  1. I was two days short of meeting the basic training requirements required for a reduction in the amount of experience required to apply for my aircraft engineers licence (reduction is from 5 years to 2 years). I was actually sick in the last week of the course believe it or nor so the college offered me the opportunity to return at some point in the next 12 months to sit in for two days training and they would sign me off. Because I was in Guernsey over the Summer they agreed to wait until I was back at Uni and we would find a suitable time to do it. I hadn't anticipated how much work I would have to do on my top-up so I was a little slow getting in touch with the college. They only allow 12 months after leaving the college before the offer expires. Long story short, they just told me that there are no instructors available between now and June (when my 12months are up) so basically I'm f**ked. Absolutely 100% f**ked. The only reason I did the course in the first place is that it's the quickest way to get all your exams, experience and then your licence. Now because of this I can't apply for my licence for 5 years from when I start work. Which also means the company that I was going to be working for when I return to Guernsey won't want me so I probably won't be able to go back to Guernsey unless I change my career. I feel f**king sick. So f**king sick.
  2. I'd be up for this if I got to choose who dies and I get no repercussions. That would rule. On a semi-related note... How do you know that every time you ride your bike it doesn't result in the death of a random person?
  3. Mine's in the post, I feel bad for leaving it so late but I've been a busy bee
  4. That headtube just doesn't do it for me. Reminds me of the Leeson Bump, although not quite as ghastly.
  5. I watched this t'other day without sound and thought it was pretty cool. Just watched it now with sound and I'm really diggin' it! Nice one. Fair play for that ender too, need to film it in the daylight and lose the bitch kick though
  6. So what you meant to say was that you think the stem should have been shorter for the price you were paying?
  7. The front end would still feel too low with a Hope stem.
  8. G says he's going, but he'll probably turn up for a couple hours then delete himself.
  9. Unlike you I can't draw though, so I have ideas in my brain but I can't make them a reality!
  10. Definitely lose the rope, the carabiner through the lower jaw looks so sick, you don't really need the rope too. Definitely match up the bottle and the arcade logo for a bit of symmetry. Really cool design man, it's along a similar theme to a tattoo idea that I've literally spent the past 4 or 5 years trying to come up with! I really want one that's got a little bit of everything from my life in it. I'm a little undecided on the chain too...
  11. Mine will be in the post tomorrow matey, I already have your address This is pretty poor guys, pull your fingers out
  12. I guess that's mostly because nothing that you posted really makes any sense, so if you were trying to make a joke or be inflammatory in some way, it hasn't really worked, it's kinda weak.
  13. To top it all off you have a totally tappable wife too. Winning.
  14. I feel like such a fraud getting positive comments for this video! I promise to make something with more riding in soon!! Yeah it's all filmed in London. DO IT Thank you, I hate the song too! Sorry!!!!!
  15. Had a couple clips I didn't want, put them on a timeline, picked an original song. If you like awesome videos you'll hate this. http://eightypsi.com/
  16. Hopes and dreams. And false promises.
  17. I don't understand how you can get a mortgage for a property that isn't yours/won't be yours and get the house at a discounted rate that doesn't apply to you.
  18. What if he marries his Dad?
  19. I don't know nothing about anything but it sounds dodgy as f**k to me! If you had the cash, you could gift it to your parents and let them buy it, but since the discount will only apply to them, there's no way you'll be able to buy it yourself. I doubt you'd get a mortgage on the house since the house would have to belong to your parents for the discount to work, which means you'd have nothing to secure against the mortgage, unless you already own a property and remortgage it?
  20. Surely comic sans would be worse! What type should we use?! :'(
  21. Nicely done, Mark. I watched the whole thing... Out of interest is Vasek's tomfoolery well received by the more traditional comp riders and/or the comp officials?
