The English language doesn't have words for a lot of what goes on in IT. There are concepts for which there are no everyday terms. You might as well expect that a tiny tribe of New Guinea natives who have never seen a white man would have a word for a desmodromic valve drive. Plus - IT guys - stark bollock crazy, every one of them.
Seem to be lots of drivers who think "Oh look, it is raining and dark, I had better put my rear fog lights on then."
I thought your project was the biz and the commitment you showed to it is amazing. As for the result - astonishing! And I for one am glad that you have become a star!
Thanks mate, appreciate that. [emoji4] the next big project for me will be a house..... The ultimate goal is to totally self build, but the first one will just be a renovation. There is the FZR to do first though...the goal for that one is to have a decent sorted and tidy bike for less than £1000 - doing well so far.
My brother built his house himself (with some help, obviously) out of mud bricks that he made himself from mud on his land. But then apparently, in Oz, this is less bizarre than it would be in the UK. But I think renovation is the way to go. I have seen some amazing renovated houses around here. Then you get the soul and the history of the original construction with the modern practicalities.
You're missing the point. With an Apple, there isn't much to do, which sort of curtails the usefulness of the IT professional. It's like saying, "settle out of court". How many barristers are going to be up for that?
I would charge the earth to turn it on and touch the screen if I was a barrister They can blag anyone who would know They could even say it's windows with a cover over the apple
A friend of mine has been a huge influence on me, he turned a semi derelict factory into a house. His 'can do' attitude was amazing. He did everything himself, he would get some books, self educate, then do it. Fat Carl took the fundamental mechanical skills I picked up from my father and developed them. If I had a job to do on a car he'd ask me to bring it over, roll his tool box outside and tell me to get cracking (he was a professional mechanic) he wouldn't do the work for me, but would just keep an eye over my shoulder and stop me if I were doing something wrong. I'd often ask "should I do this like this?" His response was always the same - do it how you think, I'll stop you if you do anything wrong" It was a great way to teach, and he had exactly the same method towards houses. He now lives in a frankly spectacular property in France running a business providing disabled holidays along with his wife and son Wheelchair accessible holidays France disabled gites hotels Brittany Between my Father and Carl, I've learned so much, and really feel with the right attitude and information you can achieve so much more than you think.
Yes! This is precisely how I like to learn. I'm happy to spanner, but I want someone on tap to tell me when I'm fucking up and to make sure I don't. Fat Carl should be running DIY courses.
Get him to make a few YouTube vids. He could become a YouTube celebrity, followed by international stardom. Failing that, pitch an idea to a TV production company where he renovates a old mill in Bradford with a load of DIY newbies. One of them gets voted off every week as their plastering is shite... This sounds a bit familiar...
Just been negotiating on another 999 that I can't really afford, but can't afford to miss - might have to sell my Aprilia in Spring :Wideyed:
