That's the same as what i got only mine was blue. Also got it from Currys. The twonk salesman was trying to tell me that i needed to pay £7 more for the "for Mac" version as it was going on a Mac Computer. :chicken: When i asked why i couldn't use the normal one he replied "different OS so it won't recgonise it as it's in the wrong format"  So i made him aware of the fabulous app called disk utility and the setting that erases and formats in HFS, to which he told me "it won't work and you will ruin the HD"  :confused:

I just took the disk anyway and said "i'll come back if i'm wrong". Funnily enough it worked perfectly  :grin:



Why would you even ask anyone in that store for advice?

This arrived at work today, should last a little while,.



Then after reading through the detailing section I decided to look to gather some bits together.
Starting with these, Halfords had a 2 for 3 so either the megs or AG was free



Also looking at some wheel cleaner IronX or Berry, Poorboys White Diamond, 476s wax.
Unless someone else has a better suggestion for Reflex Silver??

I use 476s as it lasts for yonks and gives protection for yonks! There will be better waxes to make it look better but wont last as long!

Some stuff from my NYC trip:

Pair of classics:


Wanted a pair of these for a while (couldn't find a pic online so took my own):


This in Black/Red:


Similar jacket to this:


Classic pair of 501's (excluding the boots :P)


A 1.36kg bag of these (with 50 flavours) :laugh:


Excuse the size of some of the pics, all I could find.

Thanks to a rather generous work discount (I work at Cable & Wireless, now Vodafone) i ordered a a new phone for my wife as a surprise. Not bad for less than £15ppm with unlimited text,minutes and 3GB of data :)


You ordered a phone and you got wood? (snigger) :jumpmove:

 :signLOL: Got myself some wood last week…very nice :happy2:

Got our first child on the way, so picked up a Recaro baby seat the other day along with ISOFIX base.

Had to go for black and red of course...

I have one of the Young Expert Plus for my son. Very good seat and will last him till he is about 4yrs old. He has only just turned 1 so it was a good investment.
