Apologies, just realised it's the same avatar.

Apologies, just realised it's the same avatar.

Oh yeah, that threw me too!

I am curious, what does OSD stand for ? Obsessive-compulsive disorder perhaps.

Old Surf Dude ,(the kids idea) but obsessive-comp disorder would work as well. :scratch:

Well with this hobby it is easy to become compulsive and obsessed.

If you still want to watch Lost Horizons:The Big Bang on tv and you have Virgin Media, it's still on the Catch-Up listings

I Watched both the Big Bang and Rob Cox on the Higgs Boson, very informative.

I thnk this Robert Cox is another rising star in this field!

Just checked the BBC4 Schedule and tonight looks like an interesting night...

Who wants to have an unofficial bet that the skies will be clear tonight?? :laughing3:

Can you save programs with the iPLayer?

[Psychobilly]

Last Night was pretty good on Nat Geo...two new porogs One on the "end of the universe" - lookign at the different possibilities based on the relative ammounts of dark amtter and dark energy that "exist" and the other on "cosmic monsters" -Super Massive Black Holes

but being Nat Geo they will be on a loads of times in the next few weeks...

Can you save programs with the iPLayer?

You can, but not these programs, I checked the availability and they're not available on iPlayer for some reason :scratch: :scratch: :scratch:

[ngc2403]

takes time for them to be put on i think

[russ]

I have little chance of watching any this.....a double thumbs down from the boss. So that's a real blow none of it will be on iPlayer. Hopefully BBC4 will repeat it?
