    VHS to DVD

    Hello I'm looking into getting a machine to convert my VHS tapes to DVD, but a quick search has shown me a couple of software packages that do it through a PC. Does anyone know about this method of conversion, and can recommend a good one (easy to use)? Thank you, DJ

    Tube challenge "Alternative Challenges" website

    Did a Zone 1 Challenge years ago, missed two stations but was a good learning curve: I think the full challenge is the main one of interest. Will be embarking on a challenge based on a certain London board game soon.
