Haha ... love the ending of your 'campaign' video Jason ... thumbs and whistling :¬D

Thanks Pete and pb! It's been a tough year and I appreciate everyone's support. If you fancy a laugh, the campaign videos I mentioned in my interview can be found here . Definitely was a highlight of the second year.

As for old games, I would love an Xbox emulator but barely have the time to play the games that I already own. Played Splinter Cell the other day, good fun until I realised Sam was a lot less fit back when he first started and the controls were a bit annoying as they were based on the original Xbox.

LoveFilm do that? I was aware I would have to call them to cancel, I guess I see why now! I should be on for a bonus as I have managed many a friend to sign up for them using those code cards they send out. So is Netflix unlimited devices then pb? I am at my limit of 3 for LoveFilm but don't really see me needing any more devices registered if I am completely honest.

Voted too, good luck with it.

I love old consoles too, but my wife would kill me if I brought any more in to the house!

Old Xbox with all the emulators works well for now and handles MAME pretty well too.

That said, Playstation Plus is keeping me pretty busy with all the excellent games it's given me recently.

As for Lovefilm and Netflix, I'm still on a special deal Lovefilm gave me (2 months free on the £5 streaming service) the last time I tried to leave, but I still prefer Netflix. Also, Lovefilm is limited to the number of devices you can have it on, which is a real pain.

Just voted Jason, best of luck with that mate.

Cheers Chris! Hope to stay back. I seem to be glued to my iPad wherever I go, so as freeola is my only bookmark it may encourage me to keep returning!

Got my vote HM! ;-)

Good to see you back!

Thanks guys (and Machie, thanks for the re-vote attempt. I have been told it is one vote per device)

I'm sorta hooked on iPlayer, 4oD but not Netflix, as I already have a love film account. It gets lots of use now I am at university, but also at home, opting to do my own thing when a show is on and catch it when I can be bothered on one of those apps!

I will see how I fare at the sale and anything I don't sell you are welcome to nab ;)

I tried voting again, but it wouldn't let me. I think it's because I'm using a VPN connection. Now I can finally watch Netflix, iPlayer and 4oD. Hulu is a lot more easier to use though. Just doesn't have all the UK content.

Jason I'll give you a fiver for all your old consoles and games. Oh and good luck on the big night. You deserve a win.

Nice one Jason and well done. You certainly deserve it.

I've just voted ;¬)

Cheers pb. I'm just looking forward to getting back to uni and in to a proper routine again. I also didn't mention that I am looking forward to October 18th as I am lucky enough to have been short listed as the national student of the year, of which the winner gets announced at a gala meal on the date. More on it here....

As for now, just sorting out my bedroom at home, car boot coming up and hoping to clear out my junk and make some beer money on the side!
