  1. Was your course oversubscribed? Because that happened while i was at Uni, they were essentially looking for any reason in first and second year to get rid of people to get the numbers down to a level they could cope with.

     

    Having said that there you are allowed to resit exams at Uni of Manchester at least once, the full details should be in the student handbook you get at the start of each year from your faculty. It should detail what happens if you fail an exam. The ones i got did.

  2. This is shocking play by the club. The cynic in me thinks that this was all planned out, appoint Keegan to get us through the season on the new manager results boost, but in the mean time get in contact and line up the next man, and have him sign the players he wants. From the sounds of it Keegan didn't seem to know much about xisco and gonzalez.

     

    I'm expecting the next man to almost certainly be from Spain, given all our signings (bar Guthrie) so far have been. There is even a reasonable gap until the next games throughout europe, most of our star players are 'safely' away on international duty. The next few games are all relatively easy giving who ever the new man is a solid start to try and appease us.

     

    The other thing that strikes me now, is the gagging order that Sam Allardyce has signed, something big plan was hatched that he didn't buy into, so they bought his silence, keegan came in and wasn't told to paper over the cracks. A full proper statement of events from keegan could be very interesting as to what MA's real plans are.

     

    To further prove the clubs uncanny knack of timing things to perfection this arrived in the post today:

  3. Or you can do it the way you have been but make sure every column is highlighted then right click on the column you want to sort by and it moves everything around.

     

    As for linking to together you can do it by using the "paste link" function (right click then its on the paste special menu).

  4. There are some really good non "party" games on the console too. Especially if you like the old style nintendo series. Both Zelda and Mario are excellent 1 player games. Zack and Wiki is a class little puzzle game too.

     

    Recently i have been playing the Resident Evil 4 port onto it, the new controls for it add another dimension to the game.

  5. It's failing as its registered the mac address of the usb modem and not your pc ethernet card. you either need to force the mac on your ethernet card to that of the usb modem or phone virgin and get them to change the one they have registered on their system.

     

    Plug the usb modem back in and go to command prompt, type in iconfig/all and that'll give you the mac address.

     

    now go the properties section on the ethernet card and their should be a box with something like physical address on it, select manual and type in the mac from the usb modem and it should work fine.

     

    otherwise you need to call virgin...

  6. to actually answer your question, try gumtree.com

     

    Great site if you are looking to get a room in shared house. I'm currently letting out 2 of my spare rooms and thats the site I advertised on. They ads on it do tend to get filled very quickly though!

  7. The bands that emo started out with were the Promise Ring, Rites of Spring, Mission of Burma.

     

    This has become replaced by Death Cab for Cutie, Bright Eyes, and any number of pop-punkish shite like Fall Out Boy and such.

     

    I'm a big fan of Bright Eyes and Death Cab for Cutie, I didn't know they were "emo", interesting.

     

     

    They were, then what it (emo) was changed, and they are no longer emo. Emo these days is stuff like fall out boy, my chemical romance and the like. The rock night here in plymouth is truely terrible since they just play emo style crap and when i ask for something like the clash the DJ just laughs...

  8. Do your research properly, certain houses down here are still going up very nicely in value (specifically the victorian terraced houses), while flats and semis have plummeted...

     

    I bought 12 months ago now, and i'm glad i did, had a good steady increase in value,in the long term with property i think you are basically going to be better off.

     

    Interest rates look set to come down in the short term and confidence is fairly low so i think this is a good time to buy, a decent chance of picking up a bargain, certainly at the lower end of the market!

  9. w910i? any cop?

     

    I've got one of them, its a good phone. The buttons on it are a bit weird, not as easy to use as the ones on the K800i, which i had before. The screens big, the mp3 player on it is top notch. It's more of the same from sony ericsson, the cameras a bit crap, but being honest who uses a mobile phone for anything other then drunken night out photos!

  10. Due a new phone next week, not sure whether to get w880i or w910i.

     

    Don't really see the fuss about the iphone tbh. The only new thing on it is the touch screen which is hardly revolutionary. All i want in a phone thats not a normal phone function is a decent mp3 player. Don't really care about sat nav/internet/camera etc. Been using a 2G sim in a 3g phone for 2 years now, never felt the need to upgrade...
