  1. yes, the results are confidential to the individual unless they choose to disclose them!
  2. you know it makes sense also check gumtree, old CRT's and stuff on there for pennies
  3. or pick up a crappy projector bolt it to the ceiling and use the wall instead?
  4. the one downstairs at home is a 32" cathode ray tv and its picture is fine. Although I know my monitor is HD and my comp runs blu-ray, so I can watch in incredible quailty but at only 19". So in the grand scheme I'm happier watching the tv downstairs and don't even notice the quality change most of the time
  5. Tree shop Go here, buy a tree for not very much, then all you need is a mill, some nails, a hammer, a decent saw, lots of time and basic carpentry skills. Jobs a good'un

    Dreams...

    Checked flight times, milkmans rounds, buses/trains, heating systems/alarm systems? Anything which would regularly wake/disturb you? If there is something or was something in the past which disturbed you then you body becomes acustomed to it. My dad wakes up at 5.57, just before his alarm (which makes a tiny tick then is silent) even on his days off/holidays different time zones etc, it's bizzare
  7. Nope. it's all about tekkers! I'm not exactly hench and i'll get any grip on the bars without lube. May take a fair bit of effort, but once its on, it's never going to shift! One tip is bunging up the opposite side and using air pressure inside to aid to grip on, or just go all out brute strength! Also if the grip starts sliding on at any point it should be be kept moving all the way on, no matter what ridiculous position you end up in trying to keep pressure on it!
  8. Come on guys, be men Screw all these solvents, clean your bar with meths, leave to fully dry, ensure grips are clean inside. Then....cuss like a trooper and work them on by brute force only.
  9. Happy Birthday ass! inevitable
  10. My saturday Jobs like that at greenland but icey the driver one day was a real anal pack rat and had weights of frozen on the delivery chit (although I cannot remeber the figures). But i lifted every box on that delivery on my own at least once in the freezer so i know the feeling. Although f**k nights they ruin your life socially and you live to work that way not vice versa as it should be!
  11. are you going to change your name to 'eccentric echo' ?
  12. shit sounded like a crappy cascada shite singy/computer/synthesiser chav tune
  13. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8kQ3MKMeDc Btw I'm now listening to all the stuff in my music library which is 'unplugged' Clapton's a genius, but so's Kurt Cobain's moving set
  14. curvature of the earth, corieolis effect and air density and wind will effect this hugely.
  15. Doing skids on grass to save the tyres? oh wait i still do that.... Finding the biggest curb and riding off it? Getting stitches, as a result? I was going to say Yo-Yo's too! oh and tar for the brakes or coke?? And the 'invincible' Mavic D521

    Rubens was lucky to avoid being slammed into the wall by the rolling road block of F1
  17. Thats really odd, just scrolled down and opened this up, and whoaaa I'm already listening to that!!! spooky
  18. just spent a week sorting out the bontrager twentyfour12 race event. hammering around on a pair of these in the woods with a mate was epic, especially when it rained!! Also had a ford ranger double cab pick up which was a workhorse for the woods and forestry tracks, but great ability, never got stuck even with my minimal skills behind the wheel!! Didn't have time to get my enduro wheels onto my wr250 otherwise it'd have been even more fun.
  19. 'Claim' and 'Tell her' are brilliant, usually played with a safety word which can quickly added on the end of a offending sentance to stop other calling claim or tell her!, which as you've guessed is.... 'safety' although you have to pretty sharp otherwise others will nail you, means you can let a few slide oh and 'cheers' every time you let go of a drink, when you pick it up, the first drink of the duration it remains in your hand, must be proceeded by saying cheers (not to everyone but it must be heard)
  20. I like this. played it once on a night out, couldn't remember the key word or name, was a messy night. 'Mine!' - Person 1 - "Who's drink is this?" Person 2 - "What, that one? ... That's mine..... oh f**k!" Saying 'mine' incurs a ten pressup penalty. Ended up doing it on the main dance floor of the biggest club in Plymouth, with another mate after I said, "Oi, that's mine" to a mate and he replied "naaa, it's mine"

    I was suprised Webber held it together in the press conference, and was pretty sure the Red Bull tech guy was gonna have a fight with a reporter haha. Personally though, I was laughing my head off after the coming together, shouting at Mclaren for letting Vettel hop them in the pits and impressed at the fact there is now a team to take the race to the aussie and the german!
