If you want a free XBOX 360, it seems that all you have to do is stand around on Hull University campus for a while. At some point a DHL man will probably come and give you one in a nice box. All you have to do is sign something meaningless on his pad and take it away.

At least that is what seems to have happened to mine. The delivery and repair went smoothly. I got an email saying the mended machine was being despatched. Followed by nothing. So I contact DHL who tell me that the device was delivered on Wednesday, to a place and a person who don't actually seem to exist.

I guess you could colour me unhappy at the moment. I just can't see how you get to the thought process which goes "Well, you aren't the right person, and this isn't the right place, but I'll hand the package over anyway because I'm in a hurry".  I think it might be a while before I'm back on the road again....
