    Too many threads on this site turn nasty and end in bitching and name calling. With the all the furor of the black friday deals this has actually been a very well behaved thread. Well done people, it has been a pleasure. Next year will be sure to bring equal amounts of enjoyment and disappointment as we have all come to expect from this occasion. Night all. I hope you all got at least one thing you anted or at least had fun playing the game.

    It's easier to follow the Twitter and then head directly to the game they talk about, bypassing the BF 'middle man'.

    So far I Have picked up:-
    Canon PowerShot SX220 HS Digital Camera
    Oakley Restless Womens Sunglasses
    Oakley Abandon Womens Sunglasses
    Citizen Men's Eco-Drive Watch BM8475-00F

    Camera because me and gf are getting married this year so as can't afford a 550D £110 for a camera £174 cheapest elsewhere is good (after cashback)
    2x Sunglasses for mum and missus as mum lost her exisiting pair...£35 very good for the REAL deal!
    Watch....don't need it but at that price it is a no brainer!

    A good day for me but that is it....most of the stuff bar the £499 TV and few other bits....missed the ghd for missus (as replacement pair) but don't mind as hope someone who actually hasn't got a pair got them!

    Lightning is an atmospheric electrostatic discharge (spark) accompanied by thunder, which typically occurs during thunderstorms, and sometimes during volcanic eruptions or dust storms.[1] From this discharge of atmospheric electricity, a leader of a bolt of lightning can travel at speeds of 220,000 km/h (140,000 mph), and can reach temperatures approaching 30,000 °C (54,000 °F), hot enough to fuse silica sand into glass channels known as fulgurites, which are normally hollow and can extend some distance into the ground.[2][3] There are some 16 million lightning storms in the world every year.[4] Lightning causes ionisation in the air through which it travels, leading to the formation of nitric oxide and ultimately, nitric acid, of benefit to plant life below.
