The only difference with a gaming monitor is it's refresh rate (especially at high resolutions).
This one I am using is 48" wide, curved and can manage 60fps when gaming at a resolution of silly x stupid. Very immersive.

...that I have gone mostly deaf in my right ear.
It's a trifle disconcerting. I may have to get a rodding and jetting kit out from the hire shop.

Hate front loading bobbins but it may be nice to get her some new metal ones.Bit chilly 'ere smornin. (Telly said we'd had the coldest November day for 30 years, a day or two ago!)
Had to run out twice in just my shirt to the end of the drive.
Forgot to put the bins out last night, so once to see if the bin men had bin, then again to put 'em out!
Blinkin tea went cold!
Doggies woke us at 5 to 8 as usual. we can't fool 'em!
Waitrose has delivered.
The booze we ordered from Tesco will be delivered Sunday.
W has some sort of "Christmas Slot" organised (oooh, Matron!!) for the rest of the special Xmas stuff.
All Christmas presents have been delivered. (Thank you tinternet).
So all that is left is to put up the decs, wrap the pressies and post off the ones going afar. So hopefully the only queue we'll meet will be in the post office, or what goes for one nowadays.
Nope we don't like the shops at Christmas neither!
(I don't like 'em ever, well except maybe tool shops.)
W just gone off to her armchair tai-chi.
For @WhiskyLassie, yes the bobbin goes in from the front and you can wind it full, either from the reel directly or, if you don't want to unthread the sewing mechanism, from where it goes down to the needle in a right old cats cradle fashion! According to the manual.
Husqvarna Prisma 980 Computer, is the name of it and honestly it looks like one heck of a good machine. It even talks about sewing leather. So I am glad we now have two!
Have a good day folks!

Almost totally deaf in my left lug. After a traumatic de-waxing - 3 visits to the hearing centre 12 months ago - I thought my hearing might improve. It hasn't....that I have gone mostly deaf in my right ear.

Why? It looks like a lot less faff than tothers.
The machine came with a shed load of bobbins.
(The original one I mean, i.e. the one with no pedal, I principally bought the other machine just for the pedal.)

Top loading bobbin drops in and you pull through easier, front loading has to go in another casing to sort the tension and if you don't get it in the right way and go to make the under loop it's annoying. Try both and if I'm wrong about front loading machines being more annoying than top loading I will concur defeat.Why? It looks like a lot less faff than tothers.

Yup it was but I pulled all my funds out when I came back from Birmingham after buying that old colt.
I woke up on the Sunday morning & thought if I pull it out ive got the car for free from my profit.
Went on to Coscoin & they had an offer if you put in funds they would double it so I pulled all mine out.
& put in 129 dollars then they doubled it so I pulled that out too.
I called my mate who put me ontoit & they had 26K in it, I told him to pull it all out but his mate said to leave it another week & they lost the lot.
I went to the hole in the wall last night & took out £2160 from Revolut. 250 each time & they charged me 5 sovs per transaction.
Not bothered as ive got the cash haha
