC1 and Robert Downey Jr and Ed Byrne were great on it. The new Sherlock Holmes movie looks good. Maybe I need to read a proper book for some background.

Then got some sleep and I watched the Wright stuff on Channel 5 this morning. Austin Healy was talking a lot of sense when it came to the BA staff. I am dis positioned not to agree with ex england rugby players ofcourse, but Austin made sense. Its also bin day so I have done that as well.

I also see Emma Bunten is replacing Ruthie Henshaw as judge on dancing on ice. Ruthie is doing Chicago. Emma doesn't skate but is judging the dancing.

Oh yeah and Rage against the machine is ahead of #xfactor (good).

Now its getting towards lunch time and I am getting hungry.

See you all around.

Scrum V, STV Rugby and my own internet sites

Cumnock RFC Chatboard Link

I just put this on Cumnockrugby chatbaord, I know I don't talk Cumnock RFC on here, but this wasn't officially sanctioned Cumnock RFC news, so it's more about me than news on Cumnock RFC. So here it is:-

Some of you guys may know I try to watch Srcum V on Friday nights and the welsh legend Rick O'Shea. Its on the BBC red button from 7pm. Cardiff blues had an amazing try just before the end of the first half. They are playing Munster. beever asked me if Jamie Roberts was playing. I text scrum to 81012 and got an answer oh "not soon enough" from Rick.

Also if you don't watch fanscrene, watch STV rugby on Sundays at 5.30pm. It is now giving Magners league highlights on all that weekends games.

I forgot to put my name on the text, so just got the answer.

If any of the rest of you use twitter, remember to follow me on twitter for Cumnock RFC news (even when Jim and Harry post on the blog, you get a tweet from me), my normal tweets including #followfriday and my thomasblah (nothing to do with rugby)

Well what have we all been upto. At work Rachel is off sick so after working for an hour last Thursday, Steve did some helping. Myra is dealing with soem of my duties when I am not there and when it comes to merchandising they are good so we are dealing with ordering ourselfves. I even had to do the rota for this week (and probably next week).

So on Thursday I am having a FULL day off. I have been getting up at 6am almost every day since going back from holiday about 10 days ago.

Rugby wise I finally have the web pages for the old cumnockrugby and I need to do some work on them. I aint fully flinging myself into that yet. The web design lessons from the winter are coming in handy.

TV wise I am glad to see Catriona Shearer get anchor role on BBC Reporting Scotland 630pm show.

Torchwood is great this week, watched it last night, ace and tonight wasn't much different, including John Barrowman naked.
I am keeping watching this all week.

I also watched Chuck tonight on Virgin 1+1 (2nd series) and quite enjoyed it.

Well keep saying hello to me on twitter and even comment on here. I do promise to reply.
