Finally got the new laptop able to install torrents (don't ask) and battled a download speed of 109kbps and then a laptop to HDMI link that would NOT give me audio no matter WHAT I plugged/unplugged to FINALLY watch the first episode. Promising, very promising. Found Confidential really interesting as well - that was never available on the S4 dodgy DVD's I got in Thailand (cos we couldn't download at the time and official ones weren't on sale) - the amount of work they put in to the outdoor scenes and the stuff about Matt Smith's family not believing he'd got the job (let alone the rest of us) Like some of the Teasers as well did I see a Jude Law Sky Captain style in there somewhere? Spitfires in space? - sweet - not to mention Blink 2.. Looking forward to this now

Interesting that someone talks of the Beeb being given stuff. Having a Black Eyed Peas moment - I gotta feeling I am getting snippets that the game of how they played strip the assets is starting to become clearer. From what I gather from the scraps of allegations, Al Fahim "invested" 5mil which came back through the BVI from Mirage who got 10mil through from Chanrai who gets 15mil through from the parachute payment. Almost all the future income sucked out and not a penny in the club and each of them clearing around 5mil somehow or another. This is not the actual detail but just how the whispers appear to be dropping into line. Oh and of course a nice tidy fee for the admin of the TV money. Everything sucked out and not a penny for anyone who's owed anything and not even a corpse left one minute after they qualify for the parachute payment. All AA has to do is get them to that day they are "qualified for the parachute payment" What was that Sci-Fi movie with the line "Somethings' Coming"? and it ain't gonna be good news for anyone including Football

It's had a devastating effect on the Polish people. My GF and all her friends here have been in a state of shock all day. So many questions as well, not least why did the pilot ignore the ATC advice to divert and then had the wrong descent path and airspeed. Very very sad and leaves you really struggling to find the right thing to say to someone.

Just had a Deja Vu moment..... It's the Hope that kills you. More weeks of nerves, tenderhooks and drama to come I think. Banana skins and downs and ups, how will they shake out, which cliche can we use next will they be tears of joy or sorrow, will the JPT experience be the thing that gets us through the play-off final. Hell this is worse than waiting for the next episode of Dr Who/The Pacific etc..... And some of us only get it on shaky downloads as well. Arrrggghhh

When was the last time RL scored a screamer FK he's been off the boil of late

The 73rd any moment now would be very helpful
-
My thoughts entirely, having them both in melt down keeps DM talking about the importnat thing now is not giving anythingaway now
-
He looks at the bench to see if we can tighten things up for the last few minutes and sees Wotton...... Think we need a second

Thx Art, I actually have 698 Sat channels at the moment and about to get a "internet link thingy" from a little chappie in Satwa and will go back to 1,749. (So I can get the WC of course) Trouble is then finding something you want to watch that isn't habla habla shuchran Why is it that when they LEAVE SMS it doesn't cut out yet as soon as they go back to the taters we s rt o s u t r

No chance of having a search for the National on weird Arabic channels, the GF just got back from work & is glued in tears to CNN with the whole Polish air crash nightmare. Stuck on here for the night then. Another great save from KD from Bailey
-
And of course we ain't got any coverage of the Grand National

Oi, we've been very good today. Haven't even started to mention the beer fridge disaster I had yesterday or the fact that it is starting to get humid down here.
