True, Rex. I bought a "pre-owned" Wii U game from GAME the other week and I think that was the first game I have bought from a high street store in five or six years. It felt good to pick it off the shelf and take it home!

Yeah I've only done that by trading in multiple titles on price beat thing to get 1 pre owned game. Zelda tp hd and xenoblade x. Bummer.

There's something in my attic that is making thumping noises because of the wind outside. Kept me awake half the bloody night.

My new shift colleague. Lazy strawberry float half the time, and holds his opinions as facts. Sleeps most of the night but I don't bother waking him up because he should know better anyway, but mostly if he's awake he's infuriating to talk to.

Slags off my old ward something rotten. Considering 4 out of the 5 staff have been there less than 6 months, yeah they probably do need a bit more support. It's wild down there.

Neighbours house has had something on their roof doing this for about 2 years. strawberry floating annoying as strawberry float! Don't imagine she will resolve it though as her fence has been down 3 years and hasn't done anything, and when she had a holes is somenof her tiles she tried to argue that although it is over her house it attached to my roof and so is my roof....

When I was in Iceland I saw the worst implementation of this ever. They put the airblade right into the sink, so you would wash your hands and then afterwards put your hands in a different position inside the sink to activate the dryer. The problem which became obvious to me after literally the first second of use is that the sink still has drops of water in it, since you know it's a sink and you just finished washing your hands, so when the air starts it all flies up into your face.

You are Verne Troyer and I claim my £5.

Sounds like there is something evil up there stirring and preparing to strike.

RIP in peace.

They blow the water down if you're using them properly.

Put your hands right down to the bottom then pull up through the air flow. The water will be blown down as it hits the air. Do the first one or two raises slowly.

I assume Lotus was talking about this type of Dyson airblade.

Ah, I see. Still, they're pretty good dryers. No Xlerators though:

If you listen carefully, maybe there is crying and between the sobs you hear "Squinty, please let me out. I've been locked up here 3 years and we can definitely try again".

I didn't want to frighten him by mentioning that.

It's Mommy, fixing your aerial. He's having a wank.

My eye's are going strawberry floating mental again and it's pissing me right off.
I had squint eye surgery a few years ago and all was great until about a year ago when I needed to change glasses which was fine but 6 months later bang they start strawberry floating up again and a new pair of glasses is needed and now I'm back with any concentration making writing difficult as I can barely see what the strawberry float I'm doing which is less than great and it gives me headaches on top just for gooseberry fool's and giggles.

I think I may need surgery again and the annoying thing is the this is making gaming a real chore as I can barely do half hour without a headache .

I strawberry floating better not go blind before the first series of new Star Trek finishes or I'll be strawberry floating fuming .

Monocles are more expensive than you think.

Nobody with a monocle is going to be using it regularly this time next year, let alone in 4 years time.

Also pissing me off is the kickstarter game I backed still not being released despite getting 7.5 times more than they asked for.

Liege was supposed to be out in December 2014 and still not here .
