Couple of my mates have been using these for a number of years, I wouldn't really describe them as "fun" as you are normally asleep inside of them, but they are very practical (hardly and size or weight to them) and offer a good alternative to a tent.

Update: The £12 per annum has changed, you now just pay a one off $9.99 via Hipserv.

Sorry for the late reply! I have a Netgear Stora NAS drive, Its just the chassis and doesn't come with HD's, so I put two 1TB HDD's in, it comes with a CD with all the software you need to talk you through installation and set up. During setup you create an account and these are the details you use to long in to hipserv. Obviously, you need a PC/Mac that is already connected to the same router for this initial set up. Its a pretty simple to set up to be honest. You could spend loads more and get a lot more sophisticated NAS drives, but this does everything I need. I then downloaded the Hipserv app on to my ipad and iphone (also works with android and playbook) which again is pretty straight forward to set up, just enter the log on details of the account you created when installing the NAS drive. I store music, films and photos on the NAS drive, and Hipserv allows me to see all the files stored on it with an easy to use interface. Obviously, it works best when you are at home within your own home network, but It can be used where ever you have a wifi connection. I have used it at work and in hotels etc which offer slower broadband speeds, but it still works very well, just a little slower!! The Netgear drive and Hipserv combined offer a wide array of features so worth looking in to that via the links. I would have to mention though, that the netgear comes with a 30 days "premium" service, after the 30 days your account downgrades to a "basic" account and you have to pay £12 per annum for the "premium" service. I did think the £12 charge was a little cheeky to begin with, but I was so impressed with the features and the fact that I can also see the NAS drive via my PS3 and TV, I decided that £1 per month was worth it!! You also have to be aware of what can play on what, not all file types are compatible with all devices via this set up, for example, I cant view .avi files stored on my NAS drive on my ipad or iphone, but I can view them on my TV or via the PS3. Ah, one thing I have forgotten to mention, is that you can also access the contents of the NAS drive via anything that can view the internet, just navigate to http://www.mystora.com\yourlogon and view the files from there.

Great, bet it closes within weeks of my arrival.

Will be moving to Woolston soon and have noticed that the Grove Tavern in Swift Road will be my local. Anyone from here ever drink in there and can comment on what's it like, decent ales? good atmos? will I get my face smashed in? etc. Must admit, I've not been in yet, but from the outside, it does look like it could do with some tlc. Cheers

Futacs has only been offered a contract (on reduced terms), he hasnt actually signed. Futacs was actually entitled to a pay rise as a clause in his contract had been activated. Having gone from activating a pay rise, to being offered a reduction on your salary might not make you want to sign on the dotted line. http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/pompey-past/appy-futacs-future-is-up-to-him-1-3866811 http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/pompey-past/appy-futacs-future-is-up-to-him-1-3866811

I might be reading it wrong, but Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria and Egypt aren't in east Africa.

Ah bless 'em. Some of the comments from the deluded 'tards really do beggar belief... Because of this, and a couple of other Comical Ali stories, they think that a mystery buyer is just about to ride into town, or that Voldermort "knows something we dont" I

I wouldn't even be mates with someone that's mates with a copper.

Do something similar myself, have a 2TB NAS drive connected directly to my router. Then use an app called "Hipserv" on my ipad and iphone to access the content out and about / or at work.

I'm currently in the process of selling and buying a new house. I can honestly say that all the estate agents we have dealt with have been fine, like you say, almost falling over themselves to get me to look at houses. I reckon you are dealing with just a pushy individual/s who (in this current climate) is desperate for the commission. I've arranged about 15 ish viewings with most of the main estate agents recently (including A&W) and not one has insisted on me seeing their FA. Some have mentioned it, but once Ive said no, that's been the last you hear about it. Tell them that The Forum has come to the conclusion that he talks bu115hit.

Sh*t we've been rumbled.

Yeah, fair play for raising money and all that but he isnt the first person to do something for charity on this forum.

Apparently there are roughly 250k Pompey fans that wont have a team to watch next year, I fully expect them to take up any remaining tickets. So 32,689

Skins?

Isn't the place riddled with trolls?!?!

Bu*ger, was going to go for that date myself as transfers cant go through until that date I think. So, I'll go for July 2nd.

The ISP's, government dept etc etc should concentrate their resources on stopping paedophiles stalking / grooming kids on the internet. Much more serious, than people downloading music / films IMHO.

I love this quote.... ‘The way I see it, we are going to be one of the big fish, if not the big fish in League One next year.’ Yes, you certainly are, but not in the sense you mean.

Ah, missed the important bit where it said "funded by sponsors"... Still, they are a bunch of c**ts anyway.

How can they justify spending money on a pre season trip to Spain..... http://www.portsmouthfc.co.uk/LatestNews/news/Gibraltar-v-Pompey-3399.aspx? Doubt if they will make it to 20th July though.

Again, can someone explain to me why they are called the "phew". I understand the blue "few" as its a joke based on the fact there aren't many of them....but "phew" just doesn't make sense. or is it just me http://www.thefreedictionary.com/few http://www.thefreedictionary.com/phew

Lambert said on Twitter recently that he is "not allowed" to play for England due to the fact that he hasn't been registered in the national pool.
