Good. Works for me. I don't want to see this kind of behaviour in F1. Massa must be feeling like shit. Just hate how obvious it is. Let the drivers race. Ferrari's reply is that it was Massa's decision to let Alonso pass. Yeah alright. I suppose Massa will stick to that story too to stop the team getting in trouble.
-
They are going to be investigated apparently. Good. Would love the points to be docked. How funny would that be.
-
LOL @ Alonso for the worst interview explanation going. My hate for Ferrari builds more every year.

1 - Deadeye Duck from Bucky O'Hare?
-
Good point. I do still listen to them occasionally but perhaps it's time for a sig change.
-
Currently listen to this track everyday so I guess I'm a little bit addicted to it...
-
I have to say this is looking awesome. I'm well pleased it's not just another remake which seems to be the in thing at the moment. Can't wait to see it.
-
Ah yes J7wicked. It is weird, we've been on here for such a long time. A lot of good memories and laughs which I hope will long continue I still have that sig you created me... Awesome.

16 year old Libertine fans? That means a lot of those kids were into the libs when they were 8-10 years old? I think the libs crowd will be slightly older like me or of course just recently got into them But anyway yeah I'm looking forward to Arcade Fires new album. I'm not gonna stream or download it though, I'm gonna buy it and play it as it should be, I never download music even paid for. Some weird OCD thing I have of needing to have the physical copy with the artwork etc. Love the previous two albums and they were amazing when I saw them headline Latitude in 2007.

Cheers guys. No other websites, just don't have the time anymore and haven't for while really. Hahaha very good. Flinky will be proud of you.

They killed him off in the comic! bah! When I was a youngling and watched the cartoon, Gambit was by far my favourite character. Don't know why, he just was! I was so annoyed that he wasn't in any of the films and perhaps that's why I liked Wolverine origins as he was in it, Although I was slightly disappointed in his character.
-
Ok ok, I don't mind a reboot as long as Gambit is a main character and he has a flirty relationship with Rogue throughout.

Lovely people of N-E. I've decided to hang up my Admin boots. Long overdue really in all fairness. For a year or more I've not really contributed to the site as an Admin and left it all to Ashley and Shorteh. This is mainly due to getting older and my "real" life taking priorities. Work, Girlfriend and the outside world. A little bit of history for those who don't know me too well; I've been part of the wonderful community here for 10 years. I started as a lurker in the days of N64europe before finally joining the forums to chat about the new Nintendo console named Dolphin (later renamed Gamecube of course).This was all back in the xsorbit forum days, ah the memories. During my college years I spent most of my life on the forums and met a lot of different characters and friends. I soon became a mod of gen chit chat and swiftly took power of most of the other boards too. I also become part of the C-E elite (hahah who remembers that? ). I done various work for the main site, Mainly representing C-E at Nintendo parties due to being old enough to do so. This was awesome as I got to meet a lot of people in the media and got lots of free stuff! I became an Admin when there were big changes happening not only with the main site but to the forums aswell. The creators and Gods leaving us, the site being sold etc etc I quickly assembled a new team and kept the forums running. I worked very hard on the change over to vBulletin and created a lot of what we have here now before my techie abilities failed me and Ashley picked up the pieces and still continues to sort out and implement forum changes. Of course it's not all been plain sailing throughout my time as Admin. There has been quite a few attacks on the forums and lots of issues and nasty members to deal with. But overall I've enjoyed it and I'm very grateful to be part of the community. I'm still gonna be here and visit on a regular basis like I always do but I feel we should have Admins who are more active and prolific in carrying out Admin tasks. I no longer do this so no longer deserve the red name. I'm rambiling a bit now so I would just like finish this post by saying that we have built an amazing online community over the years which has only been possible because of you, the members. So keep it up N-E! Cheers for reading. Admin Platty signing off

I personally didn't think the wolverine one was THAT bad. I actually quite enjoyed it.
-
What is it lately with films being "rebooted" or remade. Leave them alone. I hope this film is still in continuity with the X-Men movies, would hate a reboot and a new timeline. Does my nut in. I would also love more Gambit! Although I think that's unlikely.
-
I've joined. Came second last year but I don't feel I'm gonna have that much time to keep updating it this season... EDIT: Vidic has apparently agreed to a new contract today which will hopefully be finalised before the start of the season. Looks like his wife has had a change of heart or he has manned up and put his foot down Good news for us.

Wouldn't mind any from The XX, Laura Marling, Foals or Mumford to win. Although I love Weller the new album is not all that. I was at Latitude festival last weekend and was lucky enough to see The XX, Laura Marling and Mumford. All were superb. The XX sound is truely amazing live.
-
Sounds good enough to me. As long as it lasts more than a day. I think I may go for it unless there is a newer HTC coming out soon?
-
I hate city. Flinky have you seen our new kit? looks rather nice.

This thread exists for your existential crisis... or does it?
Platty replied to gaggle64's topic in General Chit Chat
Looking up to the stars does this to me quite a lot. Not so much if I exist or not but it makes me feel really insignificant and I start to question my life and choices. Then I remember I actually have a good life compared to so many in the world. I'm alive firstly and enjoying it, I have a fantastic girlfriend, great friends and a good job. Apart from getting balder everyday I can't complain. However, a few days later, I look up to the stars and get the same feeling again. I like the stars, I find them very relaxing to stare at so I do it quite a lot. -
I get it in bed quite a bit for some strange reason considering I'm laying still. Hurts like hell but rather sadistically I have to keep moving my leg or foot back to see if the pain is still there and test my threshold.

My contract is up in a couple of months and I have started to look at new phones. I don't want the iPhone but was thinking about one of these HTC phones. Is the Desire the best aside from the nexus one? I'm on o2 and they offer the Desire (at a price on the cheaper contracts) so was gonna go for that. Interested in peoples views on what it's like, apps, battery life etc etc. Cheers

Some good ones already mentioned. Couple of my favs below:

I've used them in the past to seek out some "fun" and it worked pretty well and if I ever split up with my current girlfriend I'll probably use online dating. It's just easier to find people who have the same interests as you rather than heading out to pubs/clubs etc. It's also pretty handy if you lead a busy life with work etc. However, I did meet my girfriend on a bus after we just kinda started randomly talking to each other....still together 4 years later. A friend of mine is now married, with a 2 year old kid. They met through an online dating site and have been together 5 years now. Online dating is good but don't solely rely on it.
