MadManMike Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 Damn, wish I could get paid in Lego! In my happy news, just booked a weekend in Bruges, taking Red for another euro trip. My brother that lives in Germany is driving over to meet us, so that'll be cool. Bring on many glasses of Zot Blonde! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadManMike Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 I did say "at least" double You win by far, some of my friends posted 200mb down, but 819mb is insane. Also, how tf do you have 934 up? Do you live near a financial hub that processes payments or something? That's insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 I cheated its the connection we just got at work. Get about over 900 each way on a good day. Its not even that expensive its mainly because its central Leeds. I'm 'only' on virgin 100mb at home, i'd be happy with 50 really but they don't seem to offer it anymore.

MadManMike Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 I'm central Bristol, but live in a block, so the connection is shared. My friend on the outskirts gets about 200mb down. I uploaded a mix earlier and it was done uploading before I'd typed out the description, so I'm more than happy with the connection. Likewise, uploading massive photos to FB is almost instant.

Danny Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 About 2 years ago we had 3x 8mb ADSL connections. Then due to the shit cabling in the area 2 microwave links (100mb/400mb). It's only recently anything decent has become available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it was £5 a month extra and less hassle just to stick with them. My intermittent connection issues have vanished, so no complaints here. I still reckon it was a line fault so not really anything to do with Plusnet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forteh Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Picked up my first pair of 5.10s, very nearly new* freerider contacts for 38 quid. Hopefully they don't come up too small *no obvious pin divots in the sole and uppers look brand new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Got a new accountant last year, expensive at £60 per month but he's already got me over £1000 off this years tax bill and I'm now owed a rebate from HMRC, that was with only half a years receipts too! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Decent "Professionals" (in the classical sense; Accountants, Lawyers etc) aren't often cheap, but in terms of value can be worth their weight in gold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forteh Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) Fivetens arrived, look to have never been worn on a pedal, soles are completely unmarked! There is a tiny split in the outer toebox reinforcement where the shoe flexes but that's not a major thing. They fit pretty well, possibly a bit snug so no doubling up socks (but merino wool isn't that thick) and the super thick ankle collar pushes my foot forwards so my toes are in the front of the toe box and there's a finger space by my heel; be fine once I've got used to them. For 40 quid I'm not complaining edit: and holy f**k they are sticky, like bluetak Edited February 1, 2018 by forteh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 Good things come to those who wait. Been saying that to myself for the past few weeks while dating a slightly distrusting girl I met at the pub. Good things came yesterday and that's just the beginning of what's shaping up to be an amazing relationship. 2018 just keeps getting better and better.
