No dub

I was being all flash last night, updating the blog through the new WiFi router while watching a film: Vampire Hunter D. Well, this post has nothing to do with networks, technology or even the film. Dubbing, now that's what I want to have a moan about. It's just not right. I couldn't sit through the film listening to some half-baked American actors make a dog's arse of the lines. Original soundtrack, English subtitles please. I thank you.

Broadband ahoy...

Had to happen eventually and eventually was last night. Broadband is up and running like a rapid, wireless dreamboat. No more crawling around on all fours in net world, I'm up and running at a healthy 2MB. OK, it may not be LAN speed, but the fact I can be typing this downstairs watching a film (Vampire Hunter D, if you're interested) while the modem does its thing upstairs is good enough for me. Now then, will Wi-Fi do the decent thing and reach as far as the beer garden of the nearest pub.... it's not that far away after all. Watch this space, I will find out.
