    I have always wanted a good quality sound system so i decided to bight the bullet and purchased this lot.

    Just installed it and the sound is amazing told my OH it did not cost that much :D :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    them for him in the middle of the year not a birthday or


    Christmas in sight ...the look on his face was priceless ...where


    as I can listen to a car radio crackling away on my journey with

    I understand this one. I was 8 when I was introduced to a+b=c. I was so traumatised that I was unable to learn any more maths!

    It pays to have a picking store just down the road... can check stock before ordering ;)

    So, ignore ofsted ratings and crime in your area.. just settle for a near by asda :rotfl:

    True..

    I had been to the store and saw the 350... god knows why they gave me a totally different one!

    p.s. never truly believe the statistics on crime rates in an area, or anything what ofsted state (I should admit that a have a number of friends who work for them!)

    My second and final walkers voucher arrived today :T

    After they refused my first in my local asda last time, i may just take the pee :D

    We have 'bought' meat/pizza and a pk of Walkers.

    Only had problems once.

    I have 14 to use, and DS2 (aka the bravest trout beater ever) is going to Slovenia, so I will have to go alone!:eek::eek::eek:
