I have just managed to get my mac working again after what Skype did to it.
Here's the message I sent them:
"Skype trashed my mac OS X installation
I downloaded Skype for my mac mini which uses mac OS X 10.4.11...
I installed Skype and tried a test call to test my headset.
I got no sound on my headset and clicked the red phone icon in Skype to hang-up and Skype crashed itself and crashed mac OS X and trashed the installation.
I had to wipe my mac's hard drive and re-install mac OS X.
I will not be attempting to use your program again as it is obviously flawed in a major way."
I can't understand how anyone would use such a program when it's so flaky as to cause irrepairable damage to a computer installation.

Scottish Banknotes...
Regarding Scottish Banknotes...
Mentioned that I have some interesting commemorative ones.
Thought I'd post them here for people to see...
Here's the first one that Commemorated the first meeting of the Scottish Parliament. Note that the building shown was the temporary home until the current building was built.

Stench from below GRRRR!!!
The old bat down stairs has burned her dinner again :-(
My flat, as usual, stinks of her burnt meal.
I really wish her family would hurry up and put her in a home. When I lived in Scotland, the old boy downstairs from me burned his dinner twice in a couple of months and ended up in a home. So, twice or more a week every week should have got her downstairs in a home by now...
It really is unpleasant having to suffer the stench from below several times a week.

Car Problems Continued... :-(
Car wouldn't start when I wanted to leave work so had to e the RAC out...
It's now at the garage to get a new alternator -- more expense :-(
RAC man confirmed that the alternator wasn't charging and strted me with a battery pack and disconnected that and followed me to the garage. Just as well he did follow me as I stalled on the way and he then left the battery pack connected to my battery and had me finish the journey with the battery pack to power the car. It was a bit scary when I stalled as I was in the fast lane on a busy dual carriageway.

"Being Human" on BBC3...
Was watching TV and channel surfing last night on cable and stumbled on a programme called "Being Human" on BBC3. As Virgin seem to have lost all of Saturday on Catch-up, I couldn't watch Casualty tonight so, looked for this programme (I had planned to wait and watch it with R as he likes one of the actors he played the junior officer on the Titanic spaceship on the Dr Who Christmas special and was in "The History Boys" as well).
It was really good :-) pity it's not a series and just a one off...

Oh, and it seemed to be set in Bristol :-)

Valentines...
I was just getting to the stage that I may tidy away my Valentines card that R gave me.
It's so sweet that I decided to take a digital photo of it to share it with the world :-)
Not sure if I should photograph the one I gave him (it got left here on display for another week as it was forgotten in the getting to the bus station drama) as it's more laddish than romantic...
Car Problems :-( continued
Car started with the battery having been charged butr did judder a bit on the way to work and on the way back a few times each way.
Checked with a colleague the voltages I need to check to make sure the alternator is working. Haven't checked as some cunt has parked taking up the only 2 off street parking spaces left (only 3 spaces and they hog 2! Grrrrrr!).
I'm not bending down at the back of the car with a meter when I'm parked on the street -- I'll have to wait until the cunt shifts -- no idea who they are as I've never seen the car before.
Maybe the cunt reads this blog? The car got moved so, I've parked off street and done the checks with a meter -- looks like the Alternator is the problem :-( I'll have to take the car to the garage :-(
