I had a similar problem with contra. The only workaround I found was to press the home button after starting the game (when the picture is not displayed properly). This brings up the wii menu stuff on top of the game which normally sorts the picture out. Go back to the game (cancel thge menus) and ...

My 360 locks up after several minutes on (in the dash or playing a game). Rebooting brings displays the red ring or lock up during the boot screen. If I leave it a while and turn it back on I get a bit more time but it locks up sooner or later (within 10 mins).

I'd pay money to see Timothy Zahns' "Heir to the Empire" trilogy on the big screen.

Glad to hear it - we initially booked half board but that only gets you meals in the central restaurant (with discount at the others). We changed it to B&B and paid for meals, wasn't the cheapest option but the freedom is gave us was worth it.

Last year, the wife and I went to here http://www.kurumba.com/ and stayed in a private villa http://www.kurumba.com/accommodations-private.html. I can't recommend it enough - so much so we're thinking of spending our share options on going again.

You can get a rough idea of cost from somewhere like http://www.chainreactioncycles.com or http://www.wiggle.co.uk .

I think your best bet if you're speccing up a bike from scratch would be to talk to your local bike shop. Whatever you're doing, they've probably done it before and know ...

Xstreme - one of the best things about living in Guisborough is that 20 minutes after getting home from work you can be on top of the NY Moors.

Guisborough woods offers some absolutely fantastic trails as well.
