Anyone own a Dyson cordless vacuum?
I don't think anyone could say they 'need' one, a brush and dustpan does the job, but I am def tempted. The £200 price tag is hefty though....

I use my 3 or 4 Iron mostly for 'recovery' shots out of the rough / trees where you don't want much loft due to overhanging tree's. 1/2 backswing and 1/2 follow through to get a low trajectory ball flight to get back onto the fairway.
Unfortunately i need to use this shot quite a bit due to a bad drive... :-\

Def put a gap wedge in.. i have a 52 deg and a 60deg wedge. I've found the 52 to be one of the most used clubs in my bag..

I know Nicklaus is well qualified to be a' know it all', but I'm glad he's left the commentary box on sky, he was starting to sicken me, always stating the obvious, and comes across abit condescending...

Speith can count himself lucky that these wobbles are coming at the end of his round.. It's damage limitation stuff at the min, get home and get the head showered... Makes for great viewing to be honest.. Tiger v Rory head to head tomorrow... Great stuff.

The difference with Speith is the putting.... His putter is on fire.

Tiger's plane spotted in Augusta. He's prob having a practice round or two to see where his game is at before declaring himself in for next week...

If he does play I think it'll be good from McIlroy point of view, as it'll take a bit of the attention away from him...

what do youse make of this?

This guy Olsen (I'd never even heard of him) is hardly a credible source, but then again it's hardly beyond the realms of possibility.

I'm abit late to this thread, and can't be bothered trawling through 7 pages to see if it has already been answered....

Can the moviebox app or the HD cinema app be used to chromecast to a TV from an Ipad?

Thanks in advance...

Ok, looking for a decent quality camera.

Not overly into photography or that but with the kids growing up now, it be nice to get a decent camera to take snaps and that of them and other stuff. Have a lower priced digital camera from few years back but it takes about 3 secs between pressing botton and picture been taken.

Main key features:

Good zoom
High quality
Instant pictures


I'd be quite clueless in this area, so any help be much appreciated.

I'd hazard a guess that the most of that 3 sec's is writing to your memory card. Cheaper SD card have slow data rate, therefore longer time between pictures.. When you get your new camera, treat yourself to a decent SD card. There are 4 different types in terms of speed ; class 2, 4, 6 and 10. This means a write speed of 2MB/sec, 4MB/sec, 6MB/sec and 10MB/sec respectively.

Heriam - Is there any mention of dwellings on Farms in the new policy? Specifically this nonsense around length of time a farm is established or length of time since it had another site passed?
Are you looking at the draft version on the planning website?
