I bet it's mostly 1 bite meals, and that shite.
As for the 1tb HDD, I'd advise looking at an external, as they're so much cheaper now.

But I want it internal in my MBP.

A bit like how people rent out limos for their 16th birthday down to the local greek taverna, where mum tells the staff it's for an 18th birthday.

Although a friend of mine had her 18th when many of us there weren't 18 (myself included), and the bar staff were superb. They had one woman checking ID's, if you didn't have one, you were subtley informed to go back when she wasn't there, and you'd get served. It was ace.

.... and the most borring meal of grilled meat and salad, and whole thing feels like "organised fun".

I always stay out of those things, it's always obvious I don't give a flying fuck about it.
The theme was "Around The World", we had french, american, mexican, etc etc. The winner was a lad who turned up in a Sumo Suit, genius!

I think Butlins is more refind.
The actual 18th birthday with the limo up to Tiger Tiger isn't quite as bad, but not to far off it.

I was one of the only 18 year olds, so we couldn't go anywhere. I'd also worked a 12 hour shift that day, and just wanted to sleep, ended up going home at 11pm.
My 21st was AWESOME! Did pub golf with friends, fell into bed at about 4:30am, woke up with no hangover, woo!

Go at lunch time and eat off a Prix fixed menu and you can get some for like £25ish a head, wine or eating in the evening will make it much more expensive.

As their returns policy, and customer service are some of the best I've seen anywhere
( , Mon 26 Jul 2010, 11:58, Reply)

it's never that much and their delivery charges are resonable.
( , Mon 26 Jul 2010, 12:01, Reply)

Plus, I do like their "Super Saver" delivery, as it's meant to take 5-7 days, while the longest I've ever waited on it is 4 days. Once got it next day too!
( , Mon 26 Jul 2010, 12:03, Reply)

basically means they put it on a van that is going nearby within 5-7 days.

Wiggy's uncle used to work for Marco Pierre White so we were supposed to be going there, but then he left, so now we can't, sad face.
I want to go in a hot air balloon and I want to learn how to sail, so I need to save for them too, but this Australia trip is going to be the main one for now.

And a scuba trip, maybe the maldives if that isn't fucked.
( , Mon 26 Jul 2010, 11:54, Reply)

don't do it!
But yes to scuba diving, that's on my list. You should make a list and we can compare the two, see if we can save money :D
( , Mon 26 Jul 2010, 12:10, Reply)

As is scuba diving, I loved them both.

My favorite place, which I presume is fucked now, was Cusimal in Mexico.

... and in the summer hires a boat and runs dive-schools in egypt/israel/where-ever he fancies that year.
I don't normally think to myself "He's got a whicked life, I'd love to do what he does", but he's one of them.

there's a 5 day excursion available in Australia to do my PADI so I'm going to see if I can save up extra to include that. Seeing the Great Barrier Reef is on my must-see list for Aus anyway so it would be cool to get my qualification at the same time.
