Pleased to see you didn't go for the one with the colour LCD screen. Seems so... excessive. Definitely a waste of money for what it is.


What you mean it's not beneficial to have an LCD screen somewhere you never actually look? Personally as a laptop use I don't have an external keyboard, bought one of the aldi keyboards when my old acer lost a few keys and honestly normal keyboards feel freaking weird now laugh.gif Still hard to beat a mechanical keyboard.

From the Club BCF night last night. I think it is time to buy a new rod, reel and a few hard body lures to chase some jacks.

Official Galaxy S2 extended battery. OMG it's soooo much better than the crappy standard battery. Normally I have to charge it during the day, but it's been going for nearly 24hours and is still at 30%. They should have came with these as standard.

Don't forget by not including it, it allows them to then get people to buy the extended battery for an extra cost... Don't really get the big deal about a few mm's myself, a bit like apple raving about having the thinnest phone by 1mm, as long as it doesn't have proportions more suitable for a brick i'm happy enough..

If Samsung gets any bigger it will no longer be "made for humans" as humans don't have hands large enough

Gorilla glass, for gorilla hands. Samsung - made for the less evolved who need a smarter phone oopsie.gif

I'll have to check out the size difference in person I think.
I usually carry a spare around because I run so many things at once and smash the battery.

Brings the shallow bit at the back out flush with the slightly thicker bit. Gives the camera lens a bit of extra protection too as is now sits in a little from the back case. $50 well spent imo. My old battery now lurks in my glovebox as a spare.

What is the point of a phone if the battery will only last half a day?

I would never get a phone that I couldn't trust to get at least 48 hours out of.

The trade-off of picking a smart phone over a basic phone I guess.

Oh yea, forgot to post the new daily. New wheels should be here in a few weeks biggrin.gif

Looks rather uncomfortable if you ask me dunno.gif Hate wearing formal shoes, last time i wore a suit i wore my reeboks and hoped nobody noticed, last time i wore formal shoes they cut like a bitch.

Protip: they noticed, Zimma.

Learning how to dress properly is part of becoming a man.....a good selection formalwear is almost a rite of passage. Every self respectable man should be able to look dapper.

Comfortable as hell-all soft and pliable like.
That's one big diff you notice in high end formal shoes (those cost around 500 bucks)-they are just a hell of a lot more comfy.

I am generally not a big fan of formal gear when not at work (I am the slobbiest dressed kunt around)-but my job really doen't give me the lattitude. First impressions are important in this industry, and you have to be well presented.

Yeah but being the year 12 formal at least there was worse I guess, some showed up in dunlop volleys...

Eh formal dressing has never been a forte of mine, hate feeling constricted and don't really rock the suit particularly well. Tend to look awkward more than dapper to be honest. Even then I was rather inspired, black suit, black shirt, black tie laugh.gif Second the formalities are over, tie off, sleeves up, jacket thrown over a chair.

Fair enough, I had to borrow a pair of my brothers, ended up bleeding by the end of the night from my ankles... I avoid anything that requires formal dressing to be honest, closest i had to a job that needed it was a bank job with shirt and tie.

Pretty sure I still have as much respect for myself if I'm wearing skate shoes or $500 gay shoes.. Not that I would ever waste half that money on any piece of clothing. There are more important things in life to spend money on.

On Topic.



Couldn't help buying this one as it looks identical to mine smile.gif

I do not disagree that an old fashion lace up shoe is the best choice in any and all formal occasions. My argument was that a slip on loafer bridges the gap between formal (suit, pants shirt blah blah blah) and semi-formal (jeans, jacket etc.) nicely and I would be lost without mine. I've had them for nearly 6 years now and I hope they never break.

But still, do want. They look exactly like a pair of Julius Marlows I have, but I'm guessing not from the price. Prada?

Gucci.

Prada is for poofs.
