Yeh I would be loath to pay it as well, but we came back from hols and the box was fubar, so they offered to give me a standard recon box for £79.99 or the sky plus new box for £149. I said don't be silly to the sky plus costs, so the sales guy said, OK I can do it for £99 I said "when are they firring it"!!

I'll make sure we record it and I'll burn them down to dvd. Saves in a microsoft format but if thats an issue I can probobly do proper dvd video. Just get more on a data dvd.

Could I have puffs and crunchy this time?  :roll: </cheeky>

OK - 2 bags of each; we are in saturday, can you get down to the docks to swap them?

THe format doesn't matter really; I can concert it onboard anyway and we can play the DVD in the wardroom while 'testing' a cold beer.

MCE box crashed 20 mins in :( Just as well it was also on the NTL box. Re-recording it Wed so dont worry Davey. PM me what dock gate and when.

Looks like it'll be a good series. Amphibious boats and the R8 next week.

Liked the shots at fifth gear too :)
