    Question Use Your Illusion I or Use Your Illusion II?

    Drunken conversation between a mate and I the other day ended up with us arguing the merits of the two Guns N' Roses albums that came out back in 1991. My friend was very much in the 'II' camp (features "You Could Be Mine" and he's a huge fan of "Civil War"), whilst I much prefer 'I' (the better...

    Best looking football trophy

    I was thinking about the World Cup this morning and how that lovely little trophy will go in to hiding should (heaven forbid) Italy, Brazil, Germany or Argentina win in South Africa next month. So obviously the FIFA Trophy is up there as one of the finest looking football trophies ever, as is...

    The Greatest Show on Earth

    The ITV adverstising for the forthcoming World Cup is saying it's the greatest show on earth. As the World Cup only features 32 Nations I say not and IMO as a sporting spectacle it's the Olympics. So a simple poll World Cup, the Olympics or Tilly palying a round of golf at Belfairs?

    Slot Machines Online

    Anyone got into these. Noticed they are a big deal in the shops at the moment with the popularity definitely on the increase to my untrained eye!

    Tron Legacy

    As a kid, I remember this weird video 'Tron' in the corner of the local rental store. I watched it, didn't really get it or like it as a ten year old, and that was that. Except that it wasn't it. For some unknown reason, I found myself repeatedly hiring it out, over and over. Then I found...
