Tink has learned a valuable lesson ~ do not buy electronic toys unless you have a six year old on hand to show you how to work them properly.  whistle:

But this is just all off topic nonsense.  whistle:


How are you getting on with the PSP Tink?

Thanks for the links...I think!!!...........sorry, had a call from daughter and super, super baby grandson...now we can talk AND see ooe another on skype, time just flies!!!!! ;)

Sounds like I won't bother getting the lead...which is OK, 'cause then I can try to watch TV  ('try' 'cause we're right on the edge of Sky signal and in the evenings it's usually cr*p) whistle:
Perhaps the Wii would be good for Christmas?????  noooo:

Very sound advice Snoops. Mr T landed in Uk yesterday at 9.45am, by 11 am was back in the 'bolt hole' with sons 2 & 3 who did the 'collection' run!!!! At 12.00 I get a call....'what's the combination on dad's suitcase?' ... they wanted the instruction book!!! 3 games of cricket had been completed, son no 3 pretty useless, I hear... son no 2 made a better job!!! Why bother with instructions?????  whistle:

And why lock the case??? whistle:


Men cannot cope without us, ladies!!! Now I have proof (and a phone bill)  noooo:

Do you reckon this will be the christmas gift of the year and therefore in short supply...and therefore silly people will pay hundreds over the odds.??? whistle:

Daughter -in -law who works at Argos says they sell literally before they get on the shelves...but she's waiting for the Jan sales, when you can bet your life stocks will miraculously appear.   ;D

Hey...we could start a rumour and create havoc in the market!!!!  ::)

I honestly believe that if you want on in time for Christmas if you see it, buy it now. They are a complete nightmare to get hold of and I'm not convinced there will be any in the sales in January simply because they will be snapped up. It's been like this since they were released.

I know friends in the States are saying that they are still in short supply over there. They get delivered on a Saturday morning and they are well gone by Monday.

That's what I thought but it didn't show as a link when I tried. Guess it converts when you hit 'post'???   confused:

I won't touch these sort of products until they have been out long enough for the defects to be exposed.

It does. The linky line only comes up after you've submitted it.




With the bugs, I know enough people who have had them since they came out to be convinced that they are pretty clear at the moment.

Be warned my children ~ better things will be along just as your warranty runs out.
Go for a walk in Kew Gardens Wenchy ~ it'll do you more good and not cost anything like as much.
