Overcharginged for everything..

Here’s two quick one’s that I cam across recently, both for the UK..

first up, if you’ve ever been hit with a hefty penalty charge by one of the credit card companies you maye enjoy learning how to claw that money back from them - www.penaltycharges.co.uk

second there’s a new website that helps you find cheaper alternative numbers to the 0870 numbers we typically have to call for telephone support from companies - www.saynoto0870.com

This can easily save you 5 or 6p per minute, which quickly ads up if you spend an hour or so waiting to get trhough to someone in support, as I recently did with Sky..

My Favorite Travel Bits

Thought I’d post a bit about one of my favorite travel spots today, although my first passion is downhill skiing (as opposed to water or cross country skiing, not “uphill” skiing), I do enjoy a bit of Sun, Sea and Sand.

The last summer holiday I had that really rocked was to Olu Deniz in Turkey, this place is just class!

The header on the top of this site is a photo of mine from Buttefly Bay near Olu Deniz. I was there with my wife and a couple of friends and as it was my birthday we decided to do something fun, so we para-glided in to Butterlfy Bay (you can’t get there except by boat, foot or air), spent the night sleeping on the beach (and getting a little drunk), then left by “para-boat” (a little dinghy with a hangglider and big propeller engine on it) the next morning.

What on earth is WoW?!?

I was chatting with a fellow IMer (”Internet Marketer”) the other day on Skype and happened to mention playing “WoW” with my kids.

He went all quiet for a moment or two, then asked what the heck WoW was.

For those uneducated in online gaming and MMRORPG’s (Massive Multi-player Online Role Playing Games), WoW is short for World of Warcraft Online, from Blizard Entertainment.

Over the last year or so it has become the most popular online RPG ever with over 7 million playing across the world.

I love it for two reasons, first I can beat up on monsters with my unfeasably large weapon (Fnargh fnargh!), and second it allows me to spend time online with my kids when they’re at home with my ex-wife.

All sorts of stuff of course!

As this is my first post let me give you an idea of the kinda stuff I wanna share..

Did you know that Cacti help soak up the EMF’s from your TV and PC monitors?

No, neither did I.

In fact when my misses first told me I didn’t believe her, but I ended up with a catus last year and duly plonked it down near my pc monitors (yes, I have two runngin off the same PC, which is another thing worth sharing, it’s a real time saver if you spend much time online, like I do).

You can see a photo of the catci in question on my personal blog - Mad Mutant Cacti
