Added a simple 'Yes' / 'No' poll to this for a basic idea of what people think.

But not everyone likes to play with linux, even if the distro's come with everything out of the box. I'm sure most people will like to just have something to plug in which is recognised as a media device over the WiFi with no effort to setup at all over having to load an OS on to a memory card. Hell, it would probably take longer for most people to find where to stick the memory card to load the OS than it would for you to get a HTPC up and running.

Is this still eligible if you buy via amazon from a seller? If the parcel is coming from elsewhere wasn't sure how the postage would be worked out.

400mm lens would definitely have been beneficial Was a nice weekend for it, haven't been down for a few years now. Will adhere to get myself over next year.

I was under the impression that the existing building was remaining in the planning application but alas, Malcolm's comment explains all. Reminds me of a popular street artists depiction of our leaders:

Was checking this out yesterday along with the Chromecast which is a very reasonable price and would be quite usable. https://play.google.com/store/devices/details?id=chromecast

Apparently the Ouya is getting raving reviews for a gaming platform but can be sideloaded to run XBMC for a media centre application. Also http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/xbmc-os-on-stealth-nighthawk-f-117a-tvdongle/ From one of the creators of RaspBMC I do believe.

I am not aware of the story but you could have a search of the forums in the top right to see if you can find anything already mentioned or one of our vintage members may be able to help. Welcome to the site too

Welcome to the forum. Best of luck

Seen this on Twitter earlier. Will Share it to the Bedlington.co.uk Facebook too.

On this not particularly, if you receive an email from a trusted source which appears to be SPAM or not legitimate then advise them to change their email password and select a secure password rather than the generic "Password123" "123456789" It's amazing the amount of people that have poor quality passwords which they will more than likely use for every account they possess. Generally the reason you are receiving SPAM emails from trusted sources is that their password has been compromised. Try the below for secure passwords: http://www.pctools.com/guides/password/

All in all I would say that the 'Big Event 2' was a massive success. There were crowds of people with their deck chairs all sitting around with the kids enjoying the rides and the bandstand. The stalls were all excellent and everyone seemed to be thoroughly enjoying themselves. There must have been a lot of effort by everyone involved and it showed by the numbers of people that were there. The weather definitely helped and there are lots of red faces wandering around the streets of Bedlington. Same again next year and going off the success of this years event there should be more stalls and more local businesses involved in the day. Most of all I think the day showed that if enough people work together to achieve one goal instead of all fighting against each other, something extraordinary can be done. Well done all.

Seen this advertised yesterday John.

Welcome to the community Eileen

How many of these are open today?

I have been through and amended the first post made by John with the updates thereafter. If you keep posting in here John with updates I can keep going through and adding them to the first post so that the entire timeline appears in one post but the thread consists of discussion and snippets of relevant dates. Will make for a good reference post that people can revert to for dates/information.

Welcome to the site

Did anyone post 6-1 6-1 6-1 6-1 6-1 6-1 6-1 6-1 6-1 6-1 6-1 6-1 6-1 6-1 6-1 6-1 yet? Looks like this could be going down to the wire as well after Wigan getting a result today and us failing to beat the Hammers. You need to hope that Danny 'the traitor' Graham can perform with Sessegnon's ban being upheld. Stoke will be a tough game for the mackems on Monday night!

You read the rules?

I thought it was silver for full fat, red for skimmed. Orange juice had a bronze/gold top...this may be more recent colours however.
