I think he wants a Movie Camera more over the stills, but then he wants the zoomy lensey still one too, so this is my dilemma.
I think the zoomy lensey still one.
Budget about £40! OK..Go!
Just kidding, a couple of hundred max ish?
I just dont know where to start with brands let alone mega pixels. I have a Canon I think, but I dont think theyre the best. But I dont know.

To be fair, I ate a deep-fried Oreo and Snickers in NYC, so you can find unhealthy stuff anywhere you go! I think the only time I was defeated was a big burger from Chili's in VA, so point taken...!

How 'long distance' were you? Mine was US and UK. Nightmare at the time, I
remember. Wont ever be going down that road again either!!

Yeah, I couldn't find anything in a 30-second Google which was a reliable enough source to link to. I'm pretty sure he did some too.

But still, beating your wife?!?!

See my reply to Hannah. Too lazy to copy and paste it here. Although writing this has taken more effort. Damn.

Dammit, your London knowledge far surpasses mine! I need to spend more time in Soho, evidently.

gooneruk — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 07:45:34 -0000

Yeah, same here. I usually listen to my ipod on random, across 11000 songs, but the other day I had a hankering to listen to this tune in particular, and then the rest of the album. Odd how that happens sometimes.

Last week, I found myself listening to Limp Bizkit's Significant Other album. Very strange times.

Thank you Lovely. It was type it, or ninja kick him into the middle of next
week...its all just a waiting game at the moment. I know Ill come out of it
on the other side fine, a little bruised, financially stretched, but hopeful
of a relatively stress free future.

Erm, nope. 800,000 divided by 109 days is over 7,000 hits per day... Pretty big number, although it's obviously heavily skewed towards the immediate hours and days after it was posted.

You caught me. I use tags to amuse myself a lot of the time, sort of an in-joke that you only see if you're not reading me on the Dashboard. "self mocking" and "tumblr crush" are amongst my favourites...

You know, "the Dread Pirate Roberts" sounds a LOT like "the Dead Pirate Roberts"...

I really think you're onto something here. Time to go through the imdb quotes page and see what else can be played around with.

We've got it on in the office, on at least 5 TVs... So sad. The whole office just cheered when we took a wicket.

Last week, I was watching one Wimbledon match on my computer, with a different one on the TV behind me. Awesome! I'm glad it's a quiet period at work...

Arsenal, which is where the "gooner" bit of my username comes from. I've got a season ticket nowadays, which is ridiculously good fun. And far too expensive.

I'm a massive sports nut, as I'm sure you've realised. I'll watch ANYTHING that's on. Going to the Ashes tomorrow, woo!

If I had had some of that, I would have had that too!! Cant stop eating
sweet stuff today. I just ate a load of mint choc chip icecream. Im so
ashamed of myself, I should just go to bed and see if I wake up having
learnt my lesson. Chances are, I wont.

Hes 15, and its a late afternoon wedding. I think the photo shows the
colours, and loosely in style what he is going for, but I think Ill
formalise it a bit more with a linen/silk waistcoat. Stuck on the trousers
though....(cant even bloomin well dress myself, let alone a teenage boy!)

Ooh, may have to see if I can wangle a quick tour of the office! I can bring my own stickers, have some leftover from the meetup here...

I'm over on 16th Sep, for 5 nights. Then shifting down to DC and VA for the second week. The fabled girlfriend will be coming with me too.

Re: On a need to know basis... - Magimix, Nespresso, Le Cube. Want.

Emmas — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 18:36:15 -0000

Bodum French Press, thats what I have. You merricans call it that, we call
it Cafetiere because were European and it just sounds better ha...I prefer
French Press. Its French and you press it.
The Francis Francis is also very smart to look at no? I wouldnt kick it off
my counter certainly...but it just looks like it would take me more than
half an hour to master...The nespresso is a bit more 'cheaty' which is more
my style. Im all for an easy life.
I really want a Kitchen Aid mixer, but thats a whole nother conversation,
actually it would look nice next to a Francis Francis.

Hope youre well? I just kicked a big moth out of the bedroom...theyre drawn
to lights, and I keep leaving the door open (hot weather) I swear to God it
swore at me as I swiped it, it was THAT big. Hate Bugs.

Oh I cant afford one either, Hey I cant even afford the Nespresso's that you
put into the thing. A client of mine recommended I "nip down to Selfridges
and pick up one as a treat to myself" ....I wonder what its like in her
world? (as I trundle back off downstairs to stroke my ever faithful little
Cafetiere, in the hopes that one day I could only dream of being furnished
with such a luxury)

Sod it, Im adding a PayPal Donate button to my site. It shamelessly works
for others!!

So now that your machine has died a slow painful one...are you resorting to
instant? ....Oh how our standards drop....I share your pain.
