Awesome thanks man Might hit up Plymouth as they have a few dive shops and go and see whabbedo.

I have seen Tusa kits when I've been looking around, although when you know nothing it's hard to guage if it's complete dogshit or not. Good to know you've had good experience with them. Also seems like Atomic and Cressi are fairly decent? Yeah split fin seems to be the ones to go for by the sounds of it. Do you buy your booties seperately? Are fins sized just like normal shoes? i.e I take a size 10 shoe, i take a size 10 fin? Yeah I read about the facial hair and vaseline trick, will make sure I'm clean shaven when I go for a duff mive.

Not a fan of the hump but the rest looks pretty bossy. I like yellow on matte black.

Not anything to write home about, nah.

Hello all. I'm off on holiday in August and wanna go snorkelling. I went last time I was there, but tried like 3 different masks and they all leaked So this year imma get a better one so it optimises enjoyment. I'm guessing the best thing to do is to go to a shop and try some on? Any good ones in the south west? Can anyone school me on snorkels / fins / masks? Thanks!

Thats a bit harsh, she's a solid 5. #rofl

A Meta, pretty recent mainly sold in America but think tarty sold them for a while. http://www.metabike.com/trials.html

Ahhh gotcha

I might be going nuts but who has said anything about drilling out snapped drill bits?

If theres space on the inside of the frame and you can weld / know someone, a blob of metal on there for the cam to butt against would also work (especialy if it's already been welded in that area).

^ Yeah that, or if you can't be arsed tapping it, a nut and bolt would also work.

No dumb dumb, the 'just pulled out the headphones'. Also, do you not care that you broke someone's new bit of electronic equipment and you're trying to look for a shitty temp fix rather than being a man and getting it fixed properly?

I am a headphone jack enthusiast, and can tell you now there is no other option but to send it back for a factory-fit replacement.

Can you clean the office or something? Cruise about cleaning mirrors / windows/ dusting and talking to shawtys?

Cool, yeah I have an octavia that I bought on 92k miles and it's now on 170k and its still pretty faultless although now getting a bit long in the tooth (an 03) and little electrical issues are starting to arise. Wanted to keep an eye on a car for the future, looking at: Octavia estate Passat estate Seat Exeo estate Superb estate A4 / A6 estate All in some sort of diesel, the quicker the better for around £5 - 7k.

In general, and speaking about 2005+ VAG diesel estates, better to go older with less miles or newer with more miles? Whats likely to last the longest with minimal maintenance?

I want a bit of snow to try out my winter tyres

Just to keep your thread alive Dann.

OK: 1. Don't write off plenty of fish. It will probably be better for you than tinder as you only get like one shot on tinder really, and its hugely looks based. (no offence, I dunno what you look like). There are LOADS of girls on there. Yes, some are whales. However, you don't have to look very far to find a good one. There are plenty of girls into the same stuff as you, you just need to find them. You spend all day on a computer anyway, get your sis to dress you in what she thinks are your best clothes and get her to take some pics, upload them and spend 10 mins writing about yourself and thats it, sit back and see what happens. 'Like' a few girls on there, search for 'rock music' or whatever. Opens up your search area to miles rather than just one bar. 2. You have a sis - How old is she in comparison? Is she cool and not as socially awkward? If so, perfect. Go out with her, get her to dress you up, go over to groups of girls with her and intorduce yourselfs, be quick to note she is your sis (otherwise they'll think you're going out) and go from there. They'll be less threatened with a girl there, and probably think it'd cute you still hang with your sis. 3. Does your sis have any friends you could get to know better?

Ok well each to their own, as long as it works

Nope.. Nah I sorta am, just when you describe what you do its potentially better to discuss the 'Danny Mac' side of things rather than the 'dressing up in lycra and jumping on some pallets' side. I think its good to discuss riding in general, although can just be easier to say bmx or mountain biking for sake of argument.

Also, firstly prepare to be knocked back a few times. Think of it this way: I'm sure at some point girls have come up to you and said they fancy you and there may not be anything 'wrong' with them, but you might turn them down just because they arn't your type or you have a gf or you're out of town or you simply can't be arsed. The same could happen when you ask. Don't think of it as a personal thing against you. Girls are just like boys, they like to be hit on, they all want sex and although they will have their guard up at first, you'l be able to slowly chip away at it until you're swimming in her vaginal juices. And whatever you do, DO NOT mention trials. Good luck!

Plenty of fish / tinder. Mutual friends is key. Spot the girl you like. Start chatting with one of her male friends. If all goes well he might introduce you to the girls, and may even say "this is Sandra, she is Brians gf' then you'll know not to persue. Point being, if one of their friends intoduces you, you might look like less of a rapist. Sounds like you're more into rock than a lot of people, try and target rock clubs / bars or like you say, the bar at a concert (is a Killswitch Engage gig a 'concert'? Interesting). Where do you live? You sound French but live in Ireland?
