Aplogies Earlsdau, I totally forgot about this but have just emailed the owner of Badgers Crossing. I will let you know his response as soon as he replies.

I know the guy who had Badgers Crossing built.

He may have some history of the land/former buildings

A very good choice Roobarb. I hope you are enjoying it.

There are some very good sites out there that will help you get the most out of your new tablet.

Don't forget to check out the app store and if you haven't already done so, get yourself a google account so you can sync your tablet to your PC and android phone.

Technical Help / Re: Which new laptop ?

The advice re the keyboard is sound and if you intend doing a lot of typing then its as important as the internal spec.
i went through this process with my current laptop by going to pc world & currys and trying them all out. There is a vast difference between them all both in terms of type of keyboard ( tiled, scrabble, touching keys etc) & build quality. Also worth considering the full size keyboard wuth numer pad if you are working with spreadsheets / number crunching etc.
I've used toshiba, HP, sony & Samsung in recent months and the latter 2 were best for me.

Not used win8 other than on a phone so cant comment but Win7 is sound.

What is your mian use going to be, as that can help you decide on spec.
I do a lot of photo work so wanted a seperate graphics card. Once you start specing your laptop it will narrow your choice down from the hundreds that are out there down to few that suit your need.
if you end up with a short list then visit the shops for a trial run and read the reviews on the web sites.

Hi Roobarb, have you purchased a tablet yet?

If not & your mobile phone contract is due for renewal, wander into carphonewarehouse as they had some deals on last month. You could get a free Galaxy 7" tab if you signed up for a basic Galaxy android phone @ £15 per month I think it was.

I did this and it was a useful exercise as it meant I could play with the tablets & phones to see which suited me best. I decided that the 7" was too much of a strain on my eyes so decided on a 10" model.
I didnt do a deal with cpw because I didnt want the galaxy tab nor the basic phone. I ended up at phones 4 u and got a Huawei phone ( no, I couldnt pronounce it either  :)) & £200 cashback.

The phone is far better than the basic galaxy andriod phone and I put the cash towards a Nexus 10" tablet which is a great piece of kit.

Worth shopping around for a good deal.

Mike
