rubik cube

Try and get the real mccoy if you can. Picked one up the other day to play with it and a lot of moves are long winded (the way i do it anyway) and if i can't get into the groove or the cube keeps locking (like the cheap ones do) it makes you forget where you are. Considering i hadn't done it since school didn't take long to get back the moves. Everytime i visit i pick up the cube now, although a piece of plastic from inside fell out the other day. Worth having a go...

If you want cheap, I've used this ebay dealer from Hong Kong- http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330249841286
£2.24 delivered. Cant beat the original Rubik branded versions for quality and speed though, but these ones are decent enough cubes for the money.
I used this ebayer because it was cheap postage on a larger order, good for party bags (a different story
) but dealer was fast and reliable and I still have several of them working fine after many months of abuse.
However, I would also recommend paying the extra and buying the Rubik brand. Try your local Woolworths, my one stocks them.
Get practising, the Uk Open is in November.

yes get the original because when you take all the stickers off and replace them like you have completed it they stick perfectly........lol
Won't take long to complete it, just take the best moves from everybody. You look for certain patterns and make moves from there.
When i am in the zone i can glance at it then have a conversation with eye contact with other people as you just know the moves without having to look.
