Mobile Phones at 30,000 Feet Given the Green Light for Take Off

The European Union Commission, in its infinite wisdom (or perhaps that should be self-serving wisdom), has decided that it is safe for people to use mobile phone whilst on board aircraft.  Great!  If the constant harassment by some airline personnel offering drinks, gifts, scratch cards and so on wasn’t enough, now we have to listen to people yelling into a mobile phone to make themselves heard above the roar of the plane’s engine. Just great. I hate flying as it is, my hips hurt and I have to wear special socks in order to stop my viens killing me.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m very attached to my mobile phone, and the fact that I can keep it turned on and therefore use it to play games and amuse myself during the flight does delight me, but the small advantage is far outweighed by the annoyance the number of potential business people who will use their flying time to catch up on their calls will cause. And the things people talk about on the phone in public is enough to put you off your already bad flight food. I don't want to hear about the breast enlargements that Kera Knightly isn't having or the liposuction that went wrong. They describe intimate things in massive detail - I don't want to know!

It’s thought that the costs for using mobiles from a plane will be high, and whilst that may deter the average holiday maker ringing their neighbour to check if they locked the front door, the all encompassing business account will mean that business travellers won’t find the costs off-putting at all.  My only hope is that most of the airlines will allow SMS, and silent ringtones only whilst travelling on board their aircraft!

My friend ganesh

A friend of mine works for Public Relations UK, a specialist beauty agency. He’s a very old friend of mine; we went to school together and shared one of my life changing experiences. When we were sixteen years old, we went backpacking in Cornwall together and it was my first real taste of true freedom. We wondered where we wanted to go, made our plans spontaneously, and rested our heads where ever we were when night came. It was amazing, and it gave me much of the confidence I hold as a person today.

However, since joining this PR Company, he has become more and more image conscious. We never cared what we did or how we looked, and of course that does change as you move into adult hood, however the extent to which it has happened is shocking me slightly.
Of course it is important to look presentable, especially in the work place. Someone who looks like they are doing good job is more likely to gain the respect from his colleagues and employers than someone who is working really efficiently but appears to be a big disorganised mess. My friend is taking it too far for me though. I was round his house to visit, and found him searching for ‘weight loss surgery uk’ on his computer. When I asked him about it he admitted that he has decided that he wants to have Chest Reduction surgery. What?! Chest reduction surgery? I tried talking him out of it, but he is convinced that he is too large and that he needs to loose weight. Worse than that, he is currently become unhappy as a person because of his weight. This guy has never had a weight problem, not really. Okay so he’s not the smallest of men, but he’s not fat or overweight at all.

The thing that upsets me was realising that working at this PR place has made him into an unhappy person. Before going there he was pleased with who he was and how he looked. Now he is very subtly miserable.
I am going to support him with his drive to have this surgery done. Why? Because he will be happier once he is smaller. The thing I can’t help but remembering is that the only reason he needs it, is because someone convinced him that he needs it. If he’d never thought about it in the first place, he would have been perfectly happy as he was.

No Award Show – But See Those British Globes Shine!

How sad that the Brits were unable to bask in the glory of such a great night for British acting talent.  The cancelation of the Golden Globe awards show meant that there was none of the usual fuss and glamour of red carpet chitchat and flustered acceptance speeches, but also that the actors were unable to shine in the spotlight of recognition of their work.  For the British who work especially hard for recognition amongst the established American stars, and who get a chance to be shown on our British TV as standing side-by-side with old Hollywood.  Whilst I believe everyone has a right to strike for what they believe to be better working conditions, I can’t help but feel that there are some things that ought to have been left alone – such as the awards ceremonies.  These aren’t about making money, these are about giving recognition where it’s due.  It’s way too bad that in a year when we did so well, the Globes were shadowed by the writers, who if they are successful in their efforts will actually benefit financially from the movies that are getting such acclaim at these awards. I think the only plus side to it was not having to look at the botox and liposuction administered body of the less than sharp Paris Hilton. Let’s hope that when the Oscars come about there’s at least some form of professional decency and they are allowed to go ahead on schedule. As for last night’s Golden Globes –..Go Brits!  Well done!

Will the McCann’s Be Re-Interviewed?

According to Sky.Com news Portuguese police want to re-interview Gerry and Kate McCann and their sources say that an application is being prepared that will seek permission from the Home Secretary to allow them to do so.  Apparently now they are back in the UK, our laws protect them from answering questions that could prove them innocent –.Or guilty.  Whilst there seems little point in the Portuguese police re-interviewing the McCann’s friends who have had plenty of time to get their stories “straight”, current events that are meant to reassert their innocence such as taking drug tests months after their little girl disappeared to prove they have medication in their or their children’s system is a bit late, and Gerry McCann’s claim of a possible stalker he’s just recalled seeing (like you see a possible stalker and leave your children alone?), seem to me to be fuel to the contrary.  Methinks the couple doth protesteth their innocence too much in the light of increasing condemning evidence.

Ow, a little news on the work front.Well I have totally finished the IPL skin clinic part
