Wishlists

Feeling generous and don't want to give me cash? Then buy me some shit!

  • T-shirt Hell - NOTE Please check current import duty restrictions for sending stuff to the UK. Order too many and the bastards will charge me!
  • Amazon UK - mainly books, but some other stuff, too.
  • ThinkGeek - got to love weird geeky stuff. Again, please note import restrictions - and the postage from here is ridiculous.

I just got four emails from Twitter telling me that Morgan, Kelly, Tasmine and Kate (or someone) were now following me. All of them had actual usernames along the lines of 4CVFD5T and a single post on their Twitter feed – telling me that they’d just got their free laptop from some dodgy website. With a link to the website.

OK, so far so “meh”. It’s obvious spam.

So why the hell did all four have over 250 followers? What wanker actually follows the feed from an obvious spam merchant? Really?
