Stupid Heat have now decided to seal their magazine, meaning you can't browse through it to decide whether it's worth buying or not - so hence in my case it simply stays on the shelf!

Good.

You don't get cheap-arsed people flicking through the pages anymore.

I think they made the right choice by sealing them :thumbs:

Why is it seen as a bad thing to be cheap arsed? I agree with the decision heat made because it is better for business but if somebody wants to go in, read the whole thing, and get away without paying for, all the more power to them. Their up a few quid.

Well, it's the principal really isn't it?

You should pay for something you want to read that's being sold.

What principal? Says who? Plenty of other people buy the magazine. Heat are not going to go out of business. If I can save money and draw the entertainment from it, as long as it is not doing anybody else any harm ... fuck principals.

Basic life principals, that if you should pay for something that is being sold.

Maybe you weren't brough up on those ideals, but I was

People can do whatever they want. I just don't think they should be reading through pages of a magazine for free, as they should be paying for it.

But hey- it's down to what you want to do. Obviously the company won't got out of business, but still it's not somethigng which should be done IMO.

'Basic life principals' is not an argument. It is a term. You have no argument to back up your 'principals' save for whatever mental programming you went through as a child. Time to defrag the hard drive. Their is nothing at all to feel wrong or shameful about by going into a shop and reading the magazines. I can listen and watch thousands of things on YouTube right now instead of purchasing them.

'You should pay for something that is being sold'. Why? What is going to happen if I get away with saving a few quid by not buying a celebrity magazine in a global recession?

Sorry, but I think being able to have your cake, AND eat it, for free, is a very, very good thing.

Look- I don't particularly care if someone buys a magazine or not.

I just think it's good that companies have started to seal off their mags to benefit their revenue. At the end of the day, these companies need to do what's right for them in terms of a financial sense, and Heat have done the right thing.

I don't really want to go into an argument about whether people have a right to look through pages or not. I simply don't care. As I've mentioned before, it's a good decision by Heat- that's all :bigsmile:

Not going to disagree with you on that. Dog eat dog world. If I were the boss of heat I would have made the exact same decision.

Those shots are very nice, the outside looks really nice, and the random bush shelter smoking area :bigsmile:

I don't know why but I have got a feeling I will LOVE it. Especially the smoking area. :tongue:

maybe thats where the living room is? im not sure thats even a pool. it might just be a stretched plastic thing. its a weird shape to be a pool... too narrow :puzzled:

The blue thing is obviously NOT the pool. I assume this is where the living area will be because the rest of the garden is all fake grass.
So the question is, where is the pool ?

Ooo me likey, i love the bus stop its... different.:laugh:

I really like it, not sure about the metal mesh stuff though.

I absolutly love the fact that the living room is in the garden, I hated it in bb6 but looking back it is the best place for it

Houses ALWAYS have something to do with the eye. Shattered designs in last years house, the coloured lightboxes in Big Brother 8. Even the size and shape of the garden door this year is the same as the center of the eye.

That's because this week's edition comes with its once-quarterly Heatworld spinoff magazine.

The garden's getting somewhere, but I hate the wire frames so I hope they're covered over. I'm also not liking the sound of the 'industrial and metallic' colour scheme.

Can someone please point out where the supposed living room is meant to be? Ta.

Maybe under the green things you know ? It might be outside outside, like no roof or something. That's be awesome. Or maybe there is a door which leads to the living room under the blue thing. Just saying.

Well if the theme is 'industrial and metallic', you can expect them not to be covered. The housemates may use them as seats or something else like tasks.

I just hope the walls won't remain white, they need colour. It's too blank like that.

It explains the eye flashes anyway. Industrial and metallic were the first two things I thought when I saw them. I quiet like the idea. It could be a sharp, punishing house.

Don't start getting naughty right ? :tongue: We know you !!! :laugh:

Is that real grass !?
Hallelujah ! :angel:

k. I think the mesh is only a frame to help build up curving walls ,as it wouldn't be possible without support to do this. I also think the living room is where the 'outdoor kitchen' is going to be. Im pretty certain there is a pool inside, as there is lots of groves and netting hiding places and the added fact that there isnt one visible from the pics. I also dont think the 'swimming pool' labelled is a swimming pool. It just looks weird and out of place. Much more likely to be a tarpaulin sheet protecting/covering something else. And lmao, does heat have any sinse? The white thing is a step ladder and not a zimmer frame :P Very promising so far. Funny how in the space of 5 days we've had 3 sets of arial pics, but waited so long to get any of them.

and hey Stu :wavey:
