    Err,.. Snow!

    Was in N.Wales this week, and we had some snow! Needed coal for the fire so we took a trip to Bala, just 4 miles down the road. Rather than just go back and light a fire we decided to have a little mooch up the hills towards DINAS. Err, by the time I realised we should stop the car and go back...

    LCD techie help

    Got myself a 32" LCD tv, it's driving me mad: the screen is blurred and jumpy when there is any kind of movement. The response time is 16.5 ms. I reckoned this was about average for £500. What can I do? Complain to the manufacturer? Or am I to expect this with such a response time? Cheers...

    awful radio reception

    Just a quick update: (BrianR was pretty much on the money) Today I yanked the headlining out and removed the aerial base from roof, scraped and polished contact surfaces and refitted. Job's a good'n'. Pain of a job, but worth it.
