Maybe he did. Maybe he trained them all and then dropped them on different planets throughout the galaxy as one-person sleeper cells and that's why Rey has force powers. She was just too young to remember the training. He knew it was too dangerous to keep them all together with such a high force-concentration so he spread them out.

Im enjoying Boomerang Rentals. I had to get 3x crappy games before i could get access to the good stuff, but right now i've got Rainbow Six and Need For Speed. I've spent about half an hour on both so far. NFS is utter tosh. No steering wheel support, WTF? I'll give it another hour though before i post it back. Rainbow Six on the other hand appears to be wicked! I've just done the first couple of training missions and they're great fun! Rapelling through a window just as i blow it is awesome! The controls feel ever so slightly strange (not quite up to CoD or BF standards) so it feels a little unwieldy at the moment. Also noticed Thief is free on Games with Gold at the moment.

Actually this has made me think, and given me a different perspective on Han's death. I can remember my first time watching episode IV in the 80's and being upset about Obi-Wan dying. He was a past great with a rich history, and they killed him off. Han's death could be considered the same for the new generation, who dont really know him and haven't seen the originals (i.e. kids new to the series).

Get out.

This is it... i can overlook the plot holes completely, as it is just a film after all. It's called artistic license. The only thing that has (massively) bothered me is the way in which Han died. I think they could have achieved the same result (journey to the dark side complete) had they killed Leia in the same manner, and nobody would have been upset. Han just deserved more imho.

Looks like a bees nest, Jim Leon... what a scrooge!

I know... one of my all time favorites! To be fair i had big ideas but then they ended up pretty small

We've bought our first house this year and i'm hosting Christmas for the first time ever, so i wanted to go all out Clark W Griswold to impress me Mum. Tree was a 10.5 footer (£85!!) but i chopped 1.5' off the bottom and 1' off the top as my lounge ceiling is only 8'.

Dan, i think you should edit your post mate to include the spoiler tags...

Well? Who's seen it? I had tickets for the midnight showing last night, and as a HUGE fan of the originals what was my verdict? I was blown away. Honestly i thought it was absolutely fantastic. Brilliant story, maybe slightly too much comedy but it was genuinely funny, it was near perfect... ***WARNING - DO NOT CLICK IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT, UNLESS YOU WANT TO RUIN IT FOR YOURSELF***

Lovely Zed that was, back in the day.

So I had a presentation to do on Friday and i ended taking one of our work projectors home with me. Nothing special, not even 1080p, but i thought i'd have a play with it. RRP on this model is about £300. First there was Fifa on my lounge wall, followed by a bit of Battlefront (no pic, sorry) Then tonight i thought i'd take everything upstairs and try a bit of driving in my man cave. Unfortunately due to the length of HDMI lead and the cable between my wheel and xbox i couldnt have the projector as far back as i wanted it (to make a bigger screen), but it was still fun.

Yeah, cracks me up. He's got a few more here: https://www.instagram.com/iamqueenzflip/

Absolutely gut wrenching. Martin was a top bloke and was one of the first people I met on the forum nearly a decade ago. Always very friendly and went the extra mile. A massive loss to the car community. Liz, my thoughts are with you and family. x I remember on my first Wales meet in October 2008, at the carvery in Bala he stood up and said a few words, including wishing me a happy birthday, and he'd had a card made for me, and i'd only met him once before at that point. What a gent. A couple of pics i've got of him... Obviously not of Mart, but of the card he got me.

Yep, count me in. I've barely played this so need something like this to 'kick me in to gear'. KingMarz. Will be available most nights after 10pm.

Are you certain your JDM is non-xenon? It was common for importers to keep the HID Ballasts in place and just bypass them with a couple of wires to use a regular bulb (to get around the lack of headlight washers which is a UK rule for xenon-equipped car). Remove one of the headlights and see if the ballast is still in place. Failing that - there's no reason that any generic retrofit kit from ebay cant be used.

Too many unknowns with a risk of getting badly burned. I'd walk away, personally.

...and one with the stock roof colour.

Here you go Syy, as requested. I'd go with the gunmetal, myself.

Here you go...

I think people either have an addictive personality or they dont. I can take it or leave it with alcohol. If from tomorrow i never had another drop until the day i died, it wouldn't bother me. I never drink on a school night as i can't be bothered with hangovers, but when i do have a drink, i hit it pretty hard. I'll go through phases... maybe 6 months barely having a drop but then usually (around this time of year) it seems like i'm on it every weekend. Smoking too... i enjoy a cigar on occasion and i've got a well-stocked humidor, but but i never feel compelled to have one. I have maybe 1 every 4-6 weeks with a few glasses of red perhaps. The only thing i've ever struggled with is caffeine. I became dependant on coffee to the point i'd have a migraine if i didnt get my daily fix. I've also suffered with red bull, needing to have 1-2 cans of that every morning on my drive to work. But 3 years ago i went cold turkey and quit, only drinking decaff now. It's now gone the other way, and even if i have just 1 instant coffee i get a migraine!

Living the dream

Have a good one, Liam.

Gutted.

I haven't luckily; I'm using the gearbox from the camaro as I didn't want automatic any more. The camaro already has an aftermarket gearbox which is used for everything from mental LS engine swaps to the Aston Martin DB7 and V12 Vanquish as standard. The truck is rear wheel drive so it's not as complicated as the G-Wagen set-up would be. The only complications from using this gearbox is that I need to change the gearstick position to clear the bench seat and I'll need a custom driveshaft to match the box to the Jag diff Sorry i didnt make my point properly regarding ratios. The issue with a saloon car gearbox was due to the wheel+tyre diameter. Obviously the G-Wagen had much larger wheels+tyres than a saloon car, so the gearbox ratio's are all wrong to get the car moving and driving normally with a saloon car 'box. I can't remember the maths but it's the equivalent effect of revving your tits off to not move very far or revving just a little but move too much... if that makes sense? Ah ok, get you. I haven't got an issue because I'll be running the wheels from the camaro on the truck the diff is from an XJS and is a ratio of 3.54:1 with the standard camaro ratio being 3.42:1, obviously there's a difference, but it's negligible :thumbs:
