Possibly. It was certainly painful enough.
Catching up on TV I'd recorded while waiting for wife to bring kids back from school. Haven't seen the outside world since Friday.

Morning.
The Verve were right, the drugs don't work.
But did they make you worse? If not you should give them less credit :P

What are you even talking about?
Morning.
The Verve were right, the drugs don't work. Took 1 Tramedol at 10pm but didn't take any pain away. Took another at midnight and it took the edge off, but then shooting pain every 10-15 minutes made sure I didn't drift off.

I noticed the other day that my old PS3 Slim - HDMI thread had been moved to Games Chat - it makes sense to use the above TABS more ;¬)

Ha ha, nice spot DL. Not really that surprising that Freeola guy's 360 is not working though as it looks like he is trying to use a PS3 controller on it!
My 360 has already had the X-clamp fix done as well as having it's cooling modified. I also wall mounted it on one of those floating shelf things to give it the maximum possible airflow and yet it has still failed. It is a non HDMI launch model and these faults are well known. I suppose all I have really tried to do is reduce the chances of these failures occurring rather than really solve the problem. As Sir Dark Lord Alan Sugar (or whatever the hell his title is these days?) once said ''you can't polish a t**d''. Still the repair and upgrade cost me £15 and it's lasted 2 years so for £7.50 a year it wasn't too bad.
I'm not all that bothered TBH, I'm sure theres people out there with much bigger problems than my broken games console. It's just with Christmas on the way it could have come a better time. Also I've just paid Orange that ridiculous overcharge in exchange to finally be rid of them so if I buy another console I'm going to be uber skint.

I do hope you manage to sort something out. Would hate to think you won't have a console to play come Christmas. At least the slims seem to be far more robust.
As for me, still in some pain but trying to ignore it. Youngest has been playing Just Dance 3 on Kinect and I couldn't join in.
