  1. Thanks for the reply's chaps. Sadly he is still after one but I am winning the war and getting him to at least consider an alternative cheaper model. In my favour is the apparent diabolical wifi connection that Alienware pc's suffer from. Heard its not great even right next to the router.So he is a bit concerned about that flaw.
  2. http://www.dell.com/uk/p/alienware-aurora-r4/pd?ST=alienware%20aurora&dgc=ST&cid=41141&lid=1069630&acd=239715600820560 Thats the link I think, when I chose all the options he wanted, ie the most expensive, it came in at £2700.
  3. My son wants one of these computers, scarey looking things by the way lots of lights and stealth black. But at £2700 I think its a tad stout, especially as it appears to be owned by DELL, Its a games computer if I am reading things right but still does all the things a PC should, My question is how much would it cost roughly to have one made privately? Same spec obviously without the scarey case.

    man flu

    echinacea is more of a placebo than a remedy it is also linked to intestine problems such IBS and even bowel cancer.
  5. Glad I read this, I have been looking at a Isuzu trooper at a local garage thats up for sale. I'll proceed with caution. Had a similar experience with a Pajero. If I had joined POCUK before I bought it I wouldnt have wasted my money. Reading that forum is like a horror story, there is not one instance on there where someone has had a trouble free day with one.No idea why they still have them.
  6. Yep its all gone a bit mamby pamby. I think rustins still make a caustic/acid based stripper though probably not for much longer. Nitromors varnish stripper was the the biz but like HP sauce is pretty useless now.
  7. As most paint products are going waterbased you will probably find this new nitromors strips water based gloss and varnish like the old one did with oil based products.
  8. I'm sure there is a stargate in a field just off the M6 not far from the M1 junction, certainly looks like one, big round circle with what looks like markings round it.
  9. According to most critics the opening scene of the film is epic but after that it becomes a bit of a bloater.

    Chickens

    Easy to keep but if your coop is going to be a permenant fixture then you might want to think about letting them out for a ramble, ie fence a larger area off with the coop inside if you have the space, but if your not about all day they are at risk from fox. I let mine out into the garden but its fenced all round so they just have the garden roam about in. I open the coop just before I go to work, so they are free to come and go as they please, but the missus is in all day so she keeps an eye on them.

    Iphone issue

    Thanks from me on this subject too, my 4S is always going wonky with the sound, went into the Apple Store and asked in there but came out with a headache and still none the wiser.

    I have Gold Lines which like Orpingtons are an ideal "starter" breed,,good layers about 300 a year and easy to keep, was going to move on to posher breeds but quite happy with the goldlines, Dont be tempted to buy a ready made coop and house online especially from a company thats named after a large river, a determined fox or even cat could be inside in no time, they look good in the pics but once you have assembled it, you will see what I mean. Build one yourself but if possible make it portable as chooks will reduce your grass to stuble in no time, and then they will be prone to bacteria and parasites from the bare dirt. You just pick it up and move it to a new spot so the old area can recover, thats what I do anyway, bit of a pain fox proofing it in its new position each time but thats the joys of chook keeping.
  13. Not a lot on telly worth watching but I am guilty of watching and laughing at The Big Bang Theory, why? I have no idea!.
  14. If you happen to be pretty good with an American accent it works perfectly. Took me a while to get it to tell jokes, but it still dont do knock knock jokes no matter how hard I try
  15. I remember getting a 16k memory cart for my VIC20 for christmas. Totally pointless!!
