    Near to Reading but even still not too keen on taking my Mac on a bus, don't see why I should have to really; what is even better is that they don't pick up on Saturdays. Wonderful.

    I've been on hold now for half an hour, waiting for someone to tell me when they can pick my Mac up.What a grand support team you have there Apple.FOLLOW UP EDIT: Just got off the phone to them, and by the looks of it there is nothing I can do - they've given me the excuse that they can only pick up Monday to Friday - and I'm at college those days.Whatever happened to the days of the customer? I remember having my Tosh laptop breaking down and them instantly offering to fix it and rewarrentying the whole laptop for free - I really think the least they could do is offer me a bit more flexibility.

    But my local one is a franchise, and they won't be interested in it, I've asked. Closest one is then Regents Street, are you genuinely saying I should only be able to get support 70 miles away by train, and then tube it AND carrying a 10.5kg box?! That is absolutely f**king crap support, I should be able to ring up and get it fixed whenever something goes wrong, get it courier collected. It's happened with any other products that I've had repaired such as my phone and laptop.

    Has anyone here had any luck with Apple Support? I brought a 20" iMac with 500GB hard drive with 2GB of RAM, and so far it's been such a great piece of kit, but it came at a price - and quite frankly it's a complete joke when I've paid over £1,000 for it and all I get support wise is 3 months (from the date I brought it, note, so it took 2 weeks to arrive so I have instantly lost time out of it), and even still it's a bit wishy washy, with only 8 am - 7.45 pm opening hours! In comparison, I brought a domain with 1&1 for £6 a year back, and yet I get 24 hours, 7 days a week support, whatever it is! More to the point though, the problems I've been having is that Bluetooth isn't connecting to any devices I try with it, for no apparent reason, just throws error messages back at me. Another problem is that CD's have been jamming in the CD tray; looks like it's damaged them slightly as well. Other software issues like the screen scrambling in Expose, hanging on startup (it used to start up and be on desktop within 10 seconds, now it's more like 1 minute, even with a lot of disk space left), shutting off programs for no apparent reasons, and in fact it's even totally locked up twice, and having to pull the plug out as it's just stopped dead in it's tracks.Anyone have any ideas what I should ask for, if so ask for a replacement? Just I think it's a bit of a joke having such a hefty price tag and getting rubbish customer service, and issues appearing little over a month after buying it and it getting delivered!
  9. There trench which is under the station I believe is for the first half vertical drop, however it's the bigger concrete hole in the ground by Samurai I'm more excited about...

  13. Just seeing as they have a new coaster for 2009, I thought I should make a topi about Europa Park. Launched, looks good!If anyone here has been to EP, I expect you'll be as excited as I am, if it's to the same amazing quality that the other installations there have been
  14. Your right, and it is a load of crap people really need to stop spreading around.. Not going to happen guys.

  17. The Staff Social is a Preview event on the 11th October, the real first viewing of the mazes by staff, and a selected 3 guests of their choice, however you cannot ask someone to tag along with. And with the JLP offer, you had to buy tickets before and cannot use Annual Passes.

    Corkscrew

    Black Hole has been sold to mexico (or South America) however at the moment I think it's destined to be stored, and if not sold, then to be scrapped, as the metal probably has a high value.
  19. Click here for even better photo of an immelmann on a Mauhrer Sohne!
  20. Immelmanns change between manufacturers, but in general James is right.
