We’re pitting the newly outed HTC One (M8) against the formidable LG G2. We know that there’s a significant difference between the two, as one is the regarded as a last-generation model – while the other is a part of the current crop. Naturally, there are going to be some advantages with the newer HTC One M8 (think hardware), but that doesn’t mean that the LG G2 can’t stand its ground and give it a good run for its money...
Far superior battery life than the Nexus 5 was what swung it for me. The G3 isn't that much of an upgrade imo (certainly not in terms of relative pricing).
Last in the charger at 07:10 and I'm at 35% now given a standard day of whatsapp / browsing etc.Last edited by Emmet; 02-06-14, 21:28.

My buddy who put me in for my new job is some client altogether, indeed all the locals seem to be. Earlier today he offered me a lift in tomorrow for my first day at 7.25am, which was quite sound as my driving licence still hasn't arrived in the post. Pain in the hole looking at my car and not being able to drive it yet.
Headed to the local this evening for a couple minerals and some pool as c'ship is coming up as well keeping fresh for tomorrow. Of course my buddy is there completely bladdered and talking pure excrement. Another friend is there molesting a short stool while dancing on the table belting out suspicious minds. This is the chap I bought my car from last week - actually works for the same company too as it happens. My hurling coach (stool guy's brother) is in there scuttered and singing away to his hearts content. He almost missed our game today as he was boozing all yesterday and predominately unconscious today.
Irish people, reasonable weather and bank holiday weekends are a dangerous mix imo. Nothing to do with the gargle obviously. Feel like such a dry shite nowLast edited by coillcam; 02-06-14, 22:37.

The wife figured out that you can exchange the Tesco vouchers for other vouchers at better mark-up, so she uses €40 worth to get €90 TGI Friday ones (or similar).
Away we go today to TGIs in Dumdum with the 3 ankle biters and order our food.
Im not one to complain, but they fucked up 3 out of the five dishes, (eg my steak arrived with two portions of onions instead of 1 onions and 1 chips). So I call over the waiter who probably left school before the Inter and we go through it. The upshot is a manager girl comes over and in fairness can't be helpful enough and everything is sorted right away.
So I call for the bill and the wife is rummaging around looking for the vouchers when the manager arrives with it and tells us again how sorry she is etc and that she has knocked off the cost of the kids drinks and two of their meals.
Upshot, still have the vouchers.One of these days I am either going to quit poker or learn how to play the damn game

took a little at 40/1 on PP when he was 25/1 everywhere else. I think the word at the time was 'it looked likely he'd make the World Cup', so got excited and just punted. Regretted it after as there was never really a point where he looked likely to be 100% for the start of the group games. So nice to see my pre-mature puntalation won't go punished.
