I've looked in Woolies several times over the last few weeks. They had Gold membership cards on the shelves a few weeks ago but I've not seen any points packs at all. Didn't think to ask at the counter mind.

I'll see if my parents are willing to do a detour via Chelmsford Woolies on Wednesday. Worth a go, unless one of the locals is able to get there first and let me know (will gladly swap cards for money NYE-ish if we're both in the same place).

Picked up a PS3 today to try as a Bluray player while I wait for my Panasonic - was £160
If I don't like it I can just sell it on with effectively next to no risk.

It'll be broken by next week.

Nice to know some of the XBLA games let you play your own music (Hexic does, as I just found out). I also paid homage to the 60s by turning a bomb into a flower.

Sony will then swap it for a nice shiny new one that I can sell for more then.

Why thank you

All 360 games support playing your own music, it's required for certification The game can pause your own music to play a cutscene if it wants though
