    You don't know mystery meat till you've eaten at gregs, this is Scotland where offal in sheep intestine with some oats is (rightly) considered a mighty fine meal :hehe: :D

    Love it, had one's where the haggis was killed in Scotland so should have been a proper one, but i'd like to come up there and have a real one.

    edit, greggs, warm sausage rolls or sausage and bean melt. mmmmm

    "Och, ya know what this boiled egg needs? Meat and batter!"

    Scotch eggs, can't beat 'em. Well, you can; get a sausage, wrap it in kebab meat and batter, then deep fry it.

    Oh, and I've had a deep fried, battered haggis pizza before. You haven't seen fine dining until you've eaten at a Scottish chippy.

    Null, I'm jealous of you right now. A MBP (I want the 15" but if someone threw your 13 at me I'd catch it and run) and now a 24" iMac as well? JEALOUS MUCH?!

    Enjoy 'em matey, you just bought two of the most awesome objects on the planet!

    I swear on all that I own, I am going to own a 15" MBP and a 30" cinema screen to run it on when I'm at the office by the end of this year ;)

    "Meat byproducts" or "MRM" (mechanically recovered meat) often refers to the bits of meat removed from the carcasses/staff boots/slaughterhouse floor by jetwashing.[​IMG]

    A couple of items arrived this morning...

    [​IMG]

    I stupidly flicked the flat's master power switch to change a fuse wire the other day with my main C2D E8500-based computer turned on and caused it to lock up for several seconds on a semi-regular basis (no, I don't have a UPS; yes I use a surge protector). On the up-side, it gave me an excuse to build a new, i7-920 machine, keeping the original one as a secondary rig (to be used for redundancy, testing, first tentative steps at overclocking, internetting and reading manuals etc. while gaming/flight-simming, and anything else I might think of ;)).

    The PSU is one I already had laying around after some previous trouble-shooting, and the graphics card is to be used in the secondary rig (I'll keep my HD4870X2 for the new build. The plan is to get it up and running fairly quickly, and after having a go at overclocking on the other machine, get into that and then eventually water-cool it.

    Gonna have a good day tomorrow! :dremel:

    This thread is for purchases people! (Besides, replica stuff like that is a bit sad, don't you think?)
