As the volcano's banks refused to pay out, councils said they were convinced Iceland was a small, landlocked country next to Belgium with a long history of expert financial management.

MP3 player advice needed
Oct. 10th, 2008 04:54 pmMy iPod has died. I need a replacement MP3 player, and for £100 I can get either the 16GB Creative Zen, the 16GB Sansa View or the 8GB iPod Nano. So that's the Zen or the Sansa for me then!
Anyone got any opinion on either of them?
