  1. Sadly I'm old enough to remember them (good band too)!
  2. Just a bit
  3. Thanks Bob... they’re standard right now, but I think something smaller and LED is called for,
  4. Those pictures are better than anything I've even taken with a proper camera
  5. Thanks, and noted!
  6. Damn - hopefully it's salvageable. And yes, it was me who raised the issue about additional costs for recovery. Clearly the RAC and the AA are as one on this particular subject!
  7. How right you are! First thoughts after being on the road for much of today? It’s not as precise as the ST and it takes more work to ride it; however, I love that and love the bike’s character and stupid amounts of torque. It sounds incredible and people stop in the street to look as it goes past. I think I’ve found my bike.
  8. Yes, the deal was pretty sweet tbh.
  9. Not at all!
  10. First time I've ever named a bike... sorry for the iPhone shots, but I'll take some better one's over the long weekend.
  11. I sat next to him in a Chinese restaurant in Victoria recently. He might have met an even stickier end had I not been enjoying my food so much
  12. Just read something that made me lol, that bran told jon, who in turn would tell dany, which in turn would set the wheel in motion for bran to then take the throne Just wish he wasnt made a criminal by it, thoigh, i suppose now the unsullied have gone, there's no real reason jon would have to remain a criminal in the rest of westeros' eyes, i mean, theres not really any nights watch left AND we didnt see him take the oath. Think it was kore a knee jerk reaction to the idea of him being banished never to see any of his friends of family again. I hope he does hahaha Ive calmed down abit about it now. The starks all have a claim over the whole seven kingdoms, including the free folk, and arya is likely to rule whatever she finds west of westeros... maybe? I am FAR to invested in this stupid show Well, the way I saw it is that Jon has already disobeyed the edict that he return to the Night’s Watch, because he’s leading the entire population of Castle Black to what will obviously be a new life, albeit it in a pretty crappy climate. I don’t see that as exile at all (at least, not the intended exile) and I think we’re to use our imagination as to what comes next. I’m sure a pardon would be somewhere down the line, too. Edited to add: there was definitely a missing segment, from the Jon/Dany incident to the meeting of everyone to decide who should be the next king or queen. The Dothraki appear to have done a runner during that time because they were nowhere to be seen, and obviously Jon would either have confessed or been found out. Not knowing anything about these events left me feeling somewhat cheated.
  13. I'm WFH today and I couldn't even look at my phone for fear of seeing something... just blacked out the lounge and watched it before starting my day off in the real sense!
  14. Well... (Don't worry, no spoilers this early in the day!)
  15. [mention]Magpie84[/mention] Yay!!!!!
  16. Damn - I heard it but couldn't put two and two together at the time. Thank you, and that certainly makes his demise slightly more acceptable!
  17. Oh, that's superb work, [mention]Gin[/mention]
  18. [mention]Gin[/mention] Totally agree about Qyburn's demise - he was a weasel and it was quite fitting. [mention]Hoggs[/mention] - I think you've oversimplified the morphing of Dany into what she appears to have become. It's been a whole chain of events that have led to it; losing two of her babies, which I'm sure had a profound effect on her; seeing both Missandre and Jorah taken from her, the two closest friends - if not more - that she had; Jon's "news" and subsequently his effective betrayal when he shared that news with Sansa; her understanding that she will probably never take the throne anyway given the near-universal love for Jon, who just happens to be the rightful heir in any event; the end of her love affair with Jon, with whom no doubt she saw her future (as king and queen); the loss of most of her army, the people that genuinely worshipped her... The list goes on and on, and I don't see that the writers could have done anything more to chart her descent from someone of virtue into something of a genocidal maniac. That's just me, though
  19. As an aside, I also think it's clear that a live dragon is no longer a viable option (unless it's Dany that ends up sitting on the throne - if there even is a throne any longer - which I don't see happening). I wouldn't really know where to put my money though, to be honest.
  20. Even if you would, I'd suggest that shooting people in the head for theft would be a tad harsh, no? Not at all. It's probably to quick a death for the perpetrator to realise he's being shuffled off of his mortal coil. If you mean that, there's nothing more for you and I to talk about on the subject.
