  1. Who? This information, plus the Liam Lawrence walking perfectly well in Warsash snippet, would make great Twitter fodder
  2. Almost correct. Your existing Sky box will continue to receive the Freeview channels (plus a few more over and above FreeSat, but nothing decent) but you WILL NOT be able to use the pause/record features: the box simply becomes a decoder/tuner box. If you want the 'Sky+' / PVR features, you have to pay £10/mth to Sky. I'm in my cancellation period with Sky as they hacked me off over a billing issue. I was thinking of switching to FreeSat anyway, but half hoping Sky would contact me to offer some incentive to stay, but they haven't. The only reason for me staying with Sky is for the football. Other than that, the basic Freeview channels are enough for us. Connected to the tv we have an Apple TV and have signed up to Netflix - to the Apple TV we can stream movies, music, tv shows etc from a networked drive (Mac Mini), AirPlay things from iPhones and iPads etc. By using someone else's SkyGo sign in, we'll watch the football AirPlayed to the TV and Sky can go fūck themselves. It's the Humax Foxsat or possibly the Sling box for me. Anyone had any experience of the Sling FreeSat box?
  3. You should consider the Veho Muvi instead. Great piece of kit, with loads of quality mounts. There's tons of pov footage on YouTube from them. Good prices too. They're also local with a UK office/warehouse in Hedge End, and one of the guys, Ben, is a top bloke and a big Saints fan, and is/ was a member on TSW/TSF/S4E for ages. Not sure which cam you'd need, but I'm sure they would advise you. Veho are on Facebook and Twitter - try Ben At Veho: @ben_vallance
  4. Bōllocks to them. Besides, kids are fickle - he'll only have 17miles to travel to watch Premiership football as he's growing up. The one thing that brings a smile to my face is the thought of all the bitter skates having no football league club and their kids and grandkids growing up following their nearest league club at St Mary's.
  5. Have you told your gym buddy that you dream about fūcking him up the ārse?
  6. Correct. As ever, Apple were way ahead of everybody in refusing to entertain the idea of allowing the buggy and power-hungry Flash onto its devices. With 50 million iPad 2s expected to be bought this year, plus the hundreds of millions of iPhones out there, all major sites (and minor ones!) will be seeing the light. Flash is dead, people. Get over it and get on with complaining and pestering the web designers and site owners to move on.
  7. I used to be the same, but got fed up with the stupid prices that new blades cost. For the last 5 or 6 years I've only ever bought Aldi's own blades. Twin blades x10 used to be a stupid 99p and were just as good as Wilkison Sword / Gillette. Then a couple of year's ago they discontinued the twin blades for triple blades. Now they're £1.99 for 10, but are good and I'll never pay the stupid prices again. Also, did you buy the Apple TV yet? With Netflix it's even more awesome.
  8. A woman?

    Fifa 12

    There is now a skill to defending unlike previous versions. You really need to learn when to switch the player you're controlling and when to back off mark while letting the jockeying player do his thing. Try to never switch players as a cross or corner comes in as you'll lose a yard or two and get done most times. I'm not one for tinkering with tactics and formation really - I just play as different teams until I find one that kind of suits the way I play. Played lots as Saints initially and did ok; Had a good spell as Everton; But now I pretty much always play as Juventus. I leave it as the standard players, formation and tactics: then make three substitutions near the end when the same players tire. I only ever play online Head To Head league games really. Currently plying my trade in Division 5. If anyone fancies a game sometime (Xbox 360) then add my gamer tag Essruu.
  10. If you were the PR girl and recognised the big fat Brit golf groupie from previous events, wouldn't YOU look depressed at the thought of him asking some dumb questions or trying to get his thumbs up photos with the players?
  11. :-)
  12. Agreed. "Driving the wrong way down a one-way street at 50mph." sounds much better.
  13. I've just realised how un-pc that may read. For clarification: I wasn't in any way suggesting you force a black man to kill your cat.
  14. Spade, whack, spade, woods, dig, spade, bury.
  15. "...force full of faggots, we've got a force full of faggots, force full of faaaaggots" Something like that?
  16. I don't understand the need for condoms for contraceptive reasons with one's regular partner / girlfriend / wife, and couldn't imagine having to wear one every time. It's a needless faff when you can just pull out and squirt it over her face, her tits or down her throat.
  17. Michael Jackson. He was just a bad pantomime without his brothers.
  18. I don't see how telling a small child that a fully grown adult has been flushed down the loo like a goldfish, or put in a wheelie bin like a gerbil is going to help.
  19. You "Had some great nights in there" probably explains why it's struggling. You and everyone else on Facebook seems to think it is a shame they're closing, but haven't been there in ages... go figure.
  20. What C is a wooden box that Bob Holness now calls home?
  21. The supposed venue isn't in the City Of Southampton; It's in the Test Valley district - so please p1ss off with your constant and pathetic slating of my city... or feck off to the PO post-code areas you love so much.

    Apple Tv

    You cleverly pointed out that you can stream movies from your HTC to the WDTV. Cleverly, as in 'omitted to mention' the inability to stream other non-movie content in the same way that you can on iOS devices with AirPlay - for photos, music, many Apps, for mirroring your device's screen onto your TV screen etc.
  23. Nothing wrong with the Lallana//Messi song IMO. It's one that can't be sped up to 100mph and ruined, unlike OWTSGMI and most other songs Saints sing. Plus, the arm-swaying actions create a good visual impact when the whole end does it. Don't let the skates sway your minds people. The biggest clubs in britain do it: - The Saints Man Utd Celtic
