I got woken up by my dog this morning wanting to go out. I rubbed my bleary eyes to see the time was only 4.20am. Not to worry I thought, I'd let him go out quick then go back to bed. I let him out while I stood by the door falling back to sleep again. After a few minutes he hadn't come back and he was no longer in sight. I had to throw some clothes on and then I had a chase up the road to catch him. He's never done that before but I was wide awake by the time I got back so started work at 4.40am this morning.
I finished Buy Spanish Homes today which was sweet.
Also finished all the text and graphics for Turkey Yacht Charter and uploaded that today as well.
Royal Mail are such a total waste of space. I've been sending a number of parcels out and they were all sent first class recorded. Two parcels never showed up and the remaining parcels are taking between 5 and 7 days to deliver. So much for first class!
I'm switching to special next day delivery now and passing on the cost to my customers which I really did not want to do :(

In the register is the following news: European Parliament voted to enact the Intellectual Property (IP) Enforcement Directive. This legislative framework for dealing with piracy and theft of copyrighted goods is now sent to the member states, which have two years to enact laws which comply with the directive.
In the same kind of news a Father speaks out about being sued by the recording industry because of his son downloading music.
I can see the recording industry sat in their plush board room now...
RI Person 1: "Let’s start suing parents for their kids downloading, that will be funny"
RI Person 2: "Haven't the record labels done enough already by price fixing for 30 years?"
RI Person 1: "Who cares, we're untouchable"
RI Person 2: "Good point, more coffee anyone?".
One solution to all of this is the music industry getting sued for the hundred of thousands of billions it made from price fixing and to have that pumped into free music downloads for the next 5 years as a way of forcing it to say sorry. :)
I just can't help thinking of the line in the film wall street when I think of the music industry...... "Greed is good"
