  1. Jeez, think that must be a worst nightmare for any one working in the emergency services.. I have told my family and friends that If my way out of this world happens to be on two wheels, though I know they will be hurt by it, they are to know that I died doing what I loved... Probably won't be a consolation and won't stop my mum cursing the day my head was turned by motorbikes but at least I've said it and there won't be "What if we'd stopped her riding?" Hope the family in the story can get some semblance of normality and happiness back into their lives even through this devastation..

    Board Games

    Oh my Gosh! Too Cute! Look at the adorable white bib! You may have noticed I love cats.. Tully (my black and white moggy) once destroyed a game of "Last night on earth". We'd all paused for dinner and we heard *Thump-Skitter* and she had landed on the table then proceeded to attack all the pieces! Arwin, the Balinese beauty, just enjoys sitting in the boxes of the games..
  3. Pretty much.. The ride out sections aren't used nearly enough!
  4. I'm so excited! Jays family now know he's getting a bike as he opened his full set of textiles and back protector on Christmas His mum is not amused but his step dad is thrilled haha

    Bloody computers.

    There was a massive security breach at some point over the Christmas holiday. All my gaming group were nattering about it on our whats app group.. Hope it all gets sorted soon for you Gautrek! Sounds like a real headache but I guess that's why you buy a pre-built machine. I had the same idea as you, bought all the bits myself but ended up giving them all to a PC guy near me who charged £40 to get it all properly set up for me and never really had a problem. Think I got very very lucky!
  6. Ohh what airbrush did you get and can I get a mini review? I paint GW models and other little DnD figures so my best mate has been trying to convice me of the virtues of airbrushes for a little while now.. Best - Actually having my mum come for a Christmas meal at Jays mums on boxing day! (She normally doesn't really do Christmas..) - Nintendo DS from the other half which I've barely been without since - Being able to finally move in to our first home together! Has been delay after delay but we're in now with my two cats and it's soo lovely to have that freedom back! Worst - Generic Smelly pack. I am really grateful that the person who gave it to me wanted me to have a nice Christmas by getting me something but they tend to give me Migraines To be honest, had a lovely holiday and had the internet gone live in the new house I probably would have been nattering to you lovely lot more. Come this Friday, you'll never be rid of me.. Mwahaha (As long as PlusNet do us right..)
  7. Have a great Christmas mate and good luck with all the wrapping! Hope everyone has a great time this year with a warm house and delicious food, great company and a mad family pet or two!
  8. Hoggs, I have several camping beds, one which is super comfy (If a little difficult to get on a bike! ) Happy to bring them along for you.. Bringing the OH is a must! It's like and initiation ritual

    Star Wars

    I don't think it helped that Harrison Ford has been saying for a very long time now that he was fed up with the character and wanted him to have been killed off at some point in the original three.. Chewies reaction was awesome though, there is no doubt he is the true soul mate to HS . Sod Leia

    We need to set up Forum game nights.. All head to one persons house to sit round playing old games on TVs that are "Too young for this S***!"

    Star Wars

    I have to admit, I don't buy discs any more.. CD's, DVD's etc.. I just buy them all digital and keep them on a hard-drive plugged into the back of my TV! Any shelf space I normally has is rammed full of books so can't be bothered with disc cases too!
  13. You asked for advice and people on here have been decent enough to give you their views. I agree with Joeman and Matty on this one really. Wear those shoes if you want but if you come off and batter your feet up you'll get little sympathy. But then by the sounds of it you already knew the answer you wanted to hear.. It's just not the one you've been given.

    Star Wars

    No. I really dislike the whole milking popular things for every single goddam drop until there is nothing left but a broken dry husk of disappointment. Which is what will happen. And also why Avengers Age of Ultron was bad. Cutting 40 mins out that film would have improved it considerably. But no it has to be BIGGER and BETTER and LONGER and MORE MORE MORE. Though that's a little what episode 1-3 was. This film may be very similar to ep. 4 it still was a good film in the franchise and definitely held it's own. I don't think it was perfect but I did recommend it to my whole office and then go see it a second time Have you been able to go yet Hoggs?

    You made me think I'd mis-spelt the thread name!!

    Ok that should keep anyone out who doesn't want it ruined for them. Yes, anyway, I did not feel that the death was handled well enough.. I should have been in floods of tears begging the big screen not to let it happen ( "Why God, WHY!?" ) but I wasn't.. Seen in twice now and though it was sad it wasn't the emotional send off the character deserved..

    Yay! Got a date you can make.. Woop! Jotted in the Diary Looking forward to it
  21. Like the idea and think it looks pretty cool but I don't even trust flip face helmets, never mind variant of it.. I will probably always wear my full face / one shell helmets until I see solid evidence that say's something easier to wear has the same / better safety. Just my two pence.. !

    I can't wait for the ride out to the fish and chip shop to get my chips and gravy!
  23. I will also agree that the GoPro sticky pads are brilliantly sticky. I have used them for Biking and Skiiing / Snowboarding and even when I've truly gone arse over tit down a snow slope it didn't dislodge the slightest.. Really impressed
  24. Know what the fancy dress theme will be this year
