Nice

Part of my mid life crisis. Hit 31 this year and have loads of things I still want to do so it's the year of tickets for events and flights and whatnot.

I'm also going on a banger rally fairly soon, we should try organize an OcUK team!

31 is a bit young for a MLC fella

Nah! Get one when you can I'd have one now if I could. Especially with the nice weather

15kg of Big K ACH15 best quality charcoal and a bag of apple-wood and a bag of oakwood chips for smoking on the old bbq - sweet

Where did you get this charcoal from? Is it a lot better than the Big K stuff you can pick up at petrol stations?

I got this bag from a company called HotSmoked.co.uk. I was disappointed with the last lot of Big K charcoal I got (quite a lot of powder at the bottom). From what I have been able to find out, the "restaurant" grade comes in two versions - ACH15 and BCH15. It's larger lumps than you normally get in the normal roadside/supermarket bags, so should burn cleaner and more controllably. Here's a pic of a few lumps from the top of the bag - it's really good quality, but bear in mind that 15kg bag was £20 (15cm ruler for scale)



I'll let you know how I got on with it, probably in the La Cuisine BBQ thread http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18659597&page=10

OK, thanks.

Recommend one for me to try moving from YG then and I shall order some this evening to try.

Well the 100 bags pack I got above was less than £4, really an excellent price for such a tea. I would recommend starting with that! It's got all the good characteristics of a nice mellow tea.

Can then try an Assam, and they all have a subtle difference between brands! The choice is endless really but I've now settled down to a few select brands. Twinings Everyday, Tesco Finest Assam, Taylors of Harrogate (all types), Ringtons Assam and Kenyan though their breakfast blend is great too!

IMO Ringtons offer the best quality to price ratio and the fact that they are in bags of 100 so will last ages

You're doing it wrong.

Don't think it's worth the extra though!

So was it the black or silver one you saw at that price?

I needed the 10% slow motion (720p@240fps) and a couple of other modes the silver can't do.

Yeah was the silver, one place I have seen the back for is £289, the rest are £300+

 

[Spikey]

Titanium with upgraded Titanium X alloys. Has a lot of kit for the money and only £30 tax. (lane alert/park assist etc)

So not the same one then

Quick and dirty test:-

1080p@120fps in the first half and 720p@240fps 2nd half - neither of which the Silver can do.

The silver also can't do 4k@30fps - again, another mode I need.
