    Got one of those one's in Aldi (or was it Lidl) for €159 or something there recently. Totally pointless purchase as we only use 2 tvs in the house and now we have 3:confused: I won't change from my dinosaur sized 38" as I have freeview channels tuned in with a sat dish and I am not doing that again! And the other one is in the kitchen, reserved for all the soaps and the news 3 times a day......oh and farming weather on sundays.
    Why not this one http://www.panasonicstore.ie/products.html/tv/plasma-tv-/tx-p42x60-600hz-viera-tv

    :D Actually currys have some good deals on at the moment. As do tesco, surprisingly enough. Oh and I found my cheque that went AWOL, pity I had cancelled it!

    I know people who went broke from buying bargains:D

    I didn't buy it! Could put it in my bedroom but that has enough crap in it. Plus I prefer reading to tv (:eek:) so that's a bit of a non starter anyway.

    I understand that it was all to do with tractor thefts and impending court cases.

    we sure, average land around here going for 10k, good land 12 - 14k. I have a feeling there maybe cheap land to be bought in a few years. Not cheap enough for me to buy though

    Something to do with money being owed I heard, I haven't heard anything for definite yet though. And yes, they managed to free themselves and go for help.
