Don't think there is one. They stick to meals, if you want a burger on its own they will rape your wallet.

Amateur move to put a Wispa in a fridge. Its the equivilant to putting a curly wurley in a fridge.

What?There s caramel in a Curly Wurly they are no way comparable.Wispa from the fridge is the nuts.

Spoilered that massive pic there Cuchullainn. It took me a bit of scrolling and searching to find the wispas!

Sorry about that 5starpool, Im having trouble lately uploading pics but only here-no problem on boards.But thanks for the spoiler as it was huge!

@ Rounders, that 'Journey of a Joke' series you posted was brilliant.

The host lad Dean Scurry is a good egg isn't he?

Thought Fabu was hilarious. I've a major crush on Tabitha, think it's the way she speaks, so sexy.

Cheers for posting, great stuff.

Here if anyone's interested.

I cant see any such option as 'min upload % to 0'

Your only cutting upload rate to 0 when its fully downloaded for yourself.

It's on the queuing tab -> Min ratio %.

And then tick the limit when ratio reached box.

Cheers Lazare yeah its the best ive seen anywhere in any form for a long time, thanks for that. Im in love with Tabi!. Dean is a good sort despite his viscous look!. Good sets with him in Moore and Parnell st. Great the way he is able to just go up to people and connect. He was a good fit within this group and you could see he was proud in what he was helping build.

I guess the great thing is it has so much soul, its actually very little all about the performance more than the individual in each case. I love their thoughts away from the stage too in particular Fabu in Finglas, and Tabi. But loved way Dil sums up her feelings so easily and effortlessly, you cant not love Dil.

I happened upon it because i love the sound of Dils voice and the way she condenses her sentences. Im always blown away by migrant people who speak english better than we do. So i just googles her name and happened upon journey of a joke.

Ok i take it back, i exaggerated for emphasis. In the cold dim of night i admit a curley wurley and a wispa in a fridge isnt the same thing.
However i dont think a wispa is helped being in a fridge as it interferes with the way the bubbles react on initial mouth contact. Its best kept in a cool dark place other than a fridge. A dairy milk in a fridge is to be supported gets a walk every time

I only learned half way through that it was filmed in 2011.

Seems Fabu has carved out a good career in comedy since.

Yeah Dil is great, love her show on NT, used to listen to it on my way to bar work. I remember when I first heard her on air having a feeling of pride that such a minority person had a prominent position in the media.

I remember listening to George Hook one evening and he made some comment about Dil and fellas, something like 'Dil will be out on the town tonight chasing guys'
I texted in informing him that she's not too fond of the youngfellas. He didn't read it out.

Dil is so warm and expressive its no wonder she is able to project this. Fabu still in the comedy is he!, i watched several more of the company that filmed this 'dctv'(Scurry calls it 'dole tv!') UPC 802 btw. Didnt realise he went on in comedy. Tabi is so vivacious she'll be ok
Love the scene on Moore st when Tabi is talking to the stall seller female equivilent of Noellie from Love/Hate and she suggested to the stall seller that she could do with botox for her lip and the stall seller says ''The cheek of yeh''!!!!

If you are not unlimited broadband i would advise deleting the film from utorrent as soon as its downloaded otherwise other p2p users are uploading off your already fully downloaded file using up your bandwith so always a good policy is that when you hit 100% completion to delete from utorrent, dont worry the downloaded file will be still in your downloads folder.

And just to be sure in utorrent limit the amount users can download/upload off you in options/perferences/bandwith/alternate upload rate when not downloading kbs/ps to a really low number like 10 but not '0' as zero is unlimited. In short what this means is that even if you forget to take the torrent off utorrent after 100% completion other users arent eating into your monthly download/upload limit.

You gotta give something back if you use torrents can't just hit & run, in Transmission you can set it to stop at a specific amount which is handy. Also it's a quid pro quo the more you give the more you receive. Obviously on a limited bandwidth you gotta judge that for yourself, that's why a filelocker is good for that reason.

Who's the 2:15 lad? Fairly certain he's familiar. But the vague memory thats been awoken says he's familiar from outside poker.

Only know him through poker always seems like a nice chap, think his name here is punterbren if I remember correctly.

Yay, finally got the Beemer over the NCT line (test was at 9.40pm, wtf?), not before pumping €1000 into it.

Should be a good market for it now what with the new NCT/penalty points rule coming in.

Gonna put it up for about €2500.

People are getting equal back when i am downloading just when the film is 100% the drawbridge comes up. The algorithms make it fair

I just finished the last episode of the 2nd season of Peaky Blinders. I thought with the first season there was a gulf between the ambition of the production values / direction and the quality of the writing, the latter letting it down.

But the second season was absolutely brilliant in all ways imo. Weinstein company pumped money into it, writing was a whole lot better, brilliant acting (Tom Hardy and Cillian Murphy outstanding), good plots.

Highly recommended.

The trick with a fridge Wispa is to hold it in your hand for about 45/60 seconds before the initial bite.
Don't want to get too scientific here like some,but the chemical reaction from the heat breaks down the outer bubbles while leaving the core ones hard thus ensuing the perfect bite.
I think the formula for this first bite is better known as E=mc2.

Played my first game of 5-a-side for over 2 years last, in fact it was the first exercise above a light walk I've done in that time (cheers for the invite mdoug)

Didn't realise it was a competitive game as opposed to a kickabout until after I had agreed to pay. Despite doing next to nothing, I feel like I've been hit by a bus that then dragged me down the road this morning.

I had to get physio last night on my back/hips. Not joking when I say she laughed at how stiff (ooh matron) I was. No flexibility at all. Gonna be a long road back.

Gave up the ball though.

Don't give up the ball, although unconfirmed reports suggest that your old team won the league...after you retired during pre-season.

Not that the two events are linked in any way of course
