Astoria,Dublin,Reading 06,Wembley 07,Sheapards Bush & o2 09 thats multiple Jamgasms!
Can anyone advise on notebooks (or laptops small in size)? Would like to get one for G. Must be highly portable but still powerful. She would need to run applications such as Photoshop CS4 and other graphics programs, including animation (plus all the 'normal' stuff), in Windows 7. Also needs a DVD drive. Oh.. and not too expensive! Actually, the cheaper, the better! Looked at gaming notebooks but they are e x p e n s i v e!!!!!
jrd... oooOOooo ..... white stuff - and still falling. But not enough for a duvet day, I'm afraid. Just enough to cause a bit of chaos.
enforced day off yesterday, well half a day to be exact...
tried to get in to work but train stopped at Norbiton and sat there...and sat there...and then we're told that they didn't know when it would be going because of "slippery railroads" and also because "we're in a queue of trains that's backed up all the way from Waterloo". Waterloo was full of trains but they had no drivers because they were all stuck on the trains queuing up to get in to Waterloo...
at this point, about 2 hours into my journey to London i gave up, got off the train (luckily we were in a station rather than stuck inbetween), got a bus to Kingston, did an hour of Christmas shopping and got the bus home.
am in work today :(
Oh yeah? Well, I've had about enough of morons and halfwits, dolts, dunces, dullards and dumbbells - and you chowderhead yokel, you blithering hayseed, you - you've had enough of me?

dunno much about laptops so hope someone on t'other thread has helped :roll:
reckon you want something with at least an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, or a newer Core i3 or i5, a minimum of 4GB of memory and 250Gb or bigger hard drive.
that rules out the 10" netbooks, and they don't have DVD drives either so i guess something with 12" or 13" screen if you want to keep the weight down.
after that it's just a case of finding something you like the look of, there should be plenty of choice (maybe too much?).
Acer do some decent enough stuff, or Samsung, Dell, Toshiba... saw an advert for some Sony ones in the Metro today but didn't really look at it very closely, but you usually pay for the Sony name.
Find something you like and then see if John Lewis stock it and will match the price because you might get a better warranty from JL...
just my 2p worth. :ugeek:

Sunday evening... just sitting in the kitchen having a beer, listening to Planet Rock while the pie and mash cooks...

Monday already here :( Managed to spends LOADS of money that I don't have without leaving the house. Online shopping make things that little bit too easy!
"Don't be faint-hearted, I have a solution! We shall go and commandeer some small craft, then drift at leisure until we happen upon another ideal place for our waterside supper with riparian entertainments."
Today feels like a Monday since yesterday was a holiday..

Daughter will be back at school today (I hope!), after being ill for a couple of days. As she likes sharing, she shared her lurgies with me and I'm feeling like crap!
Headin to LA end of Jan, the premiere is on lil bro's 30th!;)
hope he's paying for you to fly non-cattle class!

Hope you guys have a great time and maybe we will be seeing you at the London premiere (to which we will be invited, of course)!!!!!
of course we will! and we'll all be picked up by an enormous limo with crates of champers in the back...
alternatively, what was that little speech that Al gave us to get by the security guards...? :roll:

Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...
... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.
fine 'n' dandy and looking forward to 11 days off over Christmas and New Year!

Been at home today feeling REALLY grotty. Feeling better this evening. Last of the pressies ordered, important one shipped (electric guitar for G)!!!!
bought one pressie, only two left to get...
remember, when G's rich and famous with her band we want guaranteed free tickets (and probably zimmer frame or wheelchair access)! :twisted:

jrd... when she is famous, we will all have VIP access! My neighbour asked me if I considered getting her headphones to plug into her amp :roll:
you should have said yes but decided to spend the money on a drum kit instead...
