  1. well i certainly wouldn't advocate not being aware of cars moving around me, i guess TPTB are trying to break a decades old view that people are subordinate to cars. Really, if it is a shared space and cars have to be careful to not hit pedestrians, why shouldn't they just walk about as directed?
  2. Interesting opposition there, the copper said they used to visit for quite a few accidents, so if the pedestrians are moving easier/quicker and there are less accidents, surely that's 'better' They have done this in my (newly) local town, i've yet to encounter it is a have no need to go into town but i hear uncertainty and bad comments from family but i think they are looking at it purely from a drivers point of view. I think we all forget that we are all pedestrians.
  3. you could also start phasing it in for new staff, so all new staff get a limit
  4. that looks pretty cool, i like the idea and if i was still using a computer a desk during my personal time i might consider it. but as a tablet/laptop and media center user i'm not sure i'd get any use out of it.
  5. quite, it's not like it creeps up on you
  6. cool white LEDs can be quite stark, i've been doing some testing with home built lighting recently. I'm still undecided and may go with warm white in the kitchen, as long as there is enough light it might be more pleasant than less cool white
  7. i'm also looking for the win7 x86 driver please!
  8. yeah i'm due for new phone in May, might have to settle on an S3 though, S4 might be a bit pricey!
  9. Not everything can, or should, be an earthshattering headline. Stories like this are nice.
  10. i've been meaning to make baconnaise for a while now oh and contrary to popular belief, eating fat doesn't make you fat I've lost 2 stone eating about +60% fat the last 6 months. so...enjoy!
  11. i've always said 'is there any meal that can't be improved by the addition of bacon and/or cheese?'
  12. they need to do an attachment for standard spectacles
  13. i moisturise with extra virgin olive oil
  14. i don't undertsand how i've missed this season? I've not seen any adverts
  15. that's amazing, i don't believe it though, it some sort of sourcery, i've been convinced of this for years.
  16. i could knock these out pretty easily with my belt grinder, but it's probably dodgy ground legally
  17. yeah i couldn't believe the base camp
  18. Ha ha yeah, done LOTR day about 3-4 times now, add on an extra (guesstimated) 8-10 hours and i'm not sure it'll be doable in one sitting!
  19. yeah the lock and perhaps the blade lenth (depends on model i guess) is the issue. I carry a non locking slip knife all the time
  20. Yeah i would think the locking blade is the thing to worry about in public. Shame they're not non-lockers!
  21. Are the blades locking on most of these things? That's the only problem i can see
  22. i feel a sudden need for a multitool thanks to this thread! I already carry a slipjoint knife and i have one of my own forged bottle openers on the keyring so i'd be looking at pliers and screwdrivers as primary functions, tips on best model?
  23. is it me or are some of those computer generated...
