    Nukeproofs look cheap
    Ummm…..They ARE cheap…
    Actually, in the flesh they look fantastic. Lovely finish on my black anodised one. Though I have to say, the headtube area welds are a little…..agricultural.

    The finish on my mates is very good and it rides nice too. When I say they look cheap it’s more about the logo and branding.

    Nukeproofs look cheap and the product names all seem a bit trying to be ‘ard but are more Ben10.

    I love my celica, back seats down you can get 2 bikes in.

    Were can you get 500 Abarths for £4k? I didn’t think they were that cheap yet.

    I was sitting far too close, my lounge is tiny the new 42″ tv is as big as the window. Sitting over 3 foot away the pictures lovely and sharp. Thankfully my new house has a big lounge, moving in May, so until then I’m going to have to sit in the hallway.

    She reminds me of Kirsty Alsopp only a bit different looking and making unappetising food rather than unappetising crafts.

    I read the panasonic I just brought has a poor non-hd picture quality. I think it will do though, it look alright in the shop and it’s going to seem like we’ve had our eyes cleaned after the polychromatic trippy effects of our 18 year old CRT. Unusually I found the staff In Richer Sounds very unhelpful one was playing a word game on his phone the other wasn’t too bothered about selling me a TV. he keeping trying to flog this LG one I wasn’t Intrested in. Always had good customer service off them before so was surprised.

    I went out this morning to buy the Sony I linked before (after a visit to Currys, John Lewis and Richer Sounds) but came home instead confused with an order for this:

    After reading a few things it could well be a bit naff.

    Slight hijack, anyone have/seen that Sony? Think it fits the bill for you and we need a TV too our CRT finally gave up.

    I recently sold an MX5, i learned from the first test pilot they leave the full asking price in cash at your house with your biggest mate and you go with them on a route you’ve chosen. If they wish to go elsewhere they stump up the fuel costs. The guy who took me out for a spin in my car decided to see if he could top 80 on a narrow lane, were 50 was pushing it. I told him to pull over and I drove back.

    My other thing is keep a diary of your mood, split the day into 3, morning evening & night, rate your mood and anxiety out of 10. It can help pin point any times when your worse/better you may not have realised. An example from me I felt shitty after meeting a mate for a coffee every Friday when I got home, it wasn’t the company, wasnt the town that was making me feel crap later in the day, so changed what I was eating/drinking and it passed. Noticed I felt less anxious after pushing hard with exercise, also noticed I felt lowest in the mornings so when I was able (now every day) I push hard exercising in the mornings to set me up for the day.

    I get anxiety and bouts of depression. I can honestly say that the people I know who also suffer are all feeling low at the moment. I believe in food and mood, eat stuff that you like but be aware of too much sugar, caffeine and alcohol. Drink loads of water and eat fresh fruit. If your DR gives you anti depressants try them out, don’t listen to people saying they give them out like sweets, they could help you out of a rut. Your the only expert on yourself and you know how you feel. Exercise loads, preferably outdoors. If it’s at a time were you really feel like you can’t get out and do that sit outside for a bit. If your self employed and managing your own breaks make sure to leave the workplace during that time, go outside even if it’s for 5 minutes and get some air.

    Best of luck to you, this ain’t going to last forever and it will pass. Keep speaking out if your low, people will help you, don’t bottle it up.

    Duane buy a coupe, or a faux coupe. There’s plenty of time to get a Mondeo/Skoda/Audi your young exploit your lack of commitments.

    I got an Epson SX130 from tesco for £30 and it’s been fine. £40 gets you the model up with wifi and a card reader. I got it from Tesco as it’s local and I could take it back no hassle if it was cheap tat.

    The genuine inks RRP at around the same price as the printer which seems odd as the ones supplied were full cartridges, last printer I brought they were a quarter full. 3rd party inks much cheaper online. It’s an ok printer-scanner for the odd bit of printing and scanning. Scanner is useful as you can just use it like a photocopier. Photos look ok printed from it too.

