Make sure your display drivers are up to date. I spent a wasted afternoon solving a black screen problem pretty much immediately after upgrading.

The Running Man. Way way way darker than the film.

My brother in law went through the mill with this bullsh*t a few years ago. He was on an agencies books and was working in a warehouse for some home shopping company. One day at the end of his shift, everyone that worked in his section got binned off because they thought someone had been nicking...

I got Rugby 7's. Handy seeing as I'm a rugby player and already know the rules

I had this about 2 weeks ago. Went to Sports Direct for a new pair of trainers just for using at the gym, and the very very occasional road run so I saw a pair of New Balance that looked OK. Asked for my size, and the shop assistant came back with a pair of Karrimor and said that they didnt...

The population is definitely getting chunkier. I too am a mega-lard-arse and I've just started on a kind of Paleo diet to get me on the right track. I've lost just over a stone in 3 weeks and I'm eating healthier than ever. In my opinion, it's the supermarkets that are behind all this...

About 3 months I bought an Aerobie Air press coffee maker (yes, Aerobie, the frisbee people) and it is by far and away the best coffee gadget i have ever bought. Makes a perfect cup of coffee every time.

I can't view the video at work (they've disabled Youtube during work hours somehow) but. Before Christmas I suffered from extreme shortness of breath, and just after new year I keeled over. Turned out I had a Pulmonary Embolism and survived by the skin of my teeth. Go to the doctor, if only to...

Gaelic Athletic Association. They are like the FA for all Gaelic sports.

Hurling and Gaelic football are brilliant, but the only reason people over here don't really follow it is because of the ultra-insular nature of the GAA. They must've had some sort of seismic shift at the top to do this deal with Sky.

Has anyone done anything with the Open University? I'm looking at doing a degree with them and wanted to see what they are like.

That sounded like a hard day at the office for Dorchester. Worst i've ever been on the end of was 108--0 when we were battered by a team full of ringers (6 leagues higher than us). The ref should've stopped this game after an hour (rugby games have to be at least 60 minutes long for the result...

Is it just me who sees shades of Sudetenland in all this?

I work a couple of miles away from it in Lower Broughton, and my office stinks of burning plastic now.

Or Salford could be getting a new Pope.

I used to lurk a lot on teamtalk, and when de niro et al tried to get to the Faroe Islands I decided that if someone on here loves City enough to travel to a game by fishing trawler, this was the place to be.

From left to right: 1) OBE/MBE (not sure which, probably OBE) Military division 2) British Empire Medal, 3) The 1939 - 1945 Star, 4)The Atlantic Star, 5) The Defence Medal, 6)The War Medal.

I swear by Creative EP-630 earphones. They perform miles better than most other stuff I've ever tried.

As a kid I loved the Roald Dahl books, especially the BFG, but what got me hooked as an adult was The Day of the Jackal by Frederick Forsyth. I've read everything he's ever written and they are nothing less than superb.

I work a little bit down the road from the Mocha, pure Shameless country. Makes Afghanistan look like a nice place to move to.
