Got bored this afternoon and ending up pootling around the interesting'ish lanes near me - video'ed the whole lot with my KM-Z5/MonsterPod dash combo now I have 12v-6v convertor to power the camera direct from the 12v aux socket - 700Mb of MOV .... which... I've also just found out plays natively through my Wii
Gonna YouTube them in the next couple of days after I select suitable music tracks. For Innominate - there's a couple of routes on here you might not know which are usefull for avoiding the atrocious traffic round here in the mornings/evenings Steve N | 2006 TDV6 S Auto in Buckingham Blue | Member of the top ten club | Am I online?

fitted the 'new style' ipod integration kit, very straightforward only took about half an hour. Works very well but the only downside is that unlees you have the ipod somewhere visible then you need to know the order of your playlists etc as it doesn't display anything on the head unit, (which I knew already) other than that, it works seamlessly with the steering wheel controls, although I haven't as yet tried the USB or RCA connectors yet. Added a video cable to the back of the nav screen too, all I need now is the apple AV cable.....

Today I drove to Asda. When I was there I saw an Espresso machine for £9.
(nicked from another site).
I've been mourning the loss of my old machine, and was prepared to be underwhelmed...
However it's excellent. Amazing value for money. It's really well engineered, and feels quality and solid. Feels like it's worth many times more. I may push the boat out and buy their toaster now...
Top machine - highly recommended.

Yes - it froths milk, heats milk etc. Very smart.
However, cappucino's for girls
It's also 15Bar (which is essential if you're not a coffee geek - really need at least 9Bar). TDV6 SE Auto, Cairns Blue

This week is gadget week.
Today I drove to Hull to pick up an iPhone 3G.
Think I may have been the first in Hull to get one, which is quite a claim to fame... TDV6 SE Auto, Cairns Blue

Ohhhhhh yes. What a pallava. It's the only way you can get them these days.
The 'system' was down for all O2 stores apparently, but I got mine from CPW and theirs eventually worked after about an hour.
I went to the O2 store at 7am, and there were already a queue of about 40 people, so I went to a smaller CPW store, and I was the first there, so managed to get the only 16GB. TDV6 SE Auto, Cairns Blue
