ICT_GUY Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 £70 for the plane. plus 3 servos @£15 Plus receiver and batteries at £75 Plus engine @ £80+ So roughly £300 wizzing around with the life expectancy of a pogo stick tester in a mine field. Its not a sport for the faint of heart. Any crash at 100mph+ is going to leave nothing but a large hole and some matchwood and a very very unhappy IT support tech (it would be a bad week too forget your password).
WelshTechie Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Went out Friday night then spent most of Saturday recovering. Yesterday i got up at 5am and walked up Mount Snowdon, spent more than 6 hours walking around Snowdonia and it was a beautiful day. Had a pint afterwards then went home to watch the footy, after the footy went out for a couple more pints. Pretty good weekend for me.
cl0n3 Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Friday night got a good ol'stomp on at a rock bash. Saturday went for a jog round a bit of coast and learnt that I couldn't outrun a cow. In the evening spent too long playing Crusader Kings. Sunday had to run to a shop to make up for forgetting an older brother's birthday (beer makes it better) and then trek to twin brother who was working on his boat to bring him some grub (sucking up to him so I can thieve his boat for a bit of fishing in the hols). Sunday evening hit the beach for a bit of volleyball (still got sand in my ears)
cookie_monster Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Hmmmm looks kind of fun, my neighbour used to fly helicopters but i didn't get around to getting one. I can feel the flames in my pocket already. I might look into something that costs a bit less and isn't lightening fast to start though :-)
Edu-IT Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 My weekend was spent going to pick up a new kitten, calming the missus down, noting the address to call the RSPCA, then taking him home and bathing, feeding and playing with the little chap, and introducing him to Hex, our existing cat. Some washing has been done, the rest of the weekend was spent avoiding the heat and doing little jobs like rebuilding the garage up/over door. In between feedings. If he's 6 weeks, I'm an OSX expert. 6 inches long, 2 high, blue eyes, no weight at all, needs handwashing (although Hex is teaching him). I saw pictures on the blog and all I can say is that I hope the RSPCA do somethig.

I might look into something that costs a bit less and isn't lightening fast to start though :-) If you have never flown before then you need to get a simulator. Stick with it, then get some sort of electric trainer. That thing is a missile, and quite hard to control. Or rather if you make one mistake its all over.
Joedetic Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Friday was Alton Towers with mates from Uni. Friday night my dad came and got me and I spent the weekend at his. Walked the dogs, took two youngest of the 4 to the pub and sat in the beer garden and had dinner. Sunday felt like crap...had some 24hr bug thing that felt like condensed man-flu Went to a mate's bbq in the evening whilst everyone was sat around in shorts i was wearing jeans and two hoodies and then had to go and have a lie down. Seems to be gone today though.
MkII Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Well, as I am officially bored out of my skull, I started righting the documentation to our school phone system. And drew up plans for my future Where you off to than loalzuk? Somewhere nice I hope!
localzuk Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Where you off to than loalzuk? Somewhere nice I hope! I'm thinking about going back to the Isle of Man, where my friends and family are.
tech_guy Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 sat in the beer garden and had dinner. Sunday felt like crap... It's called a hangover isn't it!?
Joedetic Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 @tech_guy if only....my hangovers clear quite quickly but two pints of ale aren't going to cause a hangover

Joedetic Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Heh...nearest chippy to where dad lives is a 10 minute drive in his XKR (and that's flooring it!)

Elky Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 I'm hoping we've been crap because the players are saving themselves for the final! Good luck anyway but I'm hoping its me that'll have the huge grin on Saturday evening!

Inbir316 Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 or is it brad friedel The best keeper in The Premier League? - Setanta Sports
Elky Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 Sorry, I could have sworn David James was in the Premiership team of the year and was shortlisted for player of the year ;-)
cookie_monster Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 He did but it has been said by most that James was in the running and probably was the best keeper in the league (ageism that's what it is :-)) Was the best English keeper, even better than Ben Foster who has been very promising.
Elky Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 or is it brad friedel The best keeper in The Premier League? - Setanta Sports Not one mention of David James - wow, that bloke really knows his stuff doesnt he!
Inbir316 Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 i do rate james..ever since his liverpool james even though he ahd some clangers...i still think he should be englands number 1 for a good year or so more! he also should have been involved way after the 2-0 defeat away to croatia...it was a shame we had mcdonut around!
