In some cases if you tell your employer you are moving to a competitor they will put you on gardening leave……

I use the Starbucks whole bean instant.

But only when I am camping…..

Portland, Oregon

Now
London

To this day I still cannot get my head around is that Oregon is pretty much the size of the UK with 4 million people (which is 1/7th the size of alaska with 700k!)

Assuming you want your contracts and calendar sync’d?

Tenerife hasn’t been mentioned..

bruders338 – I have been afk for a few days so did not pick up on this post earlier.

My heart is with you I just cannot imagine and full respect to this forum, awesome once again. It saddens me to tears thinking about what your are going through.

I do not know what I can offer, but if you need anything just let me know.

Same reason they jump light – because they can

A interviewer told me I should take my first Job at McDonald’s while at school/uni off my CV

I mentioned it was significantly more successful than this business and left the interview. The guy was Just like Ricky out The Office – I was not interested.

get the cheapest one on the dell outlet store

My best mate and his girlfriend of 5 years decided to sell their house, give up jobs to travel around asia and reside in Australia

2 week before they went, he dumped her with the excuse “he wanted to shag his way around asia”

yes she sold her car, house and quit her job already.

The features are very good but unfortunately Safari is faster on my ip5 – I believe chrome cannot access some of the more advanced java features that Safari can.

I tend to use it a lot on my ipad though.

Some geeky speed readings

S2000
VX220 (dirt cheap to maintain) – driven one and its so much fun.
Caterham or such?
Of course an MX5

BMW 1 Series Diesel

I would not worry about this in the slightest – if your profile is good they will accommodate.

They seems very upfront with their deliver times

I have ordered a light form them a I guess it is coming in bulk form china and while it has been slow (12 weeks delivery), I have had regular updates to its progress

I use Red Ram which is the budget Icebreaker brand

I’d go with lead beading

we will be a mere blimp in the earths history.

Not even a zeppelin

ooops! :) * blip

Regardless of any of it the earth will recover, we will eventually wipe ourselves out or be destroyed somehow and then give it 500,000(short term in earths life) years and we will be a mere blimp in the earths history.

Actually the more we try to preserve the earth, the longer it will probably take for full recovery, so being green is just human selfishness not actually helping the environment as a bigger picture.

I use one on my MTB and CX bike – love it – takes a bit of tlc from the mud and rain but in my eyes worth it for the comfort.

My fixie tip…..relax!

I rented a place and my emo 14 year old cousin came around and the aura of my flat freaked her out, later that week we found out that the previous tenanted were murdered in the house.

We found some plates int he loft and sold them on ebay as murdered man plates….they sold well.

Both good choices – just depends on the spec of the two as they are quite similar cars underneath. As a company car I would go with the one with a low emissions…lower tax. Ideally 99g Co2 or less and you are laughing.

Cheers thought it seemed a bit dodgy

Advice followed.

I have had a umber of refunds form Apple for Apps I didn;t think were up to spec, so you shouldn’t have a problem.

Looks awesome imho – glad its on my doorstep.

Now they need to fill it!

Jessops and now HMV guess that means 2 more restaurants on my high street that I can afford to go to with the money I’ve saved shopping online.

Bloody lovely!

I hate people like that – I can do crap except spreadsheets!

This is my uncles boat he is building….for his retirement by hand.

Linn Jazz and 1Xtra!

I think Alex has nailed it.

Go down to your local independent and listen to a few systems and buy the one YOU like. Don’t get dragged into other peoples opinions or items on sale or feel like a bargain.

Get one that is nice on your ears.

But do consider seriously if you REALLY want to keep a cd player.

As an active member of the Naim community during the Larvy days, no one was replacing a top of the line Naim CD player with a Larvy DAC, lower end models yes CD5’s etc.

The almost total lack of penetration into studios by hifi manufacturers speaks volumes.

And studio equipment is very different to home equipment for many reason, your comment is toss. Its like riding an XC bike on a DH race, both bikes to a non cycling enthusiastic but to us very different tools.

I would get the cheapest Nikon DSLR with a 35mm f1.8

or the canon equivalent.

+1 for a lifeproof

Good work STW!

2x Sonos S3 or S5 as a stereo pair and a Sonos Sub? Mate got that is its pretty good!

Not trying to poo poo your great idea, but Sri Lanka was really the only place I have been that I haven’t thoroughly enjoyed. My wife and I have done lots of independent travelling very much like you have described (Asia, India, S.America) and we really didn’t enjoy Sri Lanka – while it has a lot it offer it is really quite difficult to go independent, very hard not to get swept into semi organised deals, really hard to describe why we didn’t like it….I will have a think! And I think a 12 & 15 year old would struggle for activities/stimulation.

But I would HIGHLY recommend Vietnam and Cambodia. A few days cycling around Ankor was a lifetime high. P

(Edit – we did Sri Lanka in mid 2011)

I had a NEXT sofa and was very pleased with it. My sister just bought one too and loves it.

John Lewis, Elys of Wimbledon or Ikea pretty much.
