    Was pondering around thinking how on earth I'm going to connect my z5500s to my system then spotted a optical output on the Virgin box! Sounds great yet to find a solution for the computer to the tv to the computer.

    Also rerouted the installed Virgin cable to the tevo box for cable manage 'not bad' :)

    Cheers everyone - seems from conversations i've had with others it was only me and the music teacher who got an outstanding rating.

    I teach physics but have always made a point of trying to make it accessible to everyone - no matter what ability they have and even if teaching a kid for 5 years from yr 7 to 11 and they only ever really switch on in one lesson - that's my job done!

    Always taken a realistic view of what kids like today - and sadly science/engineering/tech in general is not high on the list, so occasionally i speak in slang/do partial lesson in bro-speak yo - whatever it takes to get them to pay attention

    Does not however make me outstanding every lesson and i'm not going to let one 25 minute observation boost my ego to unreasonable levels, nor would an unsatisfactory rating ruin my life.

    In bad news - school was rated as needs improvement, so life will be hard for a while in terms of planning levels required and visits from inspectors/local authority :wallbash::wallbash:

    Congratulations mate. Whilst I'm not going to say that physics is my favourite science (chemistry Cheesecake), it's definitely key, and sadly doesn't always interest people.

    Also, something that blew my mind: horizontal motion doesn't affect vertical motion. I spent the next 30 mins throwing two pens across my desk.

    Well I didn't die, completed it in pretty much bang on 2 and a half hours as well. Considering I've never ran more than 8 miles continuous I'm pretty chuffed with that. :D

    Now off to pizza hut for victory meal.

    Long story short I've been given the opportunity to strut my funk designing skins for the new NFS. if my samples impress them on Monday then it looks like another contract could be on the horizon.

    As long as it is better than the last two games. I have played both The Run and Most Wanted and they are not worth the money what so ever!

    And surely having NsN on the team has to be an improvement.

    The Fast and The Furious 6.

    I think this might be the apex of filmmaking. Sweet Jesus that was good.
