People can look at you funny if you don't possess a set of Technics 1210s turntables. They are the benchmark for all others to follow.. Whatever you do re: budget etc.. for god sake don't get belt driven turntables, get the direct driven ones - they don't break as easy and are waaaaaaaay more...

Back in the old days we used the Rogue Trader to write our own Warhammer 40k roleplay.. bloody good too. (Mixed in with a bit of Space Hulk slot-together corridors and an assortment of citadel miniatures to represent the group on the table).

I picked up a 500GB Buffalo external drive in Hong Kong's Golden Shopping Arcade recently.. I think it was roughly 1000HK dollars. I thought it was a bargain and has worked a dream since then :)

A week last Tuesday, I had a blinding steak and chips.. can't wait to get that again :P (the girl who served it was pretty hot too).

How are you sending the numbers.. I remember if I was in Australia I had to prefix 001144, in NZ its 0044, from the US it was something like 01144 for the UK etc.. probably its the prefix and a simple '+' at the beginning of the number is probably not working(??)

I'm on Vodafone NZ and can txt internationally (regularly txt UK, USA and Australia) - Squidge is right you have to have it enabled on your account.

Its easy to fall in and out of a scene, especially if the hardware moves on.. I was heavy into the GP32, but since it packed up , I have an NDS now.. I still like the Off topic section of this site, always some useful info posted about gaming or net related stuff..

Its true that twin turbo'ed Supras go 180mph - I should know I was in one on a track day at Silverstone back in 1997. There was a Top Gear live show and it was sweeeet :P

Heres some pics - mine is the Honda, the other is my mate's Kawasaki GPX 250. (Which feels like you're sailing down the highway in a canoe.. e.g. when you turn the fairing doesnt [??])

First time out on the bike and it kept stalling!! Turns out there was hardly any fuel in the tank :rolleyes: Not good when you're at traffic lights and everyone is beeping at you!

QUOTE sniff i miss gimp and lou I thought Drumaster and Aquafish were quite funny - especially that whole period when the GP32 scene had a huge flame war about something I can't even remember. Also the drama with Pirotic's emulator... :P Although Gigas turned out to be pretty good.

Blood Diamond - surprisingly good (Di Caprio's accent is pretty funny) Sunshine - again not bad although bit of a rehash of Event Horizon (which is itself amazing) Bladerunner - hadnt seen for years and now got the whole unicorn thing Good Morning Vietnam - classic ("Its hot & wet, great if...

lol - I've seen one of those 1400 Hayabusas recently - they're just plain nuts! I just Googled TDM900 - it looks like a nice bike. Is it more stand uppy or crouch-over-the-fueltank? Eventually I hope to progress to the R6 - I rode one once and fell in instant love.. :P

I ended up with a Honda - a VTR250. I think it was the V-Twin power that did it for me!

The difference in price between a 10 year old bike and a new one isnt that great here in NZ (in the 250cc class). Good tips though - I'm not going to get a sportier bike (like the Hyosung) - as you're quite right, the chances of me stacking it are quite high. Maybe after a year I'll be ready for...

Hi everyone, thought I might try a question on here - since all the motorbike forums out there seem to be drowned out by fanboys etc.. this place might be balanced. I have a limited budget but can get only 250cc here in NZ. Anyone have suggestions? I thought maybe a Kawasaki Sherpa or Honda...

I work in IT consultancy, and you can be having leaving drinks one day for someone who then shows up the next day at your client site from a rival firm :P

If they're a prestigious company, get them to pay for your degree! If they're interested in you then they should also have an active interest in up-skilling you as well.

Are there any screenshots of this thing yet?

I've been to all three locations and they are all amazing. Just beware that Amsterdam are cracking down on the Red Light / herbal areas right now. My suggestion would be to go to the Full Moon Party - as thats where I'm heading :P
