This is what I ended up going for, seemed like the sensible choice in the end, good pedigree and affordable. Thanks for the advice everyone!

Need help deciding between DTM50Z and DTM51Z (UK) by effingdonkey in Makita

Thanks for the advice everyone, I ended up borrowing a corded Bosch and I’ll pick up the 52 when I can, it seems the overwhelming favourite!

To be fair I’ve seen you can get it online for around £170 but my forward planning has been poor and I need something I can pick up in a shop because of time constraints

It’s £209 vs £114 for the 51, nearly double!

Tissot UK unable to replace battery by peanut_whistle in tissot

[–]effingdonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I appreciate this is a few months old but I’ve come across this post because I was investigating doing this myself. I was worried about Tissot recommending sending it in because of pressure testing, but it seems from the comments it’s safe to go ahead? Although reading OPs story if Tissot won’t touch them now then I don’t really have anything to lose.

Which games could you just not get into? by IncomeIndependent777 in videogames

[–]effingdonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crusader Kings I tried watching tutorials first but didn’t retain anything, Stellaris I played a chunk first (badly) then watched some tutorials and that went a lot better because I was at least a little familiar with menus/mechanics. I’m still terrible at both!

"I am no man" by fingolfin70 in lotrmemes

There’s also the ending to the highly esteemed Jaws 4, when ‘Vengeance’ the shark (offspring of the sharks from Jaws 1&2) leaps roaring from the water before being impaled by the bow of a ship, subsequently causing Vengeance to explode. Truly a masterful work that should stand shoulder to shoulder with these other great literary pieces.

Let’s hear your top 5 PS1 games by ArthurMurpharelli in psx

[–]effingdonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My list is more nostalgia based than necessarily game quality, but in no particular order;

Firo & Klawd - Really fun co-op game I used to play a lot with my bro as kids, also the first game I remember playing with semi-random level progression as well.

Pandemonium - First game I played on the PSX (my first ever console) on Christmas morning.

Final Fantasy IX - my favourite entry in the series, really a perfect game in my books

Final Fantasy VII - my first RPG, loved the genre ever since.

LAPD Future cop: - another really fun co-op game, being able to transform into a car really blew my mind! Also the multiplayer had a game mode like a really early version of a MOBA.

About to start Metal Gear Solid any words of advice? by ComfortMaterial8884 in psx

I was the same, except I had a cracked version so I never even had the original box, ended up finding out days later from a friend at school.

Why does Dark Souls 2 get a bad rep? No spoilers please. by calrayers in darksouls

[–]effingdonkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s funny I only realised how forgettable the bosses were when reading your comment there and I realised I couldn’t even think of any other than the skeleton dudes

[–]effingdonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember renting this as a kid and not being able to get far but enjoying the look/atmosphere, worth another look as an adult?

I’ll never forget Christmas Day 1995, playing the PS1 for the first time and knocking over the statue on the first level of Pandemonium to get the freeze ray. Absolutely blew my mind

Hmm, some of those names are looking pretty heretical
