    Indeed. But BSG S3 definitely isn't out yet (or not on US Amazon anyways). Perhaps the "bought" and "preorder" got swapped here?

    Awesome, have you got a whole rack of FX stuff? If so, I'd love to see it!

    Yeah, the Pod XT looks rather nice, although I'm personally more into seperate analogue fx now...have got a Korg AX1G (one of the best multi-fxs ever) but it's dying.

    As for my recent purchases... http://www.ebuyer.com/product/130925 .

    As for my FX rack, its not really there yet, ive only been playing 2 years so all i've got in rack form is a DTR-1000 and soon to be the pod XT Pro. I cant really think what else i would need right now other than power distribution, but i don't think thats a factor yet until i got 3-4 units installed is it? (btw if u have any rack suggestions u think i could use i'd love to check them out).
    Eventually once i find a nice midi switchable head I can maybe get a nice foot switcher and have it all automatically switching between presets. For now though this should give me lots of tones to play with :)

    hey! Thats awesome, I didn't know there are any other guitar enthusiasts around here :)
    What kinda work you in? sound engineering?

    I bought it out of Xtra Vision so to my knowledge, Blockbuster for the English, so if it is out over here I would like to think the american people would happen to have it. Watched the first 6 episodes so far, it's so cool.

    Large pack of Ibuprofen
    a few stick-on heat patches
    a bunch of hangers
    shoes and various underwears for the mrs

    and what I'm rather excited about...

    Gaggia Classic with:
    6x gaggia espresso cups and saucers
    gaggia shaker and frothing jug
    whole load of gaggia coffee pods (wouldn't normally do pods, but they came with it)
    little gaggia branded box for storing all of the bits from the machine (spare baskets, scoops etc)
    Gaggia Barista training CD xD

    If anyone is in to their espresso and doedn't already have a decent machine, I'd highly reccommend popping to House of Fraser - £200 for all that lot. The Classic is a £400 MSRP (or around £300 online) machine, and thats without all the extra bits and bobs which would work out to around £60 seperately. Theres an extra 10% off as well if you have a Fraser card. Complete winner.

    A signed limited edition framed print by a pilot my Dad knew of a GR7 flying over Burghley House. Won in at a silent auction for £44!
    Also got a chinese Ginger Jar for a tenner.

    The mrs got an all-weather coat with zipped fleece jacket inside for a tenner, together with a him and her wedding teddy bears, a doll and a picnic tray. It was all for charity and they raised something around £1500! Damned impressive for about 3 hours 'work'.

    All this stuff arrived today. 12.1" laptops are so cute! Installed vista in 30mins after spending an hour sorting out partitions.

    Nice box from Royal Mail/Play Asia, not played PGR4 yet because of HL2E2. I had the pork chowder noodle for lunch though.

    What is Pork Chowder? Tasted like nice quorn.

    Love the headphones, new laptop doesn't have PCMCIA, not had a chance to install the HDD yet to my tower.

    Can anyone reccomend a good PCIExpress WiFi card? And a 12.1" sleeve? Not looking for a carry case.
