Got 2 dogs and a cat, I'm not a dog person, but I love my dogs, no pictures though. But here's the cat, not sure what it's name is really, get's a lot of "Cat", "Puss", and combinations. I think it's real name is Fozzy, I've just realised I keep calling her it as well. Whatever.

Okay, so here's the pictures of so far. Can't get the paint off, had the concentration of caustic soda 50x higher than what it suggests on the bottle. I put it on the frame, it solidified, and then fell off.... The current amount of build done + the parts on my bed, that take up my tiny little box room at home, or they did, until some of them got combined.

I roam the streets wearing a mask. But its not a placement, only so while committing exhibitionism my face never gets caught on tape. And it is anything but bad ass. I hate people thinking that. If I tell anyone what degree I'm doing my next sentence is normally to let them know how much I dislike it and how I can't read their mind. However small it may be.

I'll take the azonics if you don't mind? I'm tall and old, I want the front end as high as possible so I don't ruin my already delicate back cheers again for all the help my lovelies. I'm gonna have to be the 24 tour whore to pay everyone back at this rate. How important is a top cap too?

Mate, if you don't mind that'd be awesome. But I don't wanna take the piss, I think I might need some stem stackers but I've got no idea how many. Sorry for being a cheeky b*****d but if you've got a few lying around you could throw in, it'd be awesome. Just want this beast rolling.

They will be up shortly, although they're pretty weak due to the lack of parts lol. Another week until its sorted, major lame.

The never ending story continues. Bars don't fit the stem lol. What a school boy error. Will put pics up later but not of a working bike

Forensic Psychology and Criminal Justice. It isn't something I particularly enjoy which doesn't help motivate me to learn about it.

God, I'm hating my degree at the moment. I hate everything about the academic side of my university experience. It's been terrible. I can't do the whole, go and learn for yourself. I need more teacher time as it were. I've learnt how to write academically and write essays that get solid 2.1s, but I don't know my subject in the sense that I can tell you theories and what they are, or who did what. I understand and comprehend quite easily, but I need more teacher time to know that shit. If that makes sense. 9 grand a year now to get the same amount of "education" I've gotten every year is a joke. Right now I have 8 hours worth of lectures a week. That is all I have to do. I would pay the money to experience what I have and to get the piece of paper that'll help get me jobs for the rest of my life. But I wish I could have got more teacher time so I would have learnt a lot about what I'm meant to be doing. Sorry for the massive OT.

The whole, 20 is easier to learn on is a myth as far as I'm concerned. Get what you want to ride, and learn the way you want to ride. Why get a mod when you say your heart is set on a 24"? And if you get a mod, then want to change to 24 you've got all that hassle to deal with.

I live about 2 minutes from Lime Street. Just up the hill. So I can do whenever really, not hard for me to get in to town

Either lash a PM my way or post in here, I can do whenever, even if it's just a few people I'll come. I'm sure I'll be horrific, but I can learn

I reckon you need one of those first. PS. This is a joke. Don't take it to seriously

I'm up for this, I should have a bike sorted by this weekend. So let me know, I'll be up for riding whenever basically, weekends, weekdays, daytime, evenings. Maybe give me a few weeks to get some practice in

Hopefully there'll be pics and a full bike this weekend Thanks for the offer, but I'm completely sorted now, just a case of waiting for the postman then beginning the build!

The final bits are either on their way, or with me. For anyone who's interested, should be getting my build on this weekend hopefully

Why's everyone saying remashed? You're one letter off rehashed, which seems to be the word you're looking for. Or maybe I'm missing something. Everyone's gone from bumming CoD to bumming BF. What a surprise, the difference a week in release date makes. CoD has been shit since the earlier WW2 games. BF2 was insane. It seems that both games have come to a bit of a middle ground where they're both pretty shit now.

The equation you need is on the graph monkeyseemonkeydo posted. I'll just throw in an I think, because I'm not 100% sure.

Kurt Cobain and Stephen Hawking.

Surely whatever software you're using to make the graph can give you the equation of the graph? Giving you the equation to work out any variable at any number?

I think the reason scooters can seem easy to pick up is because it's so easy to take a foot off and keep going. My bird's cousin's kids all ride them. And they can do stuff so easily, just because they basically throw a foot down then do something. Like they seem to go up pretty big kickers and quarters, but it's normally only because they put a foot down on the lip and then drag themselves up with their foot. And like it's been said, you'd look mighty homo on one of those. I don't even think they do them in adult sizes do they? If you want to get into something else for just a bit of part time fun I'd advise giving Parkour a go. Great way to keep fit, you can do it anywhere any time. All you need is a pair of trainers to get going as well.

Cheers for the offer Sam but I think Skoze is sorting me out this week. And I'm hoping to sort some of my own soon anyway. And I wasn't gonna mention anything. But I didn't ask anyone to give me anything, I was a bit hesitant. People helped me out, and I'd do the same. All the parts are gonna get returned if I don't use them or once they're replaced and I ended up paying for quite a bit of the stuff anyway. I dunno why I feel I should be justifying myself but I don't want anyone thinking I'm taking the piss or whatever.

I just stare at the middle of my finger as it comes in. I have to do it the same way as Ali, both hands to hold my eye open. The optician said I had the strongest blink reflex he'd ever come across when he was trying to put them in because he just couldn't do it. (Thanks for protecting me so well body.) I really struggle getting mine in, for me it was just a case of persevering for the sake of the benefits. Even now I still knock lenses off my fingers due to me trying to blink etc. As soon as you get it in, I move it around a little on my eyeball, that'll get rid of any trapped air underneath which for me can make them really uncomfortable if I don't get rid of it. I've got the small eye hole problem too, I think that doesn't help when my vice like eyelids are trying to crush anything that comes near them. I found that I need to put an equal amount of pull on each eyelid so the whole is even and I can get my contact in. It is just a general ball ache for me, my eyes seem to burn as well when I put the lenses in due to the solution they're in. I have dailies if that makes any difference. Only been using lenses for about a year.

I thought about dipping. But I reckon the headtube and BB threads will get demolished. I'm gonna have another go next week. (So lame having all this stuff at home) I'll try a more concentrated mix.

Nitromors definitely didn't work Oh well, will have to try caustic soda again.
