    Paranormal TV Shows

    Most Haunted is the most common version of these type of show in UK, but we also get some of the ones you listed. Also Paranormal Investigators and some I cant remember. Occasionally you actually see some interesting footage, that is if it hasn't been meddled with. Who knows for sure with tv shows.

    thegreenmachineonline

    I have personally not had bad service from TGM and I have used them a lot over the last 6 -7 years. The focus does seem to be shifting more towards the online business, but a business does have to change to survive there is also a lot of good competition.

    fifty shade of grey

    I am surprised at the number of men I know going to watch this trash ehem film. Well maybe, just maybe it is a good film, but the book i hear was trashy and not well written (all second hand info). I cant see the attraction... anyone explain?

    how many tanks?

    I am very lucky, most of the tanks are tucked away though. Still writing that list down made me feel a little uneasy...

    how many tanks?

All...

    I dont think it is a love or hate it thing, a little on toast is nice, but too much and its yuck.

    Am I being a tight-wad?

    I saw this post and so wanted to say "Yes, you are tight-wad!", but no, I think you have your head screwed on. ADA, is a lovely brand, but I think they take the pee pee in areas. Then again, they can only do that if there is a market willing to pay silly prices.

    Aquarium Weight

    This is a perennial question on fish forums and usually larger tanks are in question. I really would not think it would be an issue for a 90litre. You are talking about 100-150kg in total. a floor should really be able to take the weight. I used to live in a house with wooden floor boards, for...

    Bored of the Rings...Hell No!

    Saw it tuesday night. On the whole very good, i liked the way they married it up with Lord of the Rings considering it has all been done back to front. I also appreciated the lore from LoTR and Silmarilion. Did not feel like 2hours 49 mins at all. Still some iffy bits like Radagast on his bunny...

    so who is getting excited about the Hobbit? Ok im not really, really excited, i am looking forward to it though. I am currently re reading the book. I read it the first time when i was 10.

    UKAPS changes the way you speak...

    Well the way some of you write anyway. I have noticed this over the last few years, not particularly surprising either I suppose when one thinks a little more deeply about it. This is all a part of information exchange after all. Anyone else noticed this? Or should I say any "folk" noticed...

    Is this crab reef-safe?

    Few crabs are truelly 100% reef safe and what makes one relatively harmless maybe down to what corals you keep in your aquarium. I remember when people used to say that red eyed and hairy crabs are ones that can be particular pest. I would not fret over it too much, perhaps just keep an eye on...

    Planned Obsolescence

    Indeed, I always think it, but try telling you average economist and they do not accept it. "Humans will always innovate". The material IS finite, a simple fact. There are only so many ways to skin a cat(?)... lol.

    Illegal Fish and LFS'

    There is no question in my mind that you did the right thing. What puzzles me a little is if you knew about the species and the huge size they get to, what made you purchase them? All the same your follow up is to be commended.

    fishie related petition - sign?

    Some in the industry still promote tiny tanks and bowls for goldfish and in my view that is totally inappropriate. One cant then be surprised when Joe clueless thinks its all fine and dandy to keep the fish in a poor environment. The goldfish bowl is very well entrenched, education I think is...

    Solar roof panels

    They are absolutely massive in Germany. PV generates a significant about of power over there, enough to affect system balancing. I was quite surprised when I saw the figures.

    Anyone got advice for working in an LFS?

    Thats why you get into supplying the water gardening crowd :D . I know my LFS does it to help things tick along. I reckon there is plenty of scope there of scaping albeit from a different perspective.

    Matt Holbrook-Bull?

    Ah ok, it was just that i did not see any mention of it, just seemed to be here and then gone. I just wondered.

    This is kind of random, but wasnt he a UKAPS founder and well were did he disappear to? I dont think ive seen him on here for a long while. That is unless he has another user name. :eh:

    Where are all the Girls??

    Yup horse riding is not exactly the safest hobby in the world and yet people can be so boxed in their thinking. It is not fun ending up under a horse. Seems like so far things are tallying with what ive experianced: 47 people and 85% are dudes.

    Its the twinky 2000s, before long girls will be boys and boys will be girls... or maybe just in a certain area of Bangkok.

    Illegal Nano tanks?

    I think legislation is often well intentioned, but often clumsy and does not fit all situations. In some ways it has its merits because there are far too many people who take careless attitude to these little life forms. Yet it is not just about tank size, there are other prequisates for a...

    Where are all the Girls??

    So far this sample is suggesting we are 80:20 not too different from my youtube stats. If UKAPs were a nation we'd be in trouble unless of course 3/4 of the males were gay. That would be an unusually happy country. :P

    The Royal Wedding

    When I was a tiny ickle one, I do remember somthing of national hype around Charles and Diana's wedding, but I dont feel it this time, maybe its a bit like when Christmas is no longer the magical experiance it used to be. The TV advertisements tell you somthing on the lines that "everyone is...

    Where are all the Girls??

    Why is the planted and wider fishkeeping hobby so dominated by males? I would have thought ladies might be into a bit of gardening. :D I have a few planted rainbowfish vids on youtube with approx 7,500 hits between them, 85% are blokeys of varous ages. I know of one lady on here and even...

    What would you buy - India Trip Feb 11'

    Re: What would you buy The best LFS in India seem to be in the South from what ive understood. It would be well for you to get on and make contact on the Indianaquariumhobbyist website. I am sure they would be able to help. I would guess Delhi is your best bet for the places you are going.

    Climate change (Why do PFK bother with blogs?)

    Re: Why do PFK bother with blogs? Didnt Mr Heiko Bleher write that article? He may not have requested its removal, but he has done similar on various rainbowfish forums. I have a lot of respect for him, but he has often not taken well to alternative opinons. He has done so much for the hobby...

    Mini Cooper because it doesnt look like most other cars, its not big, parking in my area is a pain, its really a BMW, er and it keeps its value well and erm and my friend Julie says they are gay and well i disagreed and bought it anyway. If in the end it does turn out to be gay, I dont care I'll...
