    Snooker

    Sorry Nishy but I don't know exactly how much the tickets were. They were a present from Mrs PC which she bought a year ago and can't remember the cost. They go on sale Monday for next year so worth checking out. I'm just watching the semi with Trump and Bingham. It's great stuff, down to the...

    Snooker

    I went to the Crucible yesterday to watch the afternoon session. McGill v Murphy conclusion - what amazing play. Then, when they had finished the screen went up and we saw a frame between Ronnie and Bingham, also fab. It was the first time I'd seen a professional match let-alone one at the...

    Nutri bullet

    Sounds delicious! Instead of water I'd have thought you could use ice cubes. I normally blend three or four in otherwise the smoothie is too thick, and because it's ice not water it keeps things nice and cool. :cool:

    Nutri bullet

    I don't have a Nutribullet but do use a juicer and blender every morning. You can't juice or blend a mango stone, but as an alternative to fresh mango I'm sure frozen mango could be used. It's available in most supermarkets. For a sweet smoothie I'd juice some apple and citrus fruit then blend...

    Banks!

    Santander have allocated me a slimy personal banker who keeps trying to force insurance and other things on to me. That said, I'm willing to forgive them because their 123 account and credit card has earned me a tidy sum over the last three years. :icon_razz:

    Sci-fi books you must read....

    The State Of The Art is a very good collection of short stories by Iain M Banks.

    On that note.....

    A fresh turd and a hat walk into a bar. The barman points at them saying, "I'm not serving you, and I'm not serving you!" "But why?" they ask. "Well you're steaming and you're off your head!"

    Grandstand or World of Sport

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLHMxFGqhIs Grandstand is great. Love the way it rocks out in the middle section, and that kettle drum going boing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmqU0I1LzQA I can't recall World of Sport at all. I was born in '74 so perhaps it was a bit before my time...

    What are you reading at the moment?

    The Scar by China Mieville also Thinking About It Only Makes It Worse by David Mitchell (very enjoyable read which has made me question my view of the Royal Family among other things)

    Online storage/backup

    I use Mozy and it's always been very good. It's seen me through a couple of PC changes and if I accidentally delete a file or make a bad change then I can download it from the backup in moments. Might be a little pricey for your needs but worth a look.

    Toothbrushes/Dental Care

    Flossing is for your gums, it won't prevent fillings which are mainly caused by sugar in diet. It might not have saved your fillings but possibly stopped your teeth falling out. :icon_razz:

    Toothbrushes/Dental Care

    Any small-headed toothbrush if your brushing technique is good, but get a decent electric if you want to make it easier. Use a good floss, I've found that the cheap ones are really hard to get between teeth. Oral B Essential for example is fine, but the supermarket own-brands are crap. Ask your...

    Scouting

    I'm sure that most parents are appreciative of the amount their kids get out of scouting, and of the time and hard work the leaders/helpers put in. A small minority do seem to use it as another babysitter though, from what I can tell. And yes, there are not enough groups around these days...

    Scouting

    My older son was a beaver and is now a cub. He gets so much out of it and I try to show my appreciation to the leaders as much as possible.

    Bean to cup coffee machine recommendations

    I have had my De'Longhi Magnifica for three years now and it's been brilliant. I'm not in to espresso but love latte/flat white type coffee so for me it's perfect. I'm always getting compliments on the coffee I make (inc. Americano) so can't recommend it enough if the budget isn't too low. They...
