so it was the bank holiday weekend…. looking at the weather it was going to be quite good… hard to imagine as 4 days earlier it was cold and raining… it was actually warm this weekend so quite a bonus for the bank holiday.

Anyway on Sat I went to have dinner with Michael and Norval…. not seen them for almost 2 years… went Pizza express… quite nice catching up on the old times…

Went to All Bar one… was meant to be a quiet drink but ended up as a wine drinking session… the other group of people (mostly australian) who were sitting at the same table started talking to us and it turned into a dicussion about what wine tasted better… and we all started sharing wines… at the end of it I was really pissed… I was throwing up along the way home… I’m never gonna drink like that again…

Even though i was quite pissed i managed to get my cam out to film you some handy advice.

Even with no money… (after paying back £500 to the banks) I felt really upset… so i decided to get my credit card out and purchased a 32 inch TV.

For £280 it was a bargin… the picture quality is comparable to a mid range TV … contrast ratio of 1200 : 1 and HD ready it was value for money… dixon are selling a simular spec tv for £499.

I decided on getting this TV cos of the review on dabs.com as many people were mentioning that the quality of this tv was amazing… and it is… the budget ones at curry’s which sell for £400 are crap… this one selling for £280 was alot better in spec and quality.
