Due to a back injury i can do very little exercise at all. Therefore as of last summer i was 6'2" and 19.5st, with no ability to lose it through exercise. I then stumbled across a diet called 'Keto', which is i guess similar to the atkins diet in that it is a no carb/no sugar diet. I read a lot about this and saw sooo many peoples progress pics and success stories, i thought id give it a try. I promptly lost over 2 stone in less than 2 months, whilst eating some awesome food! Known affectionately as 'The Bacon Diet', Keto's principle is that you must eat a 60% Protein, 40% Fat diet - hence bacon is one of the healthiest foods you can eat! You're not allowed to have too many vegetables either as these can contain carbs (broccolli, parsnips etc). The science behind the diet makes sense - your body can either use Sugar, or Fat as it's energy source. Sugar is metabolised very quickly, and only takes 4 calories of effort to metabolise 1 gram. The energy earned from this is then quickly used up, leaving you with sugary cravings all through the day - hence why people snack on junk food constantly. Conversely if Fat is used as the body's sole energy source, this is a much cleaner fuel. It takes longer to metabolise and uses 9 calories of effort to metabolise 1 gram. As a result there are no blood sugar spikes which cause cravings, so you feel fuller for longer. I took december off the keto diet so i could eat crap food for the holidays, and i put 1st back on, but i've been on Keto for a week and already i've lost most of that again. I love it. Seriously, if you do 1 thing today, read some of the posts on the forum below. Look at peoples progress pictures, and look at some of the awesome food you get to eat (i have bacon and eggs every morning! http://www.reddit.com/r/keto/

Yep, way over priced anyway. Another business that failed to compete with the online guys. http://www.jessops.c...86026/show.html http://www.digitalre.../MTAwMDkzNw_A_A +1, its impossible to compete, and why should anybody pay over the odds for something?

So old.....

Doesnt say it was a competition win, but i thought id read that somewhere once...

Didnt Zedmanalex or someone similar (Big Phil?) have the original Need for Speed Underground 350z from a competition? Im going to search now....

I think the only consoles i've never personally owned were a NES, a Saturn, and a 3DO. And thats cos my friends had those. I sold the majority of my collection years ago but still have my N64. I think the SNES and N64 have been my favourites. And yes - Goldeneye is undoubtedly the greatest game ever. I played it on 3 player on Stack, License to Kill with Automatics mostly. Nowadays though i go down the emulation route for my retro needs... hence the arcade machine which i built myself from scratch about 4 years ago. I play it every now and then but it mostly serves to entertain my nieces and nephews when they visit.

The acrobatic guys on the subway at 16:45 - i saw them several times in New York when i went in 2011, they're street buskers. Their catch phrase was 'If yo man caint do.... leave him' and they say it in this.

Great choice - congrats Jim.

Where are they both...?

Had my current zed 2 years, and the zed before that just under 3 years. Its a combination of the car being great to own/drive, and this forum too which keeps me interested. I'll be keeping mine indefinitely.

Given the reg plate and the obvious money spent, i reckon it was built by one of the Millionaire Boy Racers from Channel 4 in the week.

Did someone say Avatar Boobs...?

I've asked the question on Reddit/r/pokemon and it's not looking good. If these cant answer it then no one can. http://www.reddit.co...hatwho_this_is/

I've got one of these: http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/belkin-bluetooth-music-receiver-15-75-delivered-amazon-gomemory-1032475 I paid about £18 for it last year. Just got a standard 3.5mm jack socket on it to plug it into a set of speakers or into a stereo's AUX port. Any device with bluetooth can then connect to it in seconds and it plays all sound via your speakers then. Great for playing music from the iPad or my phone. For £18 the quality is to be expected... i'd say its 7 or 8 out of 10, but as a cheap solution its totally worth it. However if you're a connoisseur you will want something with better quality (the treble via bluetooth seems to high).

Get an LED one. I think i paid a tenner for a pair from Halfords, but you can get them for a couple of quid off ebay.

Fixed it for you.

Who's the dude in the money shot? Looks like its your conscience storming off...!

Just watched this on 4od... good shout Col!

Is that what you think was on it? or what I should use? Thinking about it, it did look like a type of thin tape but seeing as the car is 7 years old (today in fact) I guess it would have set rock hard by now. Cheers, Pete Either or... i cant think of any semi-permanent bonds other than tape so would have imagined this is what they have used... and you can safely use it again in. If you need to get it off, you'll need to get some bug and tar remover or similar and scrape it off with your nail... or just tape straight over it.

padded numberplate tape.
