  1. ASUS have a two year warranty with their monitors BeestonMick.

    We have some Asus monitors at work, they are pretty damn good. I reckon the Samsung monitors have two years on 'em now as well. The thing is, they're so cheap now if you get five years out of 'em and they fail you just buy a new one. My two were around £110 each. Considering I paid the best part of £1000 for a Sony Trinitron monitor at one time (bleddy huge thing for a 17" screen) I think they are now VFM.

  2. Big Wes, from the US, is a massive Forest supporter that frequents Twitter. He became interested in Florest when some Twitter users mistook him for Wes Morgan because of his Twitter nic @bigwes.

    He spent some time over here last year going to games etc, and loved it so much he now gets homesick for Nottingham.

  3. Samsung seems to be the way to go at the moment, their gear is excellent. Also, if I'm buying computer bits such as fixed disks I always go for Samsung if I can. I have two Samsung monitors on my home PC, excellent quality and long lasting.

  4. I had a colleague, also from Nottingham originally as it happens, same age etc, working with me in Llantrisant. He was also a died in the wool collar and tie man and he couldn't explain why when I asked him 'cos nowt in my life as a kid, maybe the odd wedding, required collar and tie. He had been a service engineer for a forklift company for many years so no tie there. I did eventually get him in to 'workwear' but he still insisted wearing a collar and tie. Horses and courses I suppose.

    I don't think a new write would do, we'd end up with something from X-factor.

    For some reason the English aren't allowed to be patriotic. By law you can't hang a George flag outside your house in England, but I can in Wales, go anywhere else and there's flags all over the place. It's about time the English said "screw you we are English"

  6. I can't forgive him for making that horrible campy dancing in the street video with Jagger. The British music industry has a good reputation around the world and then they produce garbage like that. It was voted as the most embarrassing video at one time.