    I brought a Celica, it’s been extremely reliable, ok on MPG and is really nice to drive. You can get bikes in the back pretty easy the load area is nice and wide with a handy tray that holds peddals in place to stop bikes jumping about. Most have full leather interior and look a lot more expensive than they are. You can pick one up for a grand or two and have a bit of budget left over for tax/insurance. Bit of a Barry boy image but doesn’t bother me.

    My fiancé had a peugeot, wouldn’t buy another.

    We have just had an offer accepted. The 1st choice house was on the Market for £180k, it was really only worth £160k in our opinion. We offered that and it got declined. Our 2nd choice house was on the Market for £175k but we got it for £150k. My dad (builder) said ignore the first choice it needs work doing to it etc… Of course I ignored him but now I’m glad I did. Offer what you think its worth.

    OR what Crikey said 🙂

    If you prefer to stay away from “blockbusters” and discover your own films, then there it a hell of a lot of content to stream and rent.

    Can you recommend any? We have a few weeks left of the free trial. If your new to world cinema you might be surprised at what’s new to you, but most the content on there is quite old. There is a few MTB shorts (again prob seen before) and a couple of documentaries. The doc on computer games is so one sided it’s laughable.

    I started in Lovefilm, but moved to netflix; the netflix content is far superior and seems to update much more frequently. Also its half the price
    POSTED 12 MINUTES AGO # REPORT-POST

    I thought netflix was £5.99 PCM and love film £4.99? Also love film content is updated more often? But still the content on both is still not worth it.

    I love my BFe, I don’t find it particularly harsh. You’d have no issues getting it sold if you went down that route.

    View the lists of films online, there is very little worth watching.

    The LoveFilm menu system is overcomplicated, slow and feels dated. Netflix is worse. Get the free 1 month trials see for yourself then head to block buster.

    Dad had a MK1 MPS version,, with a split back seat we got 3 adults and 3 bikes arranged inside with one rear seat folded down. He’s got a MK2 estate now, I will have a look at arranging bikes in it when I visit mid-week. You can easily get 2 bikes in with front wheel off and seats down, but that doesn’t really answer your question..

    Dads had 2, he had Mondeos before. The 6’s are really nice for the money, well made and reliable. I think it’s the TS2 that has the Bose stereo which sounds fantastic. I have hears the dealerships can be hit and miss, but if your looking at an ‘old’ magazine perhaps your not buying new so may not be an issue. I’ve got an older MX5 myself and had no issues with the dealers. If I was after a family sized car I’d have a 6.

    Myself and my girlfriend ended up in the castle museum, it was rubbish. Actually rubbish, especially the ‘toys’ bit that was no different to a charity shop display of donations. It was £10ish each to get in, and the tickets are valid for a year. If I can find them your very much welcome to them as we won’t be heading back.

    Interesting. Have you got a source for that or is it rumour?

    The method to crack a hard drive isnt hard to find. Also something I have heard but not seen so I can’t verify is you can mirror the hard disc onto another hard disc externally without the original owner knowing, I’ve not seen this so could be bull.

    I know from customers experience ‘remove payment method’ didn’t fully remove the details. It was really easy on the original Xbox to get old CC details, Microsoft deny it but addressed it in original Xbox’s hardware versions 1.5 or more recent, it was then they went to Samsung components with a non solid disc tray.

    Remove payment option etc doesn’t 100% erase the CC data from the console. CC’s get linked to gamertags and can be hacked & reinstated without having the actual CC there. It’s not even a difficult process. Phoning Microsoft they remove the correlation between ganertag and CC so you would need the card present to set it up again. It used to take 28 days for Microsoft to clear it with their scripted staff denying it could happen, staff in games shops and those hacked knowing otherwise. All the ganeshop staff and ex staff I know only use vouchers for this reason.

    As cougar said, those are the prices of online points and a game rather than the prices of an xbox live subscription.
