  1. Missions to be honest, and I need to keep the engine size down for insurance at the moment after a drink drive ban. Might have a look into that a bit though...
  2. That's a very valid point... I've got a lot of research to do tomorrow it seems! The other option is to rope a mate into a road trip lol.
  3. I'll do some research because that sounds like some fun...
  4. Yea I was always waiting for the box to go, it's been whining for a while now - I was just hoping it would last long enough for me to have the cash to refurb it before it went. No such luck! Might just sell the car as is to someone who can be bothered with it and get something else.... If it would fit, and you wanted to get rid of it, how much for your close ratio box?
  5. My gearbox just turned itself into a box full of pointy bits Anyone got a 1.4 16v 6n polo box floating around? Long shot being as there's so few of them about. What else could I use, any ideas?
  6. Don't wanna be too much of a pedant, but strings are designed to have near enough equal tension in relation to each other for their specific note range. Thats why you have different string thicknesses in the first place. As someone who went through a period of changing my strings every other day and playing 9/10 hours a day, I'm fairly confident in being right in my restringing technique. Everyone has different ways of doing things though...
  7. Shit comes out their mouths too, doesn't mean you turn down a blowy, amirite?
  8. Shouldn't make a difference if you put the strings on well enough, and they aren't 9's or something. Does it stay in tune in standard? EDIT: By "well enough" I mean sticking the strings on with a few winds worth of string at the machineheads, tune it to standard, then pull each string in turn away from the body a few times. Tune it back up to standard, and repeat this process until when you go to retune it it's basically already in tune. This is pre-stretching your strings, meaning that they wont stretch as much during play.
  9. You don't mind having cock slapped on your face. By my reckoning, that means you also like it inserted into your anus Sound logic, I think you'll agree.
  10. so you're the closet homosexual?
  11. It's Hard fi - Cash Machine
  12. Nah, totally not a dig, I guess I just don't sit there admiring my gear as much as others. I can totally understand why people would though... All the kit in this thread is niiice. One of my fave guitars to play at the moment is a blue encore strat copy, such a dirty horrible sound but just 'feels' right. I love that about guitars, you can spend thousands on a shit one and sometimes be lucky enough to spend bugger all on something you'll love forever.
  13. apologies for the blurry and me included pics, but I use my kit as tools rather than things to take pictures of... godin lg SP90 + Kustom 120DFX (or something) + Marshall 2x12 with greenbacks long ago stolen, but the best guitar I ever owned
  14. If anyone else has any 48 hour trials floating about they want to be nice and PM me then I would be mega happy. It's one of the things I need to check out about this brick I've bought to check it's not banned before I buy a 12 month subscription. Thanks muchly
  15. Cant help but LOLZ at all the suggestions of drink and drugs in here. This is why TF is such a good place for medical advice. Don't f**k about with fags, alcohol or weed on their own though. Do all 3 and chuck some K in there too, that should knock you out for a good few hours. It's a pleasure by the way.
  16. I just accidentally a whole sentence
  17. 'with a sock' never really annoyed me, but it seems to have disappeared here.

    Nye 08!

    i'm off to play a set in a mates front room, like all the cool kids do. Then we pack away, leaving the PA up and change the music from Pocket Rockets alternative stuff to some dirty drum n bass. I'm really looking forward to it, haven't played live in ages and playing to room full of people who are far too f**ked up is always more fun than any other time! Enjoy everyone
  19. Just won me an Xbox on ebay, has the E74 error but that's no biggy. I'll do the xclamp fix on it and hopefully that will sort it, if not I'll force it to RROD and take advantage of the fact it's still in 3 year warranty or sell it Don't have any games though... Forza 2 or Cod4 for pure entertainment value as a first game? I love both genres of games on everything else I've played so I'm not fussed whether I end up driving or shooting first of all. Also, I've heard that you can use other wireless adaptors than the official one - can anyone shed any light on this?
  20. As far as I'm aware, and I've done this in the past thinking it was completely legal, it is fine to use a warez site to download a copy as a backup. As you say, it's the license to use the software that you are buying, not the software itself. Just be aware that to have it install correctly you will need the right version of XP - i.e. Home/Pro/Corporate SP1/2/3 - otherwise it will just say you have an invalid key. Your other option, if you're not comfortable with that, would be to give Microsoft a call. They may well, on approval of your serial number, send you a set of CDs. What about a set of OEM discs from an independent computer retailer somewhere? I'm sure if you got friendly with one and explained the situation you'd be able to borrow a set to install from.
  21. Anyone know anyone with a RROD console they want to get rid of because it's out of warranty or something?
