THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

found this review site. http://www.dooyoo.co.uk/internet-sites/lovefilm-com/1341249/

One thing that bothers me is that one reviewer said he had trouble playing the DVD's because they paste a paper lovefilm.com sticker on the DVD. my player says that these shouldn't be played.

Do they have their name pasted on ?

when my grandpa recovered from his beach ordeal he found he was on a desert island.
well, all that is, apart from the cannonballs who lived there.
he was there for 3 new moons, in darkness, and 3 full moons in light, before he came across them.well,he told me, he didnt have a watch with him so how else could he tell the time or record the days? i never thought of that before.
and then he saw them.the cannonballs.or rather they saw and found him for they already had the pot boiling.
to be continued

This is a better website

http://www.lovefilmreview.com/


It show's a DVD and the label is only small , so no problem, that other site i posted must be outdated as the label was covering all the disc

cannonballs are not alive , they are round iron ball's fired from a cannon. Your grandpa must have been still in shock from his ordeal.

jkd - 31 Jan 2011 21:14 - 10607 of 81564

yeah
but i was just a kid, sounded like cannonballs to me at the time.
or have you forgotten?
i didnt know he meant cannibal until i got older.spoilsport.

aldwick, I had a limited number of DVDs on a fee that was paid by a relative, you got a certain number of DVDs for a fixed fee. Anyway I had a couple of DVDs for over a year before I remembered about them, sent them in and in the next post there's the next one I'd ordered and forgotten about!!

There were no reminders to send the films back, but if I'd been paying a monthly fee I'd have got them back quickly.

Old technology finds role in Egyptian protests

Fax machines, HAM RADIO and dial-up modems are helping to avoid the net block imposed on Egypt.

Seymour

Just imagine how much you would have to pay if they were library book's

Frampton - 01 Feb 2011 09:33 - 10611 of 81564

Aldwickk,
I haven't had a problem with the love film label, the discs are just very badly scratched most of the time.We watch a lot of old classics, so maybe that has something to do with it. On the few occassions we have had films shortly after they have been released to DVD, they look in good condition and we have had no problem playing them. We are going to cancel our sub once all credits have been used up since we have recieved so many faulty discs. Interesting to hear your story Seymour, as I did wonder how long you could keep them before they started asking for them back. We've sometimes forgotten about them for a month or two.

Due to a water shortage in Ireland , Dublin swimming baths have announced they are closing lanes 7 and 8.

Thank you for your understanding.

Thought I would chance a visit as the name F**d (can't bring myself to spoil it by putting the name in full) appears to be absent.
Read this morning that Pfizer are closing their 'Viagra' research facility in Kent.
A union spokesman said they should expect stiff opposition.
A company spokesman said that it was a hard decision.

Beautiful, Naked Women!

I think the reason that F**d is absent is that when he post's people don't reply to his post , but simply just change the subject.

greekman - 02 Feb 2011 13:02 - 10616 of 81564

Fully agree.

Fred1new - 03 Feb 2011 09:15 - 10617 of 81564

Perhaps, he is not interested in those trapped in the Anal Retentive phase of development.

greekman - 03 Feb 2011 09:50 - 10618 of 81564

Edit....Sorry wrong Thread.

Haystack:

When Skype fell over a couple of weeks back and cut off most of the world from its free VoIP, I tweeted "That's it, if Twitter goes as well, I'm warming up the Ham Radio".

Prescient or what.

Lovefilm.com

They sent me the DVD i chose the next day. it was Rocky 6 so not all that new, it had a small scratch on it and it stopped playing 3 times twice in one frame at a time for 30 seconds and stopped completely for 1 minute. But it did not spoil the viewing.

Next one is 2012 the film that is, not when they will post it..... lol
