This is a question 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.

I'm not sure
All the utility companies send bills - I tried to get BT to sign me up for on-line billing but it wouldn't work - long story.

The council seem to send about 4 letters a week regarding council tax - each one more complicated than the last and seemingly written by a four year old.

I don't have as much as I used to, but there's still a lot to keep up with, but then this project got shelved some time ago and is no longer in use any more.
