I'm watching extreme railroads on C4, has anyone heard about that Japanese train the Maglev, that goes at over 600km/hr that floats above the track and uses magnetic force to move?

I knew there were female members...I also knew about Ann summers.... I we may have passed it once or 68 times

I think it's German? I visited the test track in Bremen, they installed the first one in China. Japan has the Bullets though, they're a pretty serious operation.

Didn't see this program but a maglev train in Japan recently broke the world record for fastest train.

Does Ann Summers really constitute as a sex shop?

Back in my day, you know when men were men, you could tell how serious a sex shop was with how elaborate your disguise was when leaving the shop.

Ann Summers, pfft... They don't even black out the windows!!

Getting a new tv this week, any recommendations? Not into gaming so just general tv and maybe streaming if I can work out how. No idea what to look for!

She's the one wants a new tv so she can follow the ball in sports games (I'm marrying a keeper, even if she has bad eyesight) but I think she'll draw the line at 35k for a tv

Cool then you have a €0-34,999 budget.

Tell her the ball will look massive on a 98 inch TV.

On a more serious note I bought one of these back in March and it's great: https://euro.richersounds.ie/p-200553-viera-tx50as650b.aspx

You should use the RicherSounds Talk To forum on boards. Just start a thread and tell them what you want and they'll get you sorted. Top class customer service. I ordered mine on a Friday afternoon and asked if they could deliver it the next day and they said they had a guy who had to go to Dublin on the Saturday for something and they'd get him to drop it off.

Synode · 17-07-2015 12:13PM

Unbelievable how cheap TVs are these days compared to 10 years ago. This looks decent

That's a really good price for that. Viera range is excellent also, consistently winning awards and I never had any issues with them in terms of returns or problems when I sold them.

I bought a 46" LED 1080HD TV on Richer sounds back in January for £300 (STG). I was initially wary because it was so cheap but I love it.

I bought a 40" LCD Samsung TV for £1,000 in 2009. The same TV is about £300 now. I can't wait until a decent 55" 4K TV falls in price a bit.

Anyone know if the RWC is being broadcast in 4K? I know BT are starting to show some of the Champions League in 4K next season. Maybe they will start showing the Champions Cup in 4K soon as well.

Thank you! I was confused as to why the first replies weren't making more of a deal of this!

That's not a kid's birthday party....that's a small wedding!

Good luck, MFC. You'll need it.

17-07-2015 01:35PM

I assume most of them are the kids that mfceiling knows from the road? You know, the kids that knock in for him?

We are gathered here today, to mourn the passing of mfceiling's house.

Ha! I worked for a Panasonic dealership many years ago and a new TV was brought into the Irish market, we were brought to Dublin, to Panasonics base, shown the TV, then we watched Terminator 2 with the speakers on and we went home singing its praises, I don't remember the name, but it translated as "king of tvs" ..it was a 28" widescreen and retailed at £1500..madness by today's standards

We just found out we're having twins and that number made me break out in a rash. I'd be thinking two of them can have 10 friends each. And their parents will count as two of them.

If their mother ever tries to arrange a party like that there's be a long weekend in London booked for me and me alone to coincide with it!
