It was possibly more like 20/30mins but I was trying to be modest but Choc Orange Tim Tams - damm, just like one big jaffa.

I think we need more photos people. This is after all a photo board either that or some of *those* messages. Feng, 1.3x is what you want. Nick, you know you want the 12-24mm. Spam you have a 12-24mm you need the 5d. Rob you need to go digital.

heheh that's nothign... I used to train many days a week (inline hockey) and then i ruptured my crutiate ligament... and poof... on comes 15KG :( stupid training eating patterns :(

Shame the weight isn't as easy to take off as it is to put on :( In the past couple of months I've gotten back into the healthy habits, really boring but I'm feeling better for it.

Although I would kill for a McOz meal, or even just a bowl of carbonara, or chocolate cake, or....well.....just all the yummy bad stuff *sigh*

But Monday I could definitely make.

Thanks.

[Nick C.]

When you get up behind Kinnon, let me know. I'll crash tackle her allowing to glide on over into fifth place.
Or I might just send over a friendly care package filled with them 'TimTams and extravagant dinners'. That ought to slow her down :)

[-Pleiades-]

and I'm casual, no work = no pay :(

[Ospi]

Surely if you tell them now that you might need a weekend off they would be able to organise something? I think they would respect it if you told them very early etc.

You may have the nicks but where the hell is Nick??
I've got private conversations being planned for when I'm sleeping. I've got to fend off one of them NSW types for a spot in the top five (my chances of which, by the way, are getting shot to hell!). And now I'm getting cut out of organised meets. Pretty soon I expect to see Greg outside flicking one of them air break switches to cut off my power so I can't even access the forum.

[wakko]

hahah nice Sam :) mmm time out :D

[HelenThura]

you know the funny thing. Those photos were taken on an Olympus! Perhaps it was sent to the wrong address and Olympus wanted to give Canon a message???

I'm off to bed. Nighty Night.

It is cool. Much fun to be had on a bike. But as they say, there are only two types of motorcyclists. Those that have gone down and those that will go down.

I had a boat too. Just a little tinny. You should've seen it when I first took it out. The motor was on too much of an angle due to the way it was mounted. If I opened it up the bow would go up in the air so I couldn't see where I was going.

[wakko]

Ive done that with my cousins tinny. Much fun indeed :D

What i would really like is something like this (http://yachtworld.com/core/listing/boatFullDetails.jsp?boat_id=1647029&checked_boats=1647029&ybw=&units=Feet&currency=AUD&access=Public&listing_id=75559&url=).

Those that have gone down and those that will go down.

*sigh* I cringe when I hear people wanting a motorbike.

I had a boyfriend who got his motorbike licence and he was riding somewhere one day and a taxi cut him off and he ran into the taxi. He was in a coma for weeks then his parents had to make the horrible decision to turn his life support off. He was only 19.

Ok then. You go first. I'll be there in 15 minutes.

muahahaha.......

POTN is all I'm doing at the moment, just trying to keep up!

[Nick C.]

Nice shot, Mat. I think it probably could do with a touch more light.
How on earth are going to cover two toddlers now? You're going to need a 2nd body. I suggest a ... I don't know ... a 1D!!!!

[temptation]

jeez in the time it takes to read 2 posts and click refresh - a whole new page pops up!

[wakko]

lol Nick :D the 1D spokesperson :D

Neat shot Mat.... congrats to your sister on the 2nd. ;)

Hehe ... sounds pretty good to me :)

Hmmm, yeah, I thought it may have been a little dark. I've just lifted it by 1/3 of a stop - look any better?

Well somebody's got to do it. The 1.3bies (I'm workin' on a logo!) is still only one member strong. Although we do have the support of young Master Sam.

Ok here is a thread on another forum im on where a guy sold his 350D to get a, get this, nikon D1. He went from a couple of year old, relatively current 8mp DSLR to a 7 year old 2.7mp DSLR.

Why would anyone see that as an upgrade?

Im regretting having that last can of pepsi max :confused:

Im regretting having that last can of pepsi max :confused:

caffeine is nothing! :D

[-Pleiades-]

lol, I bet. At least it's sugar free

I'm super sensitive to caffine. One cup of coffee and I'm up for 24hrs straight, even coke and pepsi keeps me awake for ages. Luck I don't like them, but i looooove my coffee, just caffine free :D

[-Pleiades-]

except if I have to get up before sunrise to drive to brissy and Feng makes me a beautiful cup of coffee with coffee art :D

It seems that a long arse day and 6 hrs of driving is my only defence against caffine!

[Nick C.]

I thought you must have been waiting for me out the back.

I haven't had a swig of soft drink since Christmas, I think.

Nice one, thanks. I'll email it to sis tomorrow :)

Night all!

I was hiding in the shadows, then I thought I'd save you the embarrassment of having your arse kicked by a girl so i left.

I'm not really a soft drink person either. I just loooove orange juice, and there's a sugar free cordial I can't get enough of either.

[Nick C.]

Only time I drink soft drink is at parties or when out since I rarely drink.

Yeah I don't drink coffee either, don't like the taste, love love the smell though. I drink tea though but other than that is water or milk. Though my friends reckons I just need to find the right bean for me.

Speaking of that Feng, when are we going to see more coffee art??
