Some little things please
Big technological advances are great. They're why I can write this blog, and mean I can watch programmes like Stargate. Thank goodness for science.
But I've got enough big technological advances in my life now. I don't need any more.
I want some little technological advances please. I want a button in the lift (US translation: elevator) that lets you un-select a floor when you've pushed a button by mistake. A screen on the microwave that shows you cartoons while you wait those agonisingly long two minutes. And a way of taking out individual incorrectly typed auto complete entries in my web browser, without having to empty my entire history folder.

Gipsy joined GateWorld when it was STARGUIDE in January 2001, and has
been watching Stargate since the movie. Originally from New
Zealand (specifically, Wainuiomata), she started backpacking around the
world in 1989 and hasn't stopped yet. Life is spent mostly in London with
husband Mr G and baby G, born in 2005. She is also blessed with a
beautiful step daughter and wonderful step son.
Mum wants a button on my dad to make him be quite and listen when she talks to him :-P
Mal...there is actually a movie coming out about thhat!!! :-)
Gipsy...you are so funny!! I want a button in my car that *flings* all oher cars out of my lane up ahead....don't they know I have to be at work...sheesh.
Ohhhhhh how I wish for that cartoon in the mircrowave!! while you wait those 9 mins for the pasta to cook!!
Query? were you at P1? Just reading the back log.....it was a good con. I did Gmex aswell (and considering I'm kent based that week was fun!)

If P1 means Pegasus then sadly no, I wasn't. In the past I would have brought a ticket to a Wolf con as soon as it was announced but sadly now that Baby G is on the scene I'm more limited. The same with Gmex. I can't believe Michael was here, in England, and I didn't get to see him. Oh well, the little one is recompense enough :)
Whereabouts in Kent (if you don't mind me asking)? I know it fairly well. Family members and friends in Dartford and Gravesend, and Canterbury. Husband was born in Erith, and the inlaws are in Woolwich. Plus have a friend in Rochester. I'm in South East London.
