Yeah shes on a decent wage too. Had to find somewhere fast under the circumstances and a mate in work has just moved into one and loves it and the area really quiet. Plus didnt want to get into a mortgage until we know we can actually live together. Not the best time to take the tumble either tbh.
Give you a bell for a good deal on a sky setup when we move in dave! :lol:

Popped into PCworld earlier. Phillips 42" LCD for £499 but it's a promo with sky so you sign up for sky too. I would jump at that If we were able to move in now! Hope it's still on in new year.

Got an annoying problem with the car atm. It's in limp mode (Has been since Sunday) kept forgetting about it but looked further into it today. There are no codes, disconnected battery but still in limp mode. Hoses look good, couldn't see anything obvious earlier. Anyone think of anything of the top of their head?

Cheers for the offer Dave.
Carl, gutted mate. Old mans van had the same done to it last week. First sign of trouble in my street for years. Luckily mine was on the drive.
Still can't get to the bottom of this limp mode thing, doing my fecking head in now.

Oi Dave, does that apply to me? I need to cancel my sky, and then order it myself, instead of my dad paying!

Carl, why is your mate calling you honey?


More to the fact, why am i surfing the net at 04:23? Answer, i'm not any more, goodnight!

Cool, you reckon it would work for me Dave?

My account at the mo, is in my dad's name. I want to disconnect that, and then open up an account in my name,, reckon i can utilise your offers?


Just got back in after the boxing, thats why i was up at that time, and not tired at all. I'm currently on 4 hours sleep, and feel genuinley great.

This is only here because there are a group of about 10 of us who all live within 30 miles of each other who all have ibiza cupra's, so is very useful for us to ask for local help, and discussion of people who are local to be able to help.
There are regional sections, on the forum, but as this was such local, and only about ibiza's, its been allowed to stay, plus there is alot of info on here, that I personally refer back to quite abit.
