updating to android 2.1 on the HTC hero (orange uk)

Meh… there’s a ROM update on the HTC site, that doesn’t mention 2.1 (dated Feb 2010) so I’d ignored it… when I heard other people had got 2.1 OTA I wanted it too!

So yeah, you need to install the Feb ROM update… then ask it to check for an OTA update. jeez. They could just say that somewhere.

Ah well.. 2.1 happy days :-)

PS I’m so buying myself one of these for my birthday

not voting? think again

If you’re not voting because you don’t think politicians represent you, consider this:

We have the best chance EVER in living history to change the political system by voting Lib Dem.

You don’t have to agree with everything they say, just know that they want to change the system.

When tories say “vote for change” they …just mean a swap in parliament, not reform to the system.

Still not voting? Then you’re an idiot.

Caffeine detox… day 2

I’ve been on a continuing journey to improve my health/fitness n stuff… I’ve cut down a lot on my sugar intake and was considering cutting out caffeine as my sleep pattern was drifting out of control a bit… then I saw this “pod” on current tv (THE best cable channel ever – FACT)

After that I was decided… caffeine and taurine must go!

By the afternoon after my last drug filled beverage I felt quite rubbish, almost depressed/lethargic and with a headache.  (Is this the caffeine withdrawal?)

On day 2, I feel much more alive but I’ve been very thirsty and have a bit of a headache again by late afternoon. Slept a bit better last night too.

From reading around, it looks like it’ll be day 5 till my brain chemistry is back to normal – scary.

Wish me luck…right now, I either need a nap, or a cherry coke…

Poor Man’s Goose

This is an old passed down recipe I wanted to cook at Christmas – when I did boxing day for the 5000 (well 15 relatives I think?) – after much googling, I couldn’t find this version of it – most that I found were totally different and I knew roughly what was in it.

So here it is reproduced with kind permission from my mother (who had it published a LONG time ago in a little book) for all to enjoy:

  • Sausage meat (1/4 kg)
  • Onions (1 large one)
  • dried Sage
  • Tin of baked beans
  • potatoes (1/2 kg)

Note: the amounts weren’t in the original notes for some reason.

Fry the onions. Boil & mash potatoes.

Put all ingredients in a casserole dish in the following order :-

sausage meat, fried onions, dried sage (to taste), beans.

Top with mashed potatoes.

Cook for 35 to 40 mins at 190 degress C

Eat + Enjoy!
