    It's from adobe, licensed copies. Photoshop cs2 is there, for mac and windows. Cs6 is out now, so its a couple of years old, but streets ahead of gimp and other free photo editors.

    GIMP is handy, easy to use, and free. Has everything I need anyway. Photoshop just confuses me.

    Ya, I woke up this morning and looked out the window to expect there to be snow... But there wasn't

    There last week I had a dream it snowed, my mother called me I just kept replying that it had snowed. Got out of bed and discovered I caught the winter bug... Ya, not nice...

    quick question

    The CR-V is gone, great car but got a great offer so took it,

    i miss automatic now badly, getting a lil annoyed with so much manual work in the civic,

    thinking of throwing the civic up for sale and picking up either a SAAB or Volvo.

    is this a good idea ? civic has a few miles but has a lot of work and papar work to it including a clutch done 4K miles ago i think. also i would take the scummy lights and screen radio and put it all back factory basic before selling and getting a good proper valet.

    thinking selling the civic for around 8.5K o.n.o mark and getting a decent volvo or SAAB petrol 1.8T auto or 2.0T auto for less cash.

    sound good ?

    There was a lot of nervous nellies out, when it was nothing but "rain" on the ground.
    You'd swear nobody learned anything a couple of years ago.
    The All seasons on the Mazda seemed ok, if it snows worse ill know the truth later.
    The rear wheel drive action did not appeal this morning at all encase it gets worse later.

    You still doing deliveries KSL? Can't imagine the costs are going to be too appealing on an auto 2.0T petrol if you're doing deliveries.

    no im out that business now. recruitment agency has me in a call centre now so im not too worried about mpg for this. wouldrather the extra comfort and auto box

    You'd be doing very well to sell for 8.5 tbh

    Sounds like a plan but your price on the civic might be a bit out. Wouldn't limit myself to Volvo or Saab tbh, plenty choice out there, Saab or Volvo are great options though no doubt.

    Really heavy snow this morning in Dunshaughlin on the way to the train station, crawling along - as soon as I get to town... nothing, and I don't think work will believe me that I "need" to work from home tomorrow :)

    was thinking that myself tbh but I was looking around online at the year and engine and that seems to be what they come back at.

    I was gonna go with the likes of that and see what I get offered. I know I wouldn't get very close to the asking price.

    I leaning more towards volvo aswell tbh.saab not having any dealerships and all.
