Do online diaries dream of electric entries? in OD

(The pic in my last entry was my niece so this time I thought I’d show you her big brother.)

In another installment of “Will Forbes and his technology sucking”, while I was back home my Bluetooth headset decided to join my two laptops on the broken pile.  I’ve got plenty of wired headphones, but I hate wearing them.

Enter Ipsos.  I’ve signed up with them to take surveys and I had aquired enough points to get a £10 Amazon gift card.  I did so and got myself a new set of Bluetooth headphones.  They aren’t quite the style I like, but still.

I had some money left over so, of course, I left it for spending later.  Only kidding, I bought myself the third book in Malcolm Mackay’s Glasgow Trilogy.

I also do surveys for Yougov and am 3 points away from another £50 from them.  That’ll likely pay for new ink for the printer.

I actually went to the cinema on Monday night.  I got a free ticket to see King of Thieves which is based on the Hatton Garden raid.  It’s a decent heist flick, even if I was distracted by Charlie Cox not being Matt Murdock.
