Laura Mvula's album 'Sing to the Moon'. It's excellent. Forget the lazy Winehouse/Adele/Sande comparisons...she's a cut above all of them (yes, better than Amy Winehouse) and a million times more original. I'd struggle to compare her to anyone.

I did see an overly friendly fox in the park, by the duck pond- but it was eating maltesers sorry. I don't think it could have been the same one. Did it have ginger hair?

Ah ok, so it's the software that dictates what you can do with the drive, rather than the hardware itself. In which case I shall just buy an external drive. Many thanks for your help. actually, just one more question- as I use an ipod, i assume the itunes software wouldn't be fussy about what drive was being used either? I really do apologise for the stupidity of these questions.

Hi, thanks for the reply. Sorry, i'm not the most technically minded. When I carried out the test, it asked me to use a data disc (like an installation disc or similar) rather than a music disc. I used a kaspersky anti-virus disc and it passed the test. However; outside of that test environment when I put the discs (music cd's or dvds- originals) in, it makes a noise like it's trying to read them- but then just stops, and nothing shows up at all in explorer. I've tried several different discs including new ones and been patient, letting it try for a few minutes. Thanks again,

I hope i'm posting in the right place. If not please feel free to move this thread mods. The CD drive on my laptop has packed up for all except data discs. It won't read CDs or DVDs I have tried running tests through the Boot System Test start up thing- and it's telling me all systems are good (I did a full system test and specific cd drive test). I have also tried updating the driver software through the device manager, but apparently the software/drivers I have is/are the most relevant available. I could do without the expense of a new laptop right now as we have just moved and spent a lot on furniture etc. I have done some basic research into external USB drives, but it seems the only ones good for ripping music cost a fortune (?150-?200). I want a drive to be able to rip cds as I still buy a lot of music and like to put in on my mp3 player. I note I can get an external drive for as little as ?12, which would be fine for listening to music and watching dvds, but my priority is to rip music to my mp3 player. So, does anyone know if the research i've done is accurate, and if so, if there are any other options? The laptop is out of warranty unfortunately. All advice is very gratefully received :-)

It's a pleasure to shop in DKH sainsbury's compared to pretty much any other large supermarket in the area. The staff are generally friendly, helpful and very knowledgable.

If we're talking about the same place in Chigwell?

Two blokes in the pub One turns to the other and says, "I f&&**d your mum last night. I did her from behind, stuck my c&^% in her mouth, then up her @r$? and then sploshed all over her t1t$!"" The other replies, "Come on, I think you've had enough Dad, time to go home"

sounds triffic!

What kind of events will you be putting on?- i've just moved around the corner.

I'm far too selfish to have children. Life is just too good.

Just a quick nod to Dulwich College, who retained the Daily Mail Schools Cup at Twickenham yesterday- beating Northampton School for Boys 27-17. It was a terrific game considering the weather.

the new strokes album- it's suprisingly good

I've been to a few sold out gigs there- it get's busy (the bar can be difficult) but not overpowering. I tend to stand front left, near the gents toilet (it doesn't smell) and there's always a decent view and room to breathe. I think you'd be alright.

I shall be going to Primavera Sound in Barcelona, same as the past few years. The line up is always excellent; it's a non camping festival, so double ensuite with aircon all the way :0) Line up here- in this snazzy little video.

I thought the first album was outstanding This is quite different- no midlake- which was always going to make a difference to how it sounded, there's a more electronic sound to a lot of it; but lyrically he's covering similar ground. Angry and bitter, unsurprisingly.
