Rececssion tip #1: Amazon Affiliates

I am loving Amazon Affiliates on my blog, but can't help feeling hoist by my own petard. Checking today, it was displaying fantastic Ipswich Town memorabilia- as it has crawled a link to the Tractors on my site. And of course by displaying the stuff I like, it is enevitably drawing me in. Come Briggsie buy our wonderful products,it seems to say via clever contextual advertising.

Damn you Amazon Sirens, I am already addicted to your prime, one click shopping and I-phone apps. Its just too easy to get to the precious! Away!

One click won't hurt tho...

Aer Fungus Web Check In Still Hungover!

Can't check in online. Phone the Fungus help desk and it helpully suggests that quickest way to check in is to go online. Yes, it is when it works. It  then helpfully cuts the phone line off after 10p a minute listening to lovely, smokey female Irish accent. Poor CRM, but will probably call back later...ahem try checking in online again.  

Well done England, never easy is it!
