Quick Tip this week: Nearly everyone now has a nice fast broadband connection, but are you using it for more than you would use your old dial-up connection for? For many the answer is no! So here are a few suggests to start making the most of your broadband connection:
- Film Trailers – Watch the film trailers on the Apple website of the newest films released or coming out soon!
- XBox Live – Make the most of your XBox and your internet connection
- How Stuff Works - Find out how virtually anything works!!
- Facebook – Share photos and messages with all your mates – possibly the biggest time waster on the web.
- YouTube – Amongst a fair amount of drivel there is a load of amusing stuff on You Tube
- BBC iPlayer – Watch the last 7 days ofBBC TV!
Let me know if you have a better suggestion!

So Christmas is near and playing solitaire is becoming more and more frequent as you think about the Christmas shopping you should be doing on Amazon How about an alternative to Solitaire? A game that has been around for years is Elf Bowling and it is very addictive. Version 1 saw Santa bowling at Elves who shouted various insults when Santa missed! That version is still around and still as addictive. Check out Elf Bowling 1. The best bit is the cost…Free!
Elf Bowling 2 saw Santa bowling (more catapulting) an elf off a wooden runway with Sharks at the end. The close you got to the end the better the points you were awarded. Playing against Dingle who could also knock your previously thrown elves off! This version I could have sworn was free (maybe they changed it) but now you have to pay..but you do get 60minutes free to try it out
So…a challenge…my first score with Elf Bowling 1 today was 152! Can you beat it? On your FIRST go only
Discalimer: As tempting as this is to play we have to point out that it should be played out of office ours or during your lunch break. We don’t want managers chasing us because all their teams are competing for the best score
