  1. Contract is up for renewal in February. So that will mean an upgrade, of which i'll be sticking to Android. Cheers again to @Cube for recommending the Wildfire S as a starter phone. Don't know why i didn't go over to Android earlier, they are 10x better than Nokia (where i was before). I'll see what is available when the time comes for renewal, definetly going to get a more upto date model.
  2. Can't really think of other award titles, all good ones though. Looking forward to voting/taking part in the voting.
  3. I don't have that many tabs open at any-time. Usually it's just Facebook and N-E as standard. Most i've ever had open at 1 time was 15, and 1/2 of that was worthless stuff.
  4. Another draw today for Recall, who knows the result if i set tactics.
  5. Planning on purchasing a new desk chair, the one i got at the moment is getting a little worn out now.
  6. Ah it's great, nice week and a bit off work. Finished on the 23rd December, go back on the 3rd January. Going to make the most of my time off, catching up on all the T.V and DVD's i have on the shelf.
  7. Merry Christmas to all of N-E. Spent the day with the family stuffing our faces all day with all the good food. Christmas dinner was most excellent as it always is.
  8. Glad to see Murr is his normal self.
  9. "The new Mac Book, now with the multi-desktop function so simple even a baby can use"
  10. My haul this year That is also including the dressing gown in the picture at the top. Also got £80 from the parents. But that isn't what mattered most to me today. What mattered was seeing their faces opening their presents this year. All got vouchers and a present they were after as well. They liked them all.
  11. Birthday wishes to you both this fine day, hope it is a good day for you all.
  12. As i mentioned earlier, i'll send my predictions in later on. Would do it now, but the filters in work are going crazy. Sometimes can access sites, sometimes i can't.
  13. We'll have to do it in a way as not to scare her away. Gently does it as it were.
  14. Sorry ell, it was either you or somebody else (bet you wish it was somebody else) Draw with Peeps is a good start, better than a loss to be fair. Using this season as a development season, so i'm aiming to remain in the middle league. I'll make my predictions when i get home later (around 7pm).
  15. I say the same things every year, and they are 1 - Lose weight 2 - Become more social Thats all i promise myself every year, last year (2010) i lost 4 stone. This year, i hope to lose a little more. Becoming healthier in the process.
  16. I knew i should have booked today off work. Today isn't going well at all. Firstly my train no shows (again), but a train which should have gone through an hour earlier showed up. And decided to terminate in Newport to make things more "interesting". The train conducter was helpful, but it didn't help me much. Had to catch a 2nd train, which narrowly made it to Cardiff in time for me to catch my now "3rd" train. Yay public transport
  17. The DLC certainly does sound awesome indeed, i look forward to it like i do for all DLC i'm interested in. Not sure about the "prestige" though, not a lot of incentive to level-up beyond the initial level 100 to be honest.
  18. Can't be doing with work tomorrow, so booked the day off. Except it got rejected, so booked an early finish instead. If it goes through, Merry Christmas indeed!!. And my Christmas viewings have arrived, 6 seasons of Home Improvement direct from Germany. Ordered a DVD for my sister at the same time using Amazon's UK site, whilst i ordered my DVD's from Amazon's German site. Both arrived at the same time. Which is more convieniant. Edit: As i wrote the above, my early finish came through. I'm happier now.
  19. I'll thank it on your behalf.
  20. You could do what i do, and hope the youth team pops someone in who is decent. Thats where some of my players have come from, and where i will be looking first to replace a retiring player at the end of the season. I gave up last season, all them losses in the league. I know my target was to survive, and i failed. My target this year is to remain in the middle league and develop a few players before striking back to the top league again.
  21. I had prayer and hymns whilst in Primary school, and did R.E whilst in the SAT area of the comprehensive. R.E was compulsory and had to be chosen on the options we had for GCSE. Where-as, i didn't put it down along with a few others and did something else instead. The R.E teacher was one of them funny ones, she gave detention and put a few kids on report who said they were athiest. 1 kid got kicked out of school after throwing a board eraser at her whilst shouting "where's your god to protect you now?" I don't think religion is bad, i don't like to be forced to study something that i don't particulary want to study. I'm not an athiest, was born a Christian and i'll die one. Had to attend church when i was a kid, but stopped going once i was 13.
  22. Vista is the worst Windows i've used. End of. People i give advice to on purchasing new computers with 64bit W7, i always advise them to get 4gb RAM as standard. It is more than enough to sustain your computer and allow sufficient computer usage, even as far as using graphic/video-editing software. The 64bit O/S will use 2gb RAM to run itself as standard, so the more RAM you have extra, the better the system will perform. I'll need to check my computer, see if i can up the RAM higher than 4gb (which is currently has). Or even purchase a new computer for myself, mine has started having issues (it is over 6 years old now). It's quite interesting that i purchased my computer 6 years ago with Windows Vista pre-installed with factory parts built-in, with it now running Windows 7 64bit and many of the parts have been replaced with better (graphics, dual-core processor, 3.5gb extra RAM). I had an issue yesterday when the resolution changed by itself. I'm guessing it could be a graphics card issue, they have crashed a few times in recent weeks. Oh well, i could just get a new base-PC instead.
  23. Nearly accomplished 50 waves of Horde on Insane last night. Made it to wave 41 before we all died and the host decided to leave. If i didn't have work, i would have re-started myself.
  24. On the subject of NHS prescriptions, thankfully living in Wales where they are currently free. Havn't the worry of forking out for a prescription, which doesn't seem bank breaking at least. Councils take the mick when sorting things out for you, but when it is the flip-side of the coin, they are quicker than a rabbit with dynamite up it's arse. Hopefully, things will be sorted for you all having issues with the council, on the good side btw. Freezers giving the Murray a cold, that is indeed worrying. Never had a cold this close to Christmas, and i don't intend to have one before Christmas either. Thought i was close to having one last year, but luckly avoided one. And thought i was getting one on Monday, but that dribbled away into nothing as well. Best advice, sweat it out if you can. Or take some Nurofen Cold and Flu tablets, they work wonders. Pharmacy only ones.
  25. Or do they Still, the NHS is good. Yes it does need more public money to improve. But, i like how we get "near" free health-care. People say they've had bad experiences at hospitals and dentists, but i've not had a bad experience at all. I've felt comfortable knowing i'm being taken care of by professionals.
