Nope, I am not on about those annoying mutant imps found in Doom.
The imp I want is something totally different – an Integrated Media Player – otherwise known as the BBC iPlayer. This is a project the BBC have been working on for what seems like years (hang on, it has been!). Basically, it allows users to download BBC TV shows from the internet. For someone like me, who no longer has Sky+, it is a great invention.
After 3 years of testing and trials, the BETA (yes, you read that right) version was released on Friday. The BBC announced the news to everyone via TV, radio, internet and carrier pigeon. I signed up on Friday evening and was told that I would receive my login details shortly – they are yet to arrive.
It seems I am not the only person awaiting the almighty userID and password required to access the iPlayer. My friend, Mr. Watkins is also without access, as are various users of the Digital Spy forums. Annoyingly, another one of my friends has TWO accounts. One of which he gave to me. Due to complications though, I wasn’t able to use it.
So, this is a plea, no, a THREAT to the BBC…
GIVE ME MY IMP LOGIN DETAILS OR WOGAN GETS IT!!!

- A Sticky Decision
Considering that Leeds are now a Premier League team, is it time to start collecting stickers again?
... - I Was Going To Blog
... but my laptop has decided to perform the biggest update in the world.
It's been stuck on 27% since what feels like the year 1927, so your guess is as good as mine as to when it will finish and allow me to blog again.
... - KWYJIBO
I found an IQ Test online today.
I must admit - it was a lot shorter and easier than the one Bart cheated on, during that episode of The Simpsons, some stupidly long time ago! Despite its age, I am yet to see a Kwyjibo on a David Attenborough documentary.
There are only three questions in this... - Power Cut
I had a power cut today. I'm pointing the finger of blame at Storm Hannah. Bitch.
Losing electricity is always a shocking and distressing experience. It's up there with your water being cut off, or a sudden disappearances of all oxygen and air.
Imagine if I had been blogging at the time of the thoughtless power interruption.... - Happy Birthday To… ??? (Part 1)
March 12th.
It was a very special birthday yesterday...
You may already be aware of who it was for - if not, perhaps you noticed the rather jazzy Google logo?
In case you still don't know what the hell I am on about, the Internet turned 30 yesterday... although there are many who still question the correct date...
About Me
So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?
If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.
However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
