  1. Thats because they found them all in a lake.
  2. Until it's happened to you, it didnt happen.
  3. 2014 Cayman is my current favourite car. I'll probably pick one up in a couple of years when they're in the low 20's.
  4. Tell him i'll give him £300 for it.
  5. Slightly off topic - but literally every time im watching F1, im also looking on Ebay for some F1 car parts. Usually they go for astronomical prices but recently there has been quite lot available quite cheaply. I've just had the following bits delivered, total cost including postage - £30.00! 2010 Virgin F1 Engine/Exhaust Cover (race used) 2011 Virgin Push Rod Suspension Shroud 2008 Force India Engine Cover Panel Kinda sad, i know. I'm just going to stick them on my garage wall. One day i WILL own a front wing (currently cost about £1500).
  6. I've just played an hour of FC4. It's okay, but too RPG-ish for me. I've just seen the size of the map as well and it's enormous - put me off a bit.
  7. I've just picked up Far Cry 4 and CoD:AW in Tesco today for £25 each. Thats my Easter Weekend sorted.
  8. How do you manage with only 5 bedrooms????? Well it's only me and my wife... and we're not having kids! 1x Bedroom for us, 1x spare room, 1x dressing room for her, 1x office, and 1x man cave.
  9. Yeah thats the one. Doesnt bother me. Xbox One is connected and has a camera in the living room at all times. I've got nothing to hide.
  10. Yeah, where i live now this house would be in the £350-400k ballpark. Therefore i'm moving 20 minutes south to a bit of a naff town, but you get sooo much more for your money. We dont go out and arent having kids etc, so it doesnt really matter to us where we live.
  11. I was thinking ahead... i'm hopefully moving into a much larger house within the next 2 months. Just waiting for Sarnie to give me the good news that my mortgage has been approved. http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-46595581.html
  12. Arrived at 9.30am this morning. All setup within 30 mins. It's got voice control and a Wii style pointer remote which is cool. Have to say im impressed with the curved screen - it gives real depth to the picture.
  13. Man maths indeed! Nope i've never had the pleasure of a curved screen before, other than in store today. I've never really seen the point of them before, but there was one i saw today which was amazing. Granted it was an OLED 4k, but they were demoing 'Interstellar' and the space scene i was watching just seemed that much more immersive on a curved screen.
  14. Im kind of kicking myself to be honest. There was a 4k 55" LG on sale at christmas for £699, and i almost bought it but decided against it. That same TV is now up for £899. If it was still £699 i would have bought it today, but as i always have to know i'm getting a good deal, i went for the 'twice the price' Samsung.
  15. ... So i've just had to buy a new TV today. Not something i was planning on purchasing as i'm in the middle of a house move at the moment (waiting for mortgage approval via Sarnie!) so a lot of my money is spoken for. My 2 year old Samsung 55" 6-series has been getting progressively worse over the last 6 months, with the bottom 2 inches of the screen not working, and then recently a horizontal line about a 3rd of the way up appeared too. I've dismantled it previously but not managed to fix it, and i decided to have another go today - but i made it worse. I dont know what i've done, but now the picture only displays in black & white, and is pretty blurry To be honest i think i've just sabotaged myself, as i was hoping i would break it so i could buy a new one! I got an email yesterday with Curry's 'Easter Deals', and they are selling the Samsung 65" 8 Series 1080p Curved LED TV for only £1499.00! Reduced from the 'normal' price of £2800. Pretty good deal I thought, and it includes a 5 year warranty too. Good news is, it's getting delivered before 11am tomorrow. I've got the F1 on record, so looking forward to watching it on the new beast. http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/tv-dvd-blu-ray/televisions/large-screen-tvs-32-and-over/samsung-ue65h8000-smart-3d-65-curved-led-tv-22074710-pdt.html#cat-0
  16. Did they do a head to head bit? I fell asleep after the initial cameron interview, and then woke up for the last bit with Milliband.
  17. How do those times stack up against the clocks changing this weekend?
  18. Read his books? If not, you really should, they're compelling stuff and give not only a great inside into a pretty clever individual, but he goes on about his cars and knobbing Billie as well. Well worth picking up No, im not much of a reader. Dont get me wrong, i do like the guy. One of the funniest things i've ever listened to was when he had Billie on his show last year and she was talking about a new tv show she was in, and how her character had to break up with her on screen lover, and he was giving it the old 'ouch i know the feeling' jokes. I just dont think he'd fit the show. He's too much of a lone wolf imho.
  19. Damnit i spunked my wad too early! My $200 donation took the total to $1,995,707
  20. Maybe team player is the wrong word. To me Chris Evans isnt one of the guys, he knows he's superior to those around him and i dont get the sense of friendship when listening to his radio show.
  21. No, i dont like his radio show. I dont see it as much of a team at all. Definitely not as good Simon Mayo and his team on the drive home.
  22. Rowan Atkinson, Alan Partridge, and Karl Pilkington. I dont want Chris Evans - i dont see him as a team player, he's to dominant to be part of a buddy buddy cast.
  23. No. It didn't seem to be a factor. Wicked, cheers. Im gonna go for the $200 then too. However im gonna hang on for an hour and try to be the person that pushes them over the $2million mark... you never know they might throw in a bonus!
  24. Was there any postage to pay on top of the $200?
  25. I really want the signed version, but an extra 100 bucks just for a few signatures... is it worth it? Hmmm i think it could be you know...
