  1. Mark of the Ninja for £2.99 looks interesting...must resist temptation...
  2. Swithering over buying Galactic Civilisations II Ultimate Edition for under £4, but not sure if it's worth it when I've already bagged Civilisation V Gold Edition this week...
  3. Just snapped up KOTOR2 and Terraria for under £4.Ten games I've bought so far!
  4. Cheers for the heads up guys, bagged that and Dungeons of Dredmor for under a tenner. Just need my new laptop to arrive now...
  5. I'm hoping to see Civilization Gold Edition fall further than its current £14.99
  6. Death In Vegas - Hands Around My Throat
  7. The Libertines - Boys In The Band
  8. American Pie - The Reunion. Very enjoyable, managed to capture a lot of the spirit that made the first two films so good. 7.5/10.
  9. Not unless you're already on the electoral register for that area. So if you've moved there from elsewhere, no.
  10. Played it for about an hour last night, inbetween attempting to get my son to stop screaming. Graphics are awesome, not blown away by the gameplay yet, but I don't think I'm far enough in to make a proper judgement.
  11. Took a look in Montrose Tesco this morning at 7am, but it wasn't on the shelf yet. I've got Tesco vouchers burning a hole in my pocket, and a wife going out tonight, so I think The Last of Us will be getting picked up today.
  12. Just heard that a work colleague I can't stand, and who has been the bane of my existence for the past four years, is leaving the company later this year. News that has had me smiling all afternoon
  13. Unless it's a Windows-based system, I think it's unlikely it would need anti-virus. And even if it does, there are free alternatives on the app stores.
  14. Are you using Firefox? I had that problem, it was an add-on that had been downloaded without me noticing it. Go into Tools -> Add-ons and disable or remove anything you don't recognise. It should be fairly obvious which one it is that's causing the problem by its name, something to do with advertising or promotions if I remember rightly.
  15. I've been using Audacity for years without problems, it's a free download from http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
  16. SON: "Daddy, may I ask you a question?" DAD: "Yeah sure, what is it?" SON: "Daddy, how much do you make an hour?" DAD: "That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?" SON: "I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?" DAD: "If you must know, I make $100 an hour." SON: "Oh! (With his head down). SON: "Daddy, may I please borrow $50?" The father was furious. DAD: "If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I work hard everyday for such this childish behavior." The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money? After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $ 50 and he really didn't ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door. DAD: "Are you asleep, son?" SON: "No daddy, I'm awake". DAD: "I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier. It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you. Here's the $50 you asked for." The little boy sat straight up, smiling. SON: "Oh, thank you daddy!" Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills. The man saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up at his father. DAD: "Why do you want more money if you already have some?" SON: "Because I didn't have enough, but now I do. "Daddy, I have $100 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you." The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little son, and he begged for his forgiveness. It's just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We should not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts. Do remember to share that $100 worth of your time with someone you love? If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days. But the family and friends we leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work than to our family. Some things are more important. >>>> Please Click A "LIKE" button and Share It. Is a wake up call to all fathers out there
  17. Count me in if you do decide to go ahead with the hip-hop vote.
  18. I was sure I'd voted for one of The Fireman albums. Must have bumped it for something else. And I realise now I didn't mean to vote for Bjork's Debut, I meant Post. Fanny.
  19. I did exactly the same. Have never considered Blue Lines to be electronic, but everything about Mezzanine is cold, harsh and has that claustrophobic electronic vibe to it.
  20. When did all women with Facebook access start ending every post with kisses? It's not just one or two, it's the whole lot of them. "Snowing today. xx" "Off to do the last of my Xmas shopping. xxxx" "Dining table for sale, £100. xx"
  21. It was the same for me when I did the top albums thread - listened to loads of stuff I hadn't stuck on for ages like Green Day, Ocean Colour Scene, Pulp and REM. Great thread, some effort went into those write-ups!
  22. First time I read that I thought that Laurent Garnier went to see Ross County v Ayr after playing until 5am!
  23. Hahahahahahaha! Green dot just for that line!
