I left you with news that I was off to see AC/DC, some of you I imagine were aware I was about to rock and saluted me for it. The O2 was a suprsingly awesome venue, felt like a stadium gig, they've basically sectioned off the middle to olympic gynasium sort of size, but AC/DC fucking rule, it was just the best gig ever, I mean AC/DC. Highlights were of course Thunderstruck, Whole lotta Rosie, TNT, The Jack and best of the new album War Machine.
The stage appropriately had a rock and roll train derailed on it with AC/DC decals and we also saw Hells Bell come down from the roof, a giant inflatable Rosie and several canons. My god, their looking like old guys now but Angus still cracked out an outragous ridiculously long solo.
The day after that we moved house! Still in Southampton just in a bigger, better, tiger swingingable flat. Really liking it; technolgy of the week actually relates to our new place. Downstairs is a light up LCD display board which displays realtime statistics of the solar panels on the roof, it displays kW generated over the period they have been there and the kW being generated at this presice moment.
This is all quite nice and 'green' but when walking past it at night the glowing red lcd display board gives of enough red light to develop photos in front of, simply displaying that 0.00kW is being generated at this moment, so how much energy is it using to run the LCD display board every night I hear you asking? Its got that chocolate teapot sort of vibe to it.I tried to purchase myself an iPhone yesterday only to be denied after they took all my details, some problem to do with my address only just changing. So sadly I have to live iPhoneless for at least another month. I can't tell you how bad I want a spirit level on my phone, and all the other incredably awesome (open source) apps that I've seen.
So to evaluate, BT are rubbish, get internet through Virgin, AC/DC are awesome, Solar Statistics panel is Technology of the Week but pretty shit and iCant iPhone. Peace out for now.

Glad to see you back online and your new place sounds good.
That LED thing sounds stupid, do you really need to know how much it is generating.
Apple are probably announcing a new iPhone on June 8th, so prob a good thing you have to wait, you will have the 'hopefully' better one.
Sounds like the new place is cool. I'm very jealous about the ac dc gig, after you phoned i went and listened to back in black, always a treat. Still ain't got their new album i keep meaning to get it, in fact wait i'll do that now......Right thats downloading, ill have to give you a little review of it once i've fully absorbed it. Oh and glad to see you're thinking of getting an iphone, the apps are amazing i could spend thousands on them.
I might film the LED thing just to truly show how crap it is.
I heard that the current iPhone is going to have an update, video and ringtone related.
Green, the new album is pretty good, much of the same style, nothing new.
