  1. Season 3 is due to start in the states this week I think. It starts on the BBC 2 on 1st OCtober at 9pm. Was a bit shocked to hear that we were getting it so quick but I guess they had to do something considering the amount of people that download it.

    Clicky

  2. We've had a little bit of flooding here in belfast. There was a new underpass opened recently on one of the motorways leading into the city but I don't think it's been designed very well.

    Not a great pic but that's what the underpass looked like yesterday. Doesn't look like much but that puddle is 40 - 50ft deep.

  3. There will be a clamp somewhere around the bottom of the battery. just have a quick look, should be easily spotted. Undo this to remove the battery after disconnecting the terminals. There's a big + and - on top of the battery, make sure the new batteries terminals are the same way round as the old one.

    There's not a lot that can go wrong and it's only 12v so you'll be in no danger.

    EDIT. Beat to it by the Pimp.

  4. Bought the Mrs a Sony Headunit for christmas that has usb on the front of it. It's great for playing music from her 2gb mp3 player and I've plugged my 8gb Nokia N81 into it. It plays tracks from the Nokia but because of the larger storage space, it takes a few minutes to read the storage before it starts playing so I imagine it would take a hell of a lot longer for a large storage device.

  5. I got the HD DVD drive knowing that Blu Ray would eventually win, but I wanted Transformers in HD and I got 5 free movies (these alone cover the price of the player) so no great loss to me at all. I'll buy a Blu Ray player when they are a bit more reasonably priced and put it next to the HD DVD player.

    Plus all those unlucky HD DVD owners will soon have a load of cheap movies available.

  6. Take a few sick bags with you, there have been reports of the home video style filming causing motion sickness.

    I quite fancy going to see it but the mrs doesn't (serenity made her feel ill) so I may just wait for the DVD.

  7. I'm trying to lose some fat at the minute. Dropped around 2 1/2 stone last year, from 14 1/2 stone down to 12. I did it all wrong though. Dropped my calories too low so lost lean tissue and when I started eating again before christmas I piled on the pounds (back at 14 stone).

    So this time round I'm only dropping my calories by a few hundred. Maintenence is around 2800, so dropping it to 2500.

    Workout is as follows. Losing around 2 pounds a week on this so far.

    This workout has a lot of supersets to make it a bit more intense. On Tuesday for example I would start with a set of flat dumbell press and then get straight into a set of seated rows, rest for 30 secs and repeat. Tuesday and thursday are low weight, high rep. Saturday and sunday are slightly heavier with less reps.

    Tuesday - Upper body - 12-15 reps; 60 seconds rest, gradually reducing to 20-30 seconds

    A1 - Flat Dumbbell Press x 4

    A2 - Seated Row x 4

    B1 - Dumbbell shoulder press x 4

    B2 - Close grip chin ups x 4

    C1 - Dumbbell Curls x 3

    C2 - Dumbbell Tricep Extension x 3

    Thursday - Lower body - 12-15 reps; 60 seconds rest, gradually reducing to 20-30 seconds

    A1 - Leg Press x 4

    A2 - Stiff legged Deadlift x 4

    B1 - Leg Extension x 4

    B2 - Leg Curl x 4

    C1 - Seated Calf Raises (30 seconds between sets)

    Wednesday - Rest

    Saturday - Upper body - 8-10 reps; 45-60 seconds rest

    A1 - Flat Bench Press x 4

    A2 - Bent Over Row x 4

    B1 - Dumbell shoulder press x 4

    B2 - Wide grip chin ups x 4

    C1 - Barbell Curls x 3

    C2 - Skull Crushers x 3

    Sunday - Lower body - 8-10 reps; 90 seconds rest, reducing to 45-60 seconds.

    A1 - Squat x 8

    A2 - Stiff legged Deadlift x 8

    C1 - Standing Calf Raises (30 seconds between sets)

    Easing myself into some cardio at the minute too. Straight after an upper body workout I'll do 20 minutes on the treadmill and after a lower body workout I'll do 20 mins on the cross trainer (sod trying to run after 8 sets of squats on sunday). Gonna work this u to 30-40 minutes.
