Or is it easier to copy it to DVD then rip the DVD to the computer?

What's the best way? I don't want to sent the tapes off to someone else to do.

There is a fella on eBay who does it.

I suspect in my mind it's Sod in his house watching loads of people's personal moments.

I found them in a box in the attic, unaware I still had them.

It would appear I have dutifully through many house and indeed country moves, some hasty under cover of darkness, always managed to make sure my 1989 and other VHS tapes were saved.

I proceeded to the wee place that does Nasi Goreng and again was thwarted by Friday lunchtime people. Ended up in Burger King for a whopper with cheese which was good though ultimately a let-down based on my original plans.

The only place I ever eat Burger King is in Bangkok airport. So that's just once a year :-(

It’s a pairing I just don’t get.

Much prefer a nice fried egg in there but that’s not going to happen in your regular fast food emporium.

At least we agree on the correct thing to have in Burger King.

I find that taking lunch break at 1200 beats the rush, and not eating anything till then makes it very welcome.

On the odd occasion the Mrs will leave me a so-called ‘juice’ which sometimes I will drink, other times I will pour it down the sink while imploring my kids not to tell on me.

Yesterday morning I realised around 11am that I had not actually eaten tea/dinner the night before either.

were ever at a loose end in the Lehel district of Munich. Only small bottles of beer, sadly. 33l is barely a couple of sips

I strongly suspect these devices are fundamentally protestant in nature, based as they are on the idea that anything nasty must be good for you.

I have nothing to do with it so I couldn't say, really. She tried to make me taste some recently. Words were spoken.
