I was a big fan of Thomas back in the day.

It had a few points of decline, the CGI as mentioned and when the endless introduction of new characters first started.
I struggled at the concept of the first tv series looking different to the illustrated books, Ringo Starr no longer narrating, Harold, Terence, Toby, Trevor and Bertie being introduced - but there are a million and one characters in it now and the theme tune has changed!

I loved Thomas as a kid...

When I was in Nursery we were allowed to take a book home on a weekend, I used to take the same Thomas book every week, one Friday someone got it before me and I screamed the place down as I very upset about it lol...

I still even get stroppy today if I dont get my own way

Went to Liquid in Newcastle last night. Music was blaring and now I'm partially deaf. I've got a constant high-pitched ringing sound in my ears that sort of resembles tinnitis and everything sounds incredibly fuzzy.

Apple have discontinued the iPod Classic and I'm now trying to buy one and unfortunately it seems so is everyone else.

Tesco if you don't have any in store and won't be getting anymore, how about removing it or at least put out of stock on it instead of making me going to a till going "have you got this" only to be told "no"

I remember going to clubs and having that ringing sensation for days. Usually when the McEwans Centre at Rainton had something on! Don't really get it nowadays - must be going deaf or the music is quieter.. Smile

Disappointed that they've done this really. I've got a 5th gen iPod classic and it's still rock solid. Only downside is it's a little bulky. I've also got a 6th gen Nano, and a 2nd gen Touch. The Nano isn't too bad at all, as it isn't bulked down with the usual iOS crap, so I tend to use this most. I found the Touch became a pain as soon as it needed a few iOS updates on there. I'll probably go for another Nano when I need to replace mine.

Large amount of storage obviously saves messing around adding/removing albums, but Nano does up to 16GB - touch doing to about 64GB I think? 16GB is still over 10 days of continuous music (on average).

Yep Tongue Bar 36 and Beach in Sunderland used to be really bad for it going back some years. You'd actually feel the vibrations through you at some points!
