    is doing the final testing on the new Market software and I'm pleased to say it's working a lot better than the existing!

    wonders if garden shredders are the most useless performing appliance since the days of Ronco and K-Tel??

      My garden shredder doesn't sing very well, but you should hear the jokes it can tell.

      Mine's jammed. Quite the most useless bit of kit that I've ever owned. Particularly now as I can put all my garden rubbish in the brown bin.

      I looked at one but my brown bin is much cheaper, quieter and easier to use!

      Although we don't have the details of who or what as upset the boss, I can completely sympathise, I have voluntary stuck my neck out and got bit in the past.

    Every weekday morning an idiot sits in a library in Gateshead casting bizarre biased votes in the MotY poll. They will be sadly deflated when the results are announced to find they're not as clever as they thought they were.

    can't quite believe there are Youtube videos showing how to take locos out of boxes? is this what the hobby and the wonders of technology has brought us to?

      Is there a video showing you how to work a Youtube video? No hang on, that wouldn't work.....

      There are boxes designed to give the model total protection all the way to when you open them whereupon they try to act like a jack-in- the-boxes determined to hurl the model at the ground.

    4. percomotion

      percomotion

      I cannot believe the amount of people watch them do it.So they have watched the video realised they have taken there own loco out of the box differently to that shown on youtube put it back in the box and done it as described on youtube.It must be rocket science.

      Nice a "Room 101" area where pointless and cyclical threads go to die. I like it. Can I nominate the Stove R thread as a first entry?

    Can we have some Xmas music she says? Having waded through four figures of naffness I managed to find the sum total of 5 tracks that I didn't detest the level of naffness or were suitable for playing over a family Xmas lunch. ;)
