  5. cheers boys im not exactly in the olympics, i just get all the top training facilities/coaches/regimes etc etc to give me the best chance and to fast track me because i have the "optimum body type and athletic potential" which has been proven to produce olympic athletes. so basically if i work like shit then i have an excellent chance.
  6. hi everyone, you may have seen it's my 21st birthday today but on a different matter.......... at the start of this year I saw the BBC sporting giants campaign advertised on the news. This was a campaign for tall people (over 6"3') to be recognised for their raw sporting talents to be trained up to be olympic athletes in rowing, handball or volleyball for the London 2012 olympics. The applicants did not need any experience in any of the sports, just to have sporting potential. I went online and applied in march and in august I received a letter saying I was shortlisted to attend a screening trial at Gateshead International stadium for the sport of rowing. There were 2000 people nationwide attending the rowing trials at 5 locations (Nottingham, Manchester, Bath, Gateshead and Bisham Abbey) in September. It involved 3 hours of testing, including endurance, strength, posture, height, wingspan etc etc. and it was horrendously tough!! All these results were logged and analysed to see who had the best attributes and potential for progressing to the World Class start programme. This would involve being trained up to compete on a national and international stage with the long term aim of winning a medal in the 2012 Olympics. The 2000 was to be cut to 60 final athletes who would be asked to be part of the campaign. In october I received the news that I had been selected in the final 60 athletes, and my arm strength result was the best of all 2000 applicants!!! to say i was gobsmacked is an understatement!! anyways that was my little slice of good news cheers Dan

  8. nah man, on the apple store website, you get a better discount if you are actually using the university internet (i.e at uni) as opposed to just typing in which uni you go to which you have to do if your just using your home internet. so maybe if you go into the store or ring up and physically prove you are at the uni, you get the bigger discount, as you would buying online from your uni internet??
  9. Dunno if it was a new series or if it was repeat? but it was FUNNY! had jason manford and russell howard in it. Here is the TV Catchup link if you don't have it, it is free to sign up!! cheers Dan
  10. Mate, after reading that I have the upmost respect for you. For never giving up, going that extra bit further, keeping going just one more time and then another and another. If that had been my mum, or anyone I knew for that matter, I would be forever grateful. You are one true hero mate. I know this may seem a bit over dramatic, but this poem really means something to me. And I think some of it, if not all, relates to what you did that night. Dan
  11. haha ok, so now i want the ipod touch!! im thinking that im not gonna play games much anyway, its perfect for mac users, itunes and movies whilst having the added benefit of having safari and the possibilty (with jailbreak) for google maps and mail etc etc etc. plus its got plenty of storage for my musical/movie needs. AND it looks the dogs!! and has a touch screen!!! think i have made my decision what is the kind of education discount you can get off apple because i know it changes if you access the site from your university!? can get them for bout 230 from ebay. cheers dan
  12. ok im actually being swayed towards the psp now. i just want to know how easy it is to use with a mac? can u sync with itunes?? cos if its gonna take ages to put music and stuff on then what is the point? ahh if i use ---> this <--- then i can sync my psp with itunes for music, movies, game saves and bookmarks?? also is this site genuine? so then i can get all the games and music i want? do the above require hacks that could potentially screw up your psp? im thinking i will need a couple of 8gb cards for this? Sorry for all the questions, i just want to have everything ready to go so im not wasting time if/when i get one!! cheers dan
  13. me and my gf are going to a fancy dress party on sat. theme is twins!!! p.s siamese twins has already been shotgunned!! any help>?

  17. Hi, It's my 21st birthday coming up and I'm already getting some more major presents which i will stay with the rest of my life. Was just wondering for a bit of gadgetry, the itouch or psp?? i already have a 30gig ipod, but itouch/iphone's look so awesome!!! can you go on the web with the itouch?? i really like the look of a psp as well, but i haven't ever payed on one. I travel quite a bit on trains so the games would be awesome. Do they integrate well with macs? i heard you can go online on these, but also heard it can be hard to put music and films on? plus they don't seem too have much storage? any news review or recommendations would be great!! ta Dan
