    Walking with dinosaurs

    Daughter went to see this last Thursday and she said it was terrific. If you compare it with the £100 per ticket my son paid to see Tina Turner then the ticket prices are comparable.

    North Manchester

    Only since the 'powers that be' created the dreaded 'Greater Manchester'. Bloody hell Todmorden and Rochdale have Oldham postcodes but they are miles away from Oldham. It's just for the post office's convenience. I'd put money on it that the majority of people who live in Altrincham/Wilmslow...

    Manchester bus fares

    I hadn't realised that fares in Manchester had gone up so much. I live outside Burnley (moved from Prestwich) and we can get a return on the 'Witch' bus which stops outside Waterstones and the fare is only about £5.50 return for an adult and that's a hell of a lot further than Burnage to...

    North Manchester

    Which is just as well looking at some of the tossers in the Altrincham/Wilmslow/Alderley Edge/Sale areas - which are not really Manchester anyway just snotty Cheshire up-commers. True South Manchester is Withington, Didsbury, Rusholme, Wythenshawe etc - nuff said

    Putting Audio Books onto MP3 player

    Doh - never thought of that - must be having a sernior moment!! I thought because the chapters had names it would be OK but I will try re-numbering and see if that works. I've got one book that is 2 CD's but a couple of others are on 4 and even 10 CD's so will experiment with the 2 version...

    Putting Audio Books onto MP3 player

    I'm having problems putting audio books onto my MP3 player. I have some on CD's which I would like to put on. It is fine when the book is just on one CD - I can transfer it without problems but when it is on more than one then I get them transferred to my player and all the different tracks are...

    North Manchester

    Born Central Manchester, educated in Levenshulme (home of the Gallaghers) lived for years in Prestwich. North Manchester is OK in parts and grotty in parts just like South Manchester (Moss Side anyone?). As for the way they talk - I have never heard anyone else in Manchester talk like to Oasis...

    People on here who are against drugs...

    My son lives in Holland - Cannabis is legal all over the country there but they do have a different lifestyle in a lot of respects. Theirs tends to be very family centered with a lot of emphasis on healthy exercise, while they do drink in clubs and bars they don't have pubs like us. They also...

    The Street

    I've enjoyed both previous series of The Street and this series has been good so far although I agree that last night's was probably the weakest so far. I think the first one with Bob Hoskins was a cracking piece of drama. Last night I thought that Jonas Armstrong still looked like Robin Hood...

    Paypal

    This doesn't sound fair at all. I'd also wait the 12 weeks, check that he has got the goods then contact Paypal again. I know it's an expensive lesson to learn but I use ebay now and again and if I offer postage to anywhere outside the UK I insist on sending it either International Signed For...

    People on here who are against drugs...

    I think there are addictive personalities. Lots of people can either drink or smoke a bit of weed etc recreationally but then there are others who seem to become dependant on their particular drug of choice almost immediately. Gambling again can become a sort of drug for some people. For me it...

    8 year old girl disowned after being raped

    This is the second one of these dreadful cases I've seen this last week. The other one is in Brazil where a 9 year-old is pregnant by her step-father and the bloody archbishop is threatening to excomunicate the doctors if they give her an abortion. Her age is bad enough but she is physically...

    downloading, i tunes, audio books, advice needed.

    That's the way I do it too. By far the cheapest and easiest way to do it, specially for the Harry Potter ones. For modern thrillers (I do like a good murder) you could try Michael Connolly, James Patterson, Jeffrey Deaver - Scott Mariani writes about an ex-SAS chap who rescues kidnap victims...
