As much as I love my new iPhone, I am not too pleased with the latest software update – proof that it isn’t only Microsoft who can screw up.
The maps app, which I think is really great, has been changed. All distance is now in kilometres and there is no way to change it back to miles.
I think Apple are trying to force us all to go metric. Either that or the American programmers don’t think anybody else exists outside their country.

- It’s On The Way
I decided to take the plunge and take out a new mobile phone contract, complete with a brand new Samsung S8! I've been told it's out for delivery today, and as my wife has a day off work, she'll be able to take it for me. Exciting times....
- The Samsung Galaxy S8
I regularly check the trends on Twitter. This is mainly to stay up to date with the latest news and find our who's died - it's basically a Births, Marriages and Deaths page for the famous. One trend that caught my eye this afternoon was Samsung Galaxy S8. My mobile phone is nearly three years old....
- A Shopping Trip
Yesterday, I made one of my rare trips into Bath city centre. One of the reasons I try to avoid town is because it is big, busy and full of annoying people. The first part of our visit involved going to the post office. Outside a group of Special Brew-drinking tramps had a fight over... - Sorry, Steve Jobs
Apologies to Mr Jobs, but I have joined the dark side. After over two and a half years on a SIM-Only plan, with a now ancient iPhone 4, I decided enough was enough and it was time to get something for my money – a new phone. Today, I ditched O2 and joined Vodafone (something... - Feeling Hot
... well, my iPhone is.
I think it may not be very well.

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.
