Ah main tanking, I am the most sporadic tank at the best of times so if anything I'm always OT. Need to try monk tanking though, Warrior still strikes me as the most difficult to grab mobs.


Monk tanking is a lot of fun! I have yet to drag one up to 90, but I really enjoyed the time I spent on it. I'm a prot paladin, and because of a fairly low ilevel (my main is a resto druid, with better ilevel) I usually go OT unless I know the fight very well. My best friend goes MT, and he's a warrior. He always seems to be able to grab a group of mobs very easily, most of the time I end up having to taunt a few off him. He really recommends warrior tanking, it's come a long way in the recent expansion.


I've got a prot pally that I really like as well as a blood DK, nothing quite like tanking as a Gnome :lol: I need to join an actual raiding guild again. Just no time. On the topic of Monks I love my Windwalker, so much fun to play as!

I fail to see how that is a reason to be happy.

iPhones are extremely decent handsets, highest build quality I've came across in smartphones (actually higher than that of Samsung, despite the featherweight).

As I don't use Mac though, it'd be an isolated device and it's at its best when used in a suite of Apple products, like Sam said, syncing music, docs, etc.

Same as every other Apple product: Nice hardware, shame about the software.

I just like ragging on iPhones.

I'm sure 90% of the iPhones i've ever seen have cracked screens as well. I've dropped my phone so many times and it's barely scratched.

I want a Samsung as my next phone. I am currently using a mates 3GS which I manage with I guess. Not sure I would get another iphone. All look the same, all more or less are the same.

The new hospital at Southmead is swish as hell. Looks more like an airport than a hospital.

I'm off to Tuscany for a mate's wedding today. I am going to drink all the wine.

EDIT: I've known all along Johnny Borrell was coming to this wedding. I've just found out that he's staying in the same house thingy as me. It's going to take every fibre of my being to resists dropping Razorlight song titles in to any conversation with him, because I am wholly immature.
