So what have you done today..?

Discussion in 'Lounge' started by figaro, Mar 17, 2012.

  1. Been to the Menin Gate ceremony. It is an incredible and humbling commitment the people of Ypres have made.

    Then I read the multi jacking thread. And am now entirely, and unreasonably, angry.
     
  2. I did blindfolded archery this afternoon

    If you haven't done it before,you should try it - you don't know what your missing

  3. The Doctor looked me squarely in the eye this afternoon. "You seriously need to reduce your alcohol intake or you'll ruin what's left of your liver completely."


    "Fuck off, Doc," I replied. "You always say that when it's your round. Get the beers in, you tight ass."

  4. Bought a new car. Well, new by my standards... I'm skint again now but it'll be nice to drive something decent for a change.

  5. Wise move given hardly any programmes are made in 4k to notice the difference

  6. What did you get this post is useless without pics more info :)
     
  7. No pics yet, haven't got it, but its a ten year old Suzuki Grand Vitara ('05-'10 shape) and the five door jobbie, not the little hairdresser's one.
    Bought a diesel in the end. Was set on a petrol but the running costs won. Should be safe until the next election anyway.

    Edit: pic off the dealer's site:

  8. Odd statement but I was after the best picture quality to watch Netflix and HD channels

    Wasn't that long ago there were only a handful of HD channels - think all oled are 4K anyway

    It's a stunning picture and an improvement over my plasma

    Well pleased :)

    Don't want to go down the DVD route particularly but there's a fair few titles out but look pricy
     
  9. SWMBO and I have just been to see tonight's offerings at the Olympic park in Stratford. When we got there we were upgraded to be close to the track so got to see the triple jump close at hand.

    The atmosphere was fantastic. Pity the Brits performances didn't match it :(.

    Now back at nephews house in Walthamstow. And back home tomorrow.

  10. Seems out athletes have been spending their funding on G&Ts and not training.

    Made it home, found no BSB was recorded but by luck it was on Eurosport's highlights so saw it.

    Rains back :upyeah:
     
  11. After a night out and a heavy session I got pulled over by the police in the early hours of this morning.

    As I fell out of my car the copper started checking my number plate, got on his radio and said, "Charlie, Whiskey, Tango"

    I thought, "how the fuck does he know what I've been doing?"

  12. Back home from that there London. Took five hours to get back as the weather was/is shocking and the motorway was incredibly slow, even for those conditions.

    Tonight will be a catch up on last nights GoT and Coronation Street :)
     
  13. You've got a great night ahead! Death toll is massive as is the nudity and general profanity.

    GOT wasn't too bed either ;) :D

  14. Just emailed Brockenhurst Parish Council as they have objected to our application for cladding to replace the (horrible and falling off) 1970 tiles on the outside of our house. I have asked for a copy of their site visit report (bet they didn't even visit) and all paperwork under FOI.

    Rather than objecting to things that improve the look of the neighbourhood perhaps they could do something about the god awful colours the neighbours have painted their garage doors!

    Rant over!!!

  16. i think most parish councils have someone full time looking out for planning applications and objecting to em based only on the fact you didnt ask them first.. next time approach them first.. take food.. laced with lsd... and a camera

  17. Witnessed a girl ( tourist) fall off her hired moped today. She looked ok and was helped by a crowd of onlookers. In all the confusement and embarrassment as she got back on she clearly mistook the throttle for the brake and proceeded to ride across a busy section of road straight in to a tree.

  18. No that's just normal female driving behaviour, check out YouTube and you'll find millions of examples with both bikes and cars.
     
  19. You asked for permission for a bit of stone cladding ? Would not have bothered, would have just stuck it up. I live near Brock, and they would not have even noticed, not exactly a 2 story extension you're asking for, why bother asking ?? :)
     
  20. Mention the word cladding and a lot of councils are going to twitch
