Electronic/Electrical Heaven - 12th May 2009

I forgot to mention that I observed something quite impressive yesterday when at the city centre. This was a whole street (both sides) just dedicated to electronics and electrical equipment. It was quite incredible! From cabinets full of remote controls to every type of sound system including walls full of electronic/electrical equipment such as cables, batteries, capacitors, resistors, circuit boards, switches. Shop after shop full of stuff. If you ever needed something electrical/electronic, I am positive you’d find it here. Oh and by the way by a street I mean at least 100 metres long.

It was also quite funny to see just one tiny clothes shop in the middle of all these electrical dedicated outlets.

Anyways back to today. We finally paid the Embassy the last visit to collect the certificate of no impediment. All this went smoothly and it only took about 20 minutes to pay and receive the certificate. I am now legally able to marry in Colombia hoo f*ing ray (it only took 42 days – thanks to current legislation in Gibraltar). The certificate itself is nothing to write home about, it’s just an A4 sheet on letter headed paper and a signature / stamp of approval.

The rest of the day I have spent trying to fix my laptop. I got a very weird virus after visiting a few Bogota hotel websites. Suddenly out of the blue my Internet Browser (Internet Explorer – so go figure), started opening gay porn websites I haven’t seen so many dicks on one page in my life jejeje. Anyways joking apart as the Trojan was a serious one. It kept crashing/restarting my PC every 15 monutes (apart from the usual annoying pop-ups every 30 seconds or so). Eventually after a few hours I got it sorted using a program called Malwarebytes’ Anit-Malware. The Trojan/Malware/Virus was System Security version 4.51.
