Right - had to pack in the commuting for one reason and another and having all this kit hanging around just depresses me so it's big clear-out time.

should be a 2.5 enclosure - look on youtube for videos of how to get the case open - if it's anything like my slightly newer macbook pro you'll need torx / star keys (0.8 and 0.9mm from memory) as well as a small phillips screwdriver. It's simple enough to do and then the drive, when plugged into an enclosure will / should mount easily enough onto another mac (providing it's not been knackered when it was dropped). My USB enclosure cost about £9 from ebuyer.

OSX has the ability to import users from external disks / other macs in which case it'd just be a simple transfer across (Migration Assistant I think it's called, should come as standard.

is the ipad sold? Have sent you a PM...

Woffle, your image isn't showing on my computer. Those http://s3.amazonaws.com/twitpic/ hosted images seem to be very problematic.

Should be sorted now? Cheers

super duper user here - works a like a charm backing up nightly on an automatic schedule...

( I think it's free without scheduling )

Stanley - now at just over 5 months:

He's due his first haircut at the end of the month (the kids want him to stay 'messy' but it's not fair given the state he gets in jumping round the countryside).

Talking of kids - my youngest (4 yrs) had my wife in stitches : Martha came screaming into the living room: "QUICK QUICK CALL THE VET, STANLEY'S WINKY IS ALL RED AND SORE!! HE NEEDS THE VET! IT"S ALL RED! IT"S A H'AMBURGENCY". Bless

(Stanley has just started the teenage boy phase, dry-humping soft-toys / the neighbours (male) labrador etc etc) - ....

^ that Breitling is lovely - just have to be REAL careful buying them off ebay as I've heard some real horror stories about odd frankenwatches being cobbled together and sold on...

(same applies to early Heuers apparently)

Great, large cycling backpack / rucksack. Black with gray / silver flap.

In good condition - can send pictures on request (am on mobile at the moment). Bought off here but it's too big for what I need so will stick to my Ergon...

Now sold.

when you are racing in a sailing boat there is a starting sequence with flags an horn/gun these vary from event to event but the last gun is normally one minute from the start. its an imaginary line and what you don't want is to be across that line at the start gun (you have to sail around the bouy at the end and recross the line), you want to be crossing that line at speed. so the last minute while the helmsman steers and the rest of the crew are trimming sails/acting as ballast some one is staring at the watch counting down shouting out warnings.

this would be the reason for your countdown i'd wager.

its a beautiful watch.

I get the reasoning behind the 5 minute timings - click the pusher and the red dots countdown the minutes. There is a 2nd generation with blue then red dots that counts down 10 minutes, produced with a Lemania movement, this is a Felsa 400n I think. Some are also marked 'Heuer' as they sold through their dealers initially (or something like that).

I just don't wholly get why the minutes are marked down in reverse around the outside bezel - maybe so you can easily countdown the number of seconds remaining rather than passed? Just something else unusual about it - now on a brown leather strap too which looks grand IMO:

oddly enough, no. I can't work out why they're marked like that either? It's very strange - maybe there's some nautical reasoning behind it...

Early, 1960's Aquastar Regate / Regatta watch for me (not my pic but identical to):

Stanley, again. Also constipated at the moment, bless him - he's eating all sorts on walks so not a great deal we can do about it. Butter wouldn't melt.

Also developing a fondness for rolling in stuff hence:

Actually doesn't seem to mind baths too much...

arrgggh. If I had known about this a week ago. Bargain.

Should have said - the shop I bought it from (fully built up) is building me a complete new wheel, rims, royce hub, the works (as you'd expect). Apparently it's a first, they've never seen it happen before - hopefully I'll get an explanation of sorts when they've done all their investigations and x-rays etc. I presume slight wobble was the first indication of failure and then the tension caused it to pull itself apart? Whatever it is it's a manufacturing defect of some description.

We'll see...

Just fecking lucky I wasn't riding the bike when it went otherwise there'd have been a whole lot more fail, probably involving my face + traffic + tarmac.
