The one I had definately said existing customers who renew their account. I let my subscription end as wasn't playing and needed money for other things. Thinking though for this cheap worth getting back into it for 3 months.

I am with Boothy about the commentary team, I enjoyed it and it was like 2 fans talking about a race as it happened. 100% improvement over leggard and I am sure Coulthard will get more comfortable chatting during the race.

Overall the race was alright, nothing amazing happened but was the procession that some of the new tracks are.

Roll on two weeks.

You have to laugh when the parodies are better than the original of songs.

I like Hamilton (and Button) being at McLaren as means can support them all in on big lump but I don't think anyone would blame him for leaving if he does. Though in saying that things can turn around quickly in F1 so there isn't any reason McLaren couldn't be a dog this year and 0.5 secs a lap quicker than everyone next year.

Quote from Sueycide_FD :I cant believe some of you buying into natural disasters happen because of over population. The shit happens because mother nature is on her period. If you going to go with that opinion then you minds well support the nazi genocide...

I admit to only having quick read this thread but I didn't see anyone post that. I think what was trying to be said was not that over population causes natural disasters but it is over population that causes the death toll to be so high when a natural disaster happens.

There is some scary videos that people have recorded from the airport of from the roof tops of buildings of the tsunami. It is nigh on impossible to imagine what it is like there now. Read the whole thread on driftworks as there are people in Japan, they are having so many quakes and aftershocks all the time.

Thoughts go out to anyone who has been affected by all of this.

Chosen the easy option. I couldn't find any earphones that fitted the bill that are better than the broken ones so ordered some of the same (Sony MDR-AS50G). At least I know I wont have fitting problems

Thanks for the tips, it seems to be swings or roundabouts here. I use different earphones for work and gym but last pair of work ones the clip never fell off but the earphones fell out, current pair the opposite. The earphones are fine but the clip falls off and then pulls both earphones out. Oh well, looking at some Philips SHQ4000/10 now, reviews seem to be good for the earphones but a bit lacking in sound.

Quote from spookthehamster :I only have IEMs, which are terrible at the gym because they fall out on the treadmill.

Thats the trouble I have hence wanting a neck band to hold them in place.

Quote from Crashgate3 :I use Sony MDR-AS30s for cycling - they're over-the-ear-with-a-neckband ones.

Hmmm a possibility, will look up some reviews to see what people think of them. Though I notice they have the plug in the middle which annoys me most about the earphones I use normally.

Anyone else got any ideas? Seems few and far between

Hi all

I am looking for some earphones to use at the gym as the last pair I accidently stepped on Preferably looking for some in ear phones with a neckband or bits to clip over each ear. Obviously I am after decent sound quality but nothing spectacular and I have a budget of around £40 - £50 for some though preferably cheaper if possible.

I was looking at some Sennheiser PMX80's which are quite cheap but reading some reviews people complained about them being uncomfortable in your ears so back to step one.

Anyone got any recommendations for some? Any help greatly appreciated, thanks.

The problem with this is that to calculate an insurance claim to the best price has to be based on things like age, gender, crime rates etc, where the car is parked. Yes in a perfect utopian world everyone would have cheap insurance until they have a claim and then it goes up as their risk is higher but that isn't the world we live in.

The insurance companies gamble with insurance, how likely is someone to crash and how much damage are they likely to do. If you are more likely then you should pay more. Now it is unfair to new drivers as they could be the perfect driver but still get shafted for insurance but it doesn't change that they are more likely to have an accident. Insurance prices have to be based on risk and trends in statistics and because of this will always conflict with discrimination laws.

Quote from Intrepid :I think the judgement is solely effecting gender discrimination. Yes it's complete and utter nonsense, but that's equality law for ya.

I didn't mean this ruling effects the age of the driver, but women got insurance cheaper as they are less of a risk same as older drivers. Now they have ruled that women shouldn't get it cheaper so surely by the same illogical logic then older people shouldn't either.

I don't understand this either. Surely any discrimination is based on prejudice and not on facts? I have seen the figures that say that men crash more times than woman in a year but woman drive less miles in a year than men so per mile woman crash more often. I have also seen that men write off more cars as most of womens accidents are prangs.

Either way, the insurance companies would of worked it out, if women are less of a risk then they should pay less. I don't see how it could be any different.

Does this mean that us younger drivers could go to court because older drivers get cheaper insurance based on age discrimination?

If (or should that be IF) we beat France in the next round then I would say we have a really good chance of winning the world cup again.

Overall though, we trounced the Italians but still made too many mistakes in that games. Wales played very well fully deserved the win. France Ireland was definately the match of the weekend though. Ireland so deserved to win it, especially when you look at 3 tries v 1 but they, like England, had too many mistakes. Shame Ireland couldn't beat France to remove their chances of getting the grand slam.

Agree with you there, I was expecting Ireland to win easier than they did. Though when Italy were pushing at the end for the drop goal I wad worried they were going to loose. A win is a win though so hopefully the next games can be better.

Going into the 6 nations I was expecting the challengers to be England, France and Ireland but Ireland need to step up I think. Roll on next weekend.

BUMPAGE!!!

So with the first game of six nations 2011 on tonight what is everyones predictions?

I am hoping that England can keep some of their recent form and win but Wales are going to be a hard first game even with their injuries. I am going to predict a score for tonight of England 20 Wales 16.
