Change Of Address
Well, I've done it. Fed up with the way Blogger seems horribly bugged, and unable to get an RSS feed I've shifted my allegiance to the more superior Blogware.com
So for the new incarnation of my blog, called "Random Acts Of Reality" just Click

14 Days Later
I promised two weeks of Blogging and I managed it. I've found it an interesting exercise, and not the waste of time that I thought it might be, for one thing I've realised that I seriously need to move from Blogger for a number of reasons. The first is that the main page doesn't always load fully, cutting off my posts. Also there is a lack of RSS, which I would have been willing to pay for, but they managed to lose it in the Blogger-Blogger Pro mix and match, and finally I'd really like emailing posts to the page...
Any suggestions as to where I might want to take my business?

Why Do You Want One Wheel
They are thinking of creating a one wheeled bike. I'd like to know why you would want such tech when normal bikes get along through traffic just fine.

Some People Just Can't Wait
So, there I am in my Ambulance helping a bloke who was actually quite ill, when all of a sudden the back doors fly open and some idiot decides to start berating me because I'm blocking the road. Needless to say I am not pleased at this, not only because it is embarrassing for the patient, but also because of the sheer bloody cheek of the woman. When I tell he (very politely mind you) bugger off, she replies with the old favourite "I'm a tax-payer, I pay your wages". At this I remind her that my patient, my crewmate and I also pay taxes. At this she is a bit non-plussed, yet still she continues to moan that there is no need for me to block the road. As an aside I did need to block the road, I don't do it on purpose, but it is more important (to me at least, but obviously not to women who are much more important than anything I'm doing) to get to the patient quickly. This womans moaning then gets other drivers upset and they start honking their horns, and the only way I get rid of the woman who was in such a hurry was to pull the door shut after me and tell her to imagine her relative in the ambulance...
I didn't hurry treating the patient either.

Single
Although I do love my job dearly, there are of course a number of disadvantages. At the moment I am a "relief" worker, which means although I have a main station, I can be sent anywhere in London to cover absences and holidays. I also don't have a regular crewmate, and am essentially the whore of the L.A.S.
So at the moment I am sitting on my backside at my main station with no-one to work with, watching daytime TV.
Bored, bored, bored, bored...
Of course at some point in the next twelve hours I could be rushed off anywhere in London. Being on strange stations is actually quite good fun, as you get to meet new people and lets face it in this job moving around London just means "same shit, different scenery".
But at the moment I'm bored...

Retreat From The World
Well...
I've just got Star Wars Galaxies so I'm off to retreat from the world for a bit. All I've got to do now is remember to eat...
