Hang on ... you don't do 'frantic banter' :¬D

'Thinks' ... should that be 'sporadic banter'....

Holy crap, this place is dead: everyone but the top 5 have posted less than 1 post a day over the last year.

Know what you mean Hedfix, but maybe they're busy elsewhere like jobs and at school ... or maybe it's because there is no 'gentle banter' as before:¬)

Four in that list have only been here for less than 6 months anyway[/i]

Surely it's only gentle banter keeping us going most of the time? Frantic banter would create more post counts. Even with 5 regular posters this forum isn't exactly dead, though its obviously far from busy.

Until Freeola have a decent stab at properly promoting the forums or finding a running theme to unite people it will probably stay that way, but I get the feeling that the forums aren't exactly a priority.

Afternoon.

Busy morning again, so much for time off work!

Got everything prepared for Los Reyes Magos tomorrow, presents and sweets sorted and have been invited to a group celebration from other Spanish families in the area.

And ....?

A phone that was very much on it's last legs, sliders had disconnected from the phone and only the screen wire was holding the two parts together. My dog just jumped onto the desk attempting to get my attention and knocks it on the floor. Now have two bits of phone...

I have a 46'' Panasonic plasma which I bought about a year ago. No idea what the model no. is without checking but it had every feature on it bar internet TV and 3D (wasn't interested in either). Think Panasonic make a USB dongle to connect it to the net if I really wanted to. Not sure about prices at the moment but it was far from being the cheapest option when I bought mine. I have also got an LG LED backlit LCD panel in another room. The 360 looks fantastic on it and to be fair it was very good value for the money, but it's not a patch on the plasma.
