Three again.

I spent one hour on the phone to some Indian, who put me on hold three times and transferred to two different people.

Rather ironic that the hold music included "Man I ain't getting nowhere" and Three's "Make it right" song also was on...

Oh, and the internet should be fixed on TUESDAY. 2 weeks after the problem started.

Sunderland Council to charge for brown bin garden waste collections in bid to save £800,000

Gardeners are to be charged an extra £25 on top of their council tax to have their brown bins emptied.

Senior councillors have approved an annual charge for fortnightly collections of garden waste, which will start in March 2016.

Durham already started doing that, this year.

We've made a lot of compost!

Its a disgrace, Sunderland Council just want more money, its not like our household pays full Council Tax already.... FOR the bins to emptied etc.

The garden waste isn't considered an essential service, though - more of a courtesy that they can make money on by selling compost. I will be up in arms if they start charging us for taking household rubbish away, though.

EE are no better.

There was nationwide mirth when there was a pretty much nationwide data outage lasting a whole day. They put something about it on their website. Oh, wait.... That worked so well since I was away from home.

They did eventually send out a mass text to explain what had happened. After I'd finally been able to log into the hotel WiFi, 8 hours after it broke.

The YouTube app is a heap of crap! Every video I try to watch buffers, especially if there's an advertisement before it starts!

It may just be my mobile phone, as I just tried to comment something on one of Bazza's posts on Facebook and I ended up commenting on someone else's abd looking a bit of a t#t.

Fair play to the lad. The Sunderland fans were giving him stick all game. It just seems that they spit their dummies out, once they get some back.
