Red's Ramblings v.2

I am a sympathiser to Richard Herrings cause. I too have been subject to identity theft as has been detailed on this blog so I was more than happy to join in the man hunt to find the elusive Virgilio Anderson with the purchase of a t-shirt.

I was quite happy with the new iPhone 3GS features like video and voice control. At least I could enjoy those without the effort that I have to put in with the Nike+
At least I’ve christened the new trainers.
