DIY Techno-hacks
Old hard drive platters make wonderfully good drinks coasters - they look dead smart and expensive and you've stopped people reading your old data into the bargain.
Have you taped all your remotes together, peep-show-style? Have you wired your doorbell to the toilet? What enterprising DIY have you done with technology?
Extra points for using sellotape rather than solder.

Meh ..
I started scanning stuff in and filing it on my computer but it got way too tedious and boring. Decided to do this instead:
- 1 ringbinder
- 12 sleeves, one for each month
Wack in everything you get this month into one sleeve and cycle when next month comes. When you make a full round into 12 months and 12 full sleeves, you simply empty out the sleeves one by one as you go along. Extended warranties and V5s etc go into the permanent file.
.. Yes, I do have a girlfriend.
.. No, she isn't online.
