          House update: Still haven't completed the sale. 3.5 months now. Sposed to be moving in on the 26th but that seems like a pipe dream right now.

            Well done man. Super result.

            I've been at it myself since​ February. Honestly the hardest and most addictive sport I've ever done.

            I've ran a couple of marathons and thought I was a relatively fit person.

            But Jiu-jitsu is just on a different level.

                Unless you're a woman. Seems to be an event that starts weeks in advance then, and I redone a couple of times.

                    Stepdaughter is over visiting us from USA. Having problems with the bf, he tried to break up with her last night. We could overhear the entire thing for 3 hours with her just refusing to let him break up with her. The line of the night is "you wont enjoy being with someone else, just think about someone other than me riding your dick, you wont like it"


                    I laughed

                      I've never packed earlier than the morning of going away and it's often done about 30 minutes before we leave the house. Herself starts packing about a week in advance. It actual stresses her out that i do it so late in the day.

                        Just ringing around as Car Insurance is up in a week. Most coming in around the same give or take €20 but rang Quote Devil after seeing the ad during the Tour and knocked €150 off. Worth a call anyway. Still a poxy ripoff.

                                  Presume he must be up for parole soon if you are mentioning him?

                                  Deffo revenge stiched up for the Vegas thing. Watched a fair bit of the recent series on him. Remember our company closing early so we could get home for the murder verdict in 95. Was in America in 94 when it happened, didnt realise how big he was apart from knowing him from Naked Gun films...

                                  Completly redic how he got off on the race issue but look at them now 20 odd years later. No different. But then the rwst of us arent much better on other issues. Makes you wonder sometimes....

                                            Pretty underwhelmed every time I get a new phone. Had the OP1, OP2, OP3T and they're basically just the same thing except progressively a bit faster. Don't need storage space and have taken about 6 photos with the latest one, though the camera does seem good if that's your thing.

He comes back to stand 10 mins later asking can he bring his friend roisin who I only know to say hi. She's about 20 .Then Emma his other friend whom I know she's good crack arrives on with a puss on her so obv had to invite her.

                                                On a similar note I don't know what to do on the internet anymore for the first time basically ever. The newness of it all carried me through the first decade, then poker and associated forums, training sites etc kept me busy from 2006 to 2011 then the little affiliate business I had meant I had good reason to be on it all the time. Since I sold up that business my time was consumed with plane shopping but now that's over too and when I've run through IPB, Boards, RTE, and a cursory glance at Facebook in the morning I'm done...so much time all of a sudden. Disconcerting.

                                                        A new single/album launch (anyone remember "Thriller" in tbe early 80s?) would have resonated around the world for 6 months. Now with twitter/FB it would be forgotten in 10 days(being generous)

                                                        Sound like an old curmudgeon but it is what its gonig to be....

                                                          Reddit is much better if you actually set it up for yourself rather than just browsing the front page as a non user. They allow you have have multiple profiles which you can flick between on the one account. So I have a generic account with a tonne of forums that are of interest as one account and then a very specific tailored account of forums that are of very real interest. It creates much more specific content that is of interest to you that way. It does take some time though to setup and find forums which are of interest. The bloody thing is so big now.

                                                          I agree with the general point though that I find myself spending less and less time online. I do think Virtual Reality could be a game changer in the sense of being a complete time sink when it gets better. I haven't used it a huge amount but the possibilities are endless when it really starts improving. This is hard to explain but I was in a thing called AltSpaceVR a while back. It is like a virtual reality chat room. Most of it isn't my cup of tea but they have these event driven things every so often. I recently tried one which was a director of a film giving a screening of his film in VR and then giving a Q/A after wards. So you have a crowd of VR characters which you can interact with each one representing a person who has picked that avatar all standing in this massive space like a huge field with a cinema screen in front. Afterwards the director as a VR character did a Q/A with the audience. It was very surreal.

                                                          Google/Vive and Intel have all come together to create a wireless headset that doesn't require a phone which they are saying could launch later this year with some of the more advanced features like head tracking which could be a bit of game changer. Still the resolution/frame rate issues seem to be the thing they really need to get past to start towards is it/isn't it reality

His brain clearly wasn't working well. Poor lad, even if he did give us Palin. Although I notice he's getting the type of care that the average american can only dream of, and he was a standard vote in favour of repealing Obamacare.

Had the OP1, OP2, OP3T and they're basically just the same thing except progressively a bit faster. Don't need storage space and have taken about 6 photos with the latest one, though the camera does seem good if that's your thing.

Having problems with the bf, he tried to break up with her last night. We could overhear the entire thing for 3 hours with her just refusing to let him break up with her. The line of the night is "you wont enjoy being with someone else, just think about someone other than me riding your dick, you wont like it"

I could never lower myself to beg a guy to not dump me? how can you REFUSE to let someone break up with you? how can anyone want to stay in a relationship where the person doesn't want to be there, no matter how great the dick surfing was!

I can set the KODI stuff up on day 1 with a few tutorials etc but when the links break in a few months i wont remember what i did and end up just not using it. Really looking for a plug and play type box.
