There are some things i come across on the internet that i feel i just have to share with as many people as i can. After using my pay as you go phone and my email to send the images around to everyone I could think of I thought I’d share the greatness with everyone else. The following pictures are from the artist Randis Albion and are only a small selection of his work. More images can be found on his Deviant art page which is well worth having a look because there are many more amazing pieces of work on there. Just found this site too.

I maybe late to the party for this one, but the other page i was looking at mobile phones (as i am out of contract soon) and discovered that you can download and use Skype on mobile phones now. I have been a PC skype user for many years as i am not really a fan of Windows Messenger. I normally use Skype to keep in touch with people i work with instead of using emails as its fast and i don’t really want to pay to use it for call to other phones or landlines.
Skpye for mobiles is a great idea for anyone who uses an kind of pay as you go phones as it pretty much gives you free calls. the only draw back is that you need the person you are calling to have skype too, but if everyone spreads the word then we could all have free calls, which can only be a good thing.
To use Skype on your mobile you will have to either use a previously set up account, or set up a separate account (what i would do tbh) and then add all for your friends. The set up and contact adding is nice and simple and should really only take you about 15mins to complete (depending upon the amount of friends you have of course).
I would say check it out if you have a newish phone, chances are if you have bought a 3g phone in the last 6 months your handset will be able to use Skype and if you have any kind of smart phone or iPhone then you definitely be able to use it. Even if you don’t know anyone with it on their phones its a handy little piece of software to have to encourage your friends to download and get free calls too.

Visitors to Dubai often remark on the predictable weather - hot and sunny - Nothing Interesting.
Having found lots of cheap flights to Dubai we though it only right and proper that we check out what this crazy city has to offer other than sand and sun - and have discovered Gold Fever
Here we take a peek inside on of Dubai’s popular traditional attractions to see Gold
Witness the glittering Gold Souk
A visit to a market may seem a bit conventional, but Dubai’s Gold Souk is a bizarre and glittering feast for the eyes. At any single time, more than 25 tonnes of gold is on show at the Gold Souk.
Set in the heart of eastern Dubai’s commercial business district, Deira, narrow alleyways dazzle with gold and diamonds, including earrings, pearl necklaces, bracelets, rings and pendants.
Even if you don’t want to buy anything, it’s worth a pee
