I borrowed my sisters focus estate and we filled it level with the backs of the seats. complete fit out for the kitchen, and shelving for 3 rooms.
we'd have brought more, but it's a van we'd have needed.

in fairness it's a handy drive up. motorway most of the way, and you're right next to the M50. 550km round trip.

oh - and they're well set up for problems like the multipack thing in ikea. they just move you to the side, send you off and pause the receipt, and start with the next in line. soon as you're back, they resume the transaction. minimum fuss. I suspect it happens all the time.

Tears of the Sun starting on RTE2 now, not watching it as I saw it years ago on DVD but a good show, nearly brought a tear to RJs wise eyes :eek:

Dinner at Il Primo, followed by a session of learning songs for audition tomorrow which was supposed to be last week. Bring on the Coffee!!

Owen

Got the audition, well chuffed. Has to be the most elated I've felt in a long time. Can't wait to start gigging too, haven't played in Reardens in ages.

Can you tell us who you will be playing with? Or iz it a secret

Owen

Would I love to! Only, the name hasn't been decided on yet. All established musicians who've played with the bigger bands though, so it's nice to be getting back into that scene after 7 years of playing Weddings.

I watched it last night based on your reccomendation. It was okay I was nowhere near tears but there was one scene that had me in shock. I think you know what I mean.

well, we all got in eventually but it was looking dodgy there for a while, it was actually pretty quiet in there for a Friday so they probably couldnt turn away the business:pac:

Morning homes!

Nearly Superbowl weekend! Can't wait! Then Venice hopefully!

Has anyone here playing Two Worlds on PC?

Man I'm yawning already - never a good sign at the beginning of a shift.

Sorry I made a mistake, I meant Guild Wars. Meant to be like WOW but without subscription fees. I haven't bought it but it's going cheap in game for the 3 games so was thinking of picking it up.

No fees eh? *rushes into game* :pac:

Ha ha yeah! Looks like a classic MMORPG which sounds right up my alley expecially considering the "no subscription fee" is confirmed. The graphics and (yes I always judge a book by it's cover) box look awesome as do the actual gameplays on youtube. I've read a lot of reviews but wanted to see if anyone here has dabbled in it.

I'd love to get WOW but I know it'd be the end of me and I'll play myself into a world of debt!

Enjoy it! I'm going home today after work to finish it cause my OH is back in work. Time for me to hog the xbox!

Are you on xbox or ps3 for fable3?

I couldn't believe it when I saw it at that price. I hid it in the shop and went and checked how much it was elsewhere. Every other place I looked was €40 for a pre-owned copy.

X-box for me, don't have a PS3 yet.

Are you on live? The achievements are much tougher in this Fable considering all of the collectibles and they've a very low gamerpoint too! There are a good few co-op ones for xbox-live friends. Fancy having a go of them when you've played through the game a bit??

One of the demon doors (don't read this next part if you don't want to know how it opens)

can only be opened if you bring a Live friend with you to it.

:rolleyes: Infuriating!

I din't read the spoiler but when I quoted your message it was hidden anymore. :rolleyes: I've never used xbox live but I'd be willing to give it a go if the game is good enough.
