Way too many people. Queuing to have our bags searched was the worst part. But it was worth it!
Great place, haven't been there in a good few years.
Me neither. That's why I'm glad this post popped up, to remind me to go
It's definitely a place for sunglasses! Pretty bright in some of those rooms! Everywhere cool is getting filled up with lights and shiny glass!
Even the Lewis Chess Queen is peeved!
She really would like dimmer lighting.......
That’s reassuring to know though ;)
you never know what you're going to come away with
Well, certainly no STD's..................
Thanks. I'm not ready to move on to an apple laptop yet. I possible will get one, but not just yet. And yeah, I don't want it too big as I do move about a lot (usually), obviously not while I'm in burnout.
I've screenshot what you said so I can take that with ms when I go shopping
Trade-off more memory for less processor capacity - 8 GiB RAM may be a reasonable starting point. You probably don't need a particularly powerful graphics processor - the integrated graphics in the CPU may well be enough. You might prefer a larger screen, but limited by how much you are willing to lug about! If you are patient you probably don't need a solid state disk (SSD). Whichever you get, make sure you get an external hard drive so you can backup your data.
Laptops running Windows are cheaper than Apple laptops plus more "industry standard". But the software you want to run will probably dictate that the most. On the other hand, Apple laptops tend to be more shiny.
It's for work, so doing Skype type calls, delivering online workshops, writing, working on documents etc. It's not for gaming or anything but sometimes I have lots going on at one time so lots of files open that I flick through etc. That sort of thing
Swimwear model sounds fab I'm not sure I'd be keen on outdoor shoots in this weather though I think you should be the man that, when someone wants to buy something specific, you sell em something completely different ~ you would get a reputation and people will be like, I want a new tv but I'm going to see cloudy, because it's like Christmas every day with him, you never know what you're going to come away with
And if you’ve got any expertise on laptops, do you have any recommendations for laptops?
What do you want it for?
Yeah, definitely. New career move?
I was thinking of being a swimwear model to be honest, or joining a boy band.........
...and especially considering I was after a laptop
I could go into schools and warn kids about "the dangers of buying Lenovo".
So many choices!
Yeah, I'd say try them. Well worth the money. They have loaaads of anti-reflective coating on the inside and outside of the lenses too. The good stuff they put on watches and high-end camera lenses. All the other stuff at that price point has half the features. Titanium frames and titanium oxide nose pads too, so the nose pads don't go yellow with sweat, and they are light.
I should be a salesman, lol, I just read that!
Lol! Great tip on the sunglasses though. I love the idea of the vivid colours. I usually get prescription glasses and I’ll still get a pair of subscription ones, but I had already decided on a non prescription pair as well for when I wear contact lenses
I like them because it's not like the sunglasses make the world drab, just darker. I bought a pair, just because of the way you have to keep taking them on and off when you go outside and inside. When I put them on after a few minutes I was amazed at the way colours were still vivid. Quite different.
BTW don't ask me about lappy's. I bought a Lenovo, twice. So I'm not the best person to ask!
That’s great thanks. I love these kind of tips and I am about ready for a new pair of sunglasses.
feel free to post more tips.
Ok, sunglasses wise, I buy Serengeti. They aren't the cheapest. I know a site that does the pair I like for £80, but, and this is a big but, they have lenses that are photochromatic. They adjust to light, so if you do go into a darker room, or the sun goes in the lens goes clearer, and they don't drown colour out. You can see colours more or less properly, unlike normal sunglasses, they have lots of shades too, so if you need colour tints they have lots of colours.

Look for the photochromatic ones. Great.
agree abour sennheisers but they're feircely expensive.
The noise cancelling ones are. The cans are the best value for the price.
but if you just want to kill noise then industrial ear defenders are cheap and effective
Have a look at that link I put up for BlueRay. They are ear defenders with an inverse wave that can deal with over 80db for cancelling.
