    If someone / group is capable of making a plane disappear without trace, hiding it for two weeks, kidnapping all on board, I am sure they are capable of dumping the ‘wreckage’ at sea too. Perhaps they will only be found when they want to be found?

    Did you enjoy it now it’s finished?? Little miss Vern0n loved it (she’s 4 1/2).
    I thought it was great too (age 40 1/2), plot rolls along nicely and just good fun

    Ps they only sent please come back offer after I had fully cancelled sky everything. Previously they have been a bit more willing to haggle but have probably wised up to people doing this with no real intention of cancelling!

    I planned to end mine a few months back, cancelled it and everything but they begged me to come back with a silly offer for sky/sports/movies/HD and unlimited broadband for around 30 a month, inc a new HD box.
    So not much more than the cost if a freesat box. I will be keeping for remainder of the 12 month contract and see what’s on offer when silly price expires.

    I do use the Sky Go a bit , and am one of those who enjoy watching others watch the Saturday stuff. IIRC Sky Sports News is now subscription only, so no longer a freebie. I am a footy fan so at the mo it’s a good deal for me..

    Agree it is very footie focused though

    4 – a great film
    5 – as awesome as it gets. Nice and dark too!
    6 – commercial but acceptable, with some great stuff too

    1 & 2 – utter drivel. Not resemblance to 4/5/6
    3 – could have been worse

    Totally agree that of all the FX, it is the newer stuff which looks totally duff. All the original effects still look fantastic. The special edition versions’ added CGI completely detracted form the film. Less is more and all that. Don’t even get me started on the acting…

    6-800 would be my guess even down sarf. I guess the skim between joists is a PITA though which maybe why the quote is on the steep side…

    ‘Working’ from home 8-9am. Brunch & stroll with wife/kids no doubt followed by a Barbie or Tinkerbell DVD with little miss Vern0n, carol service, wine, last minute present wrap, mince pies, rum, wait for Santa!

    How do chromebooks get on with iTunes? If using to sync ipods/phones would you be better off with a windows laptop? Or dioes it make no odds?

    Why not let RM know that you appreciate their assistance so far, but as pointed out previously, they need to prove you did not state contents when posting and believe their T&C of what constitutes a potentially dangerous item are unreasonable. If they cannot locate the item or how they disposed of it, you will report to police as theft.

    Subtly mention you don’t want to have to start a social media frenzy…

    Will be a big can of worms and a PITA for them if they need to start investigating all similar claims….

    My little miss was given the ‘star’ role as Mary (she is in reception year) – and then asked if she wanted to say anything or not, which seemed like a nice way of doing things. She chose to have a silent role!

    She was then ok to get on with the play without all that worry / pressure at 4 or 5 years old, and this approach will hopefully build up the kids involement over time. The fear of not having a choice is what is most likely to put them off.

    Glad she enjoyed it in the end jd, thats all that matters

    Cheers guys. There’s defo some flow thru it so I will see. As to the actual damp bits, I have taken back the wallpaper a few weeks ago and the residual glue is slightly has remained sticky in these areas. I did run a dehumid for a few weeks a couple of hrs a day, room seems to have RH approx 50 now. Didn’t actually remove the damp completely though.

    Re the vent, will a single brick size be sufficient, or worth going up to a double?

    Forgot to say it’s an old house so no cavity walls.

    Gooner, no real manager upset me (we don’t get thru that many!) but biggest gripe is ex players who turned on the club.
    Eg Stewart ‘****t’ Robson ‘“I hope it [Wenger’s exit] is sooner rather than later because I certainly won’t miss him because Arsenal have been going down the wrong road for quite some while,” Robson told the BBC.
    Nice one chump..

    Nasri, Adebayor, Ca$hley all have my contempt but as I see it the club is better off without them

    Sorry, but Ski School is a good film that’s good so cannot possibly be included!

    Street Trash, Killer Klowns From Outer Space and that Billy The Kid film, now that’s all bad / good.

    Yup, portnailer. I’ve done it before and i don’t fancy facing with glue.

    But in the new house it’s a bit more, ahem, moist, hence just worrying a bit more than I probably need to… It’s 1930 ish, solid brick walls and all that…

    Planks are 18/4 t&g, 150mm wide if it makes any diff? They look a nice quality ply base so hopefully will be ok!
