    Other 'non-watch' fora?

    Just wondered what sort of other forums people frequent that are non watch related.

    Singletrack, an mtb forum for me

    That'll take some reading. I've already laughed at this advice about what to do with a fat lazy wife:

    My advice would be simple. Just encourage her to walk a mere 3 miles every day and I can promise in just 1 week she will be 21 miles away.

    Far from all, they are mostly recent anime but there are many I will have to watch. Watched Hellsing Ultimate 5 and 6 last night. Thanks for the link. I will be watching Angel Heart next it is a sort of follow up series to City Hunter.

    I'm watching Desert Punk and laughing my @ss. :lol:

    Don't miss Basilisk, the animation and the story are great also one of the best anime opening and ending songs. :)

    Re: Other 'non-watch' fora?

    As far as actualy forums are concerned - I really don't visit any others. One of my early posts explains why I think TZ is substantially different http://www.tz-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=77848

    I certainly visit many motorsport sites with a forum but have always found that they attract such ill-considered partisan views and post such vitriolic comments that they ruin the whole thing.

    The mainstream F1 sites particularly seem to attract a high proportion of weirdo's and opinionated to$$ers posting dross, but maybe it's just me being a monumental snob. :?

    Just Pistonheads and Abarthisti for me. Don't think I have time for any more!

    http://www.dropzone.com/ (predictably enough) for me.

    But beware of their "speakers Corner" forum (http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/g ... ?forum=35;). They bite in there! :evil:

    Otherwise, it's stuff for Canon Manual Focus (FD) Cameras, Caterham (7) cars, & Rohan (http://rohantime.com/) for me.

    Mike.

    Have DP on dvd fun series just can't watch it with my daughter. Seen Bailisk through Netflix. I have to compile a list of which I need to watch. And I prefer Tank from BeBop for an opening song.

    I have Cowboy Bebop (the movie) but never saw the series, thanks for the reminder. I also used to like the opening from Bleach (season 2, I believe) but then got bored by the plot and stopped watching.

    There is also a movie made after Basilisk but not as good as the anime.

    Ah, so much to see and so little time. :D
