[QUOTE=madnath619;52444291]Oi oi lad, them sick Datafest deals aye? (For real though, new starter and I couldn't even get my fucking Compass login. What a laugh)[/QUOTE]
Trust when I say most of the login shit you won't ever use. BT and EE have tried to mix systems and if they weren't user unfriendly enough already it's gotten worse.
That said, CSS is pretty cool. Loads of people hate it but I adore it haha. Proper 80's tech right there.

Aside from Apple headphones is it possible to buy in ear headphones that aren't those disgusting rubber things that go deep in your ear canal. Hate those things

Need to get myself there when I can, been wanting to go with the other half for a while now, and we only live up the bloody road. Was it enjoyable?

Another one from Manchester ay :evil:
I am back.
Well, I got back by half 4 yesterdady. I was meant to be back for 2!
I am sunburnt. I am in pain. I fell off the bike becaues I was borrowing my dads carbon fibre bike and I couldn't get my foot out of the clipless (it got jammed somehow and my foot wouldn't come out so I gave the busy road a good old kiss)
I AM ALIVE THO and I managed it. The fact I fucking made it back, ye boi!
I know I'm underwhelming as fuck saying it but omg so much pain rn so :D but thank you all who donated so much, you are the best motherfuckers out there! When I get a chance to not be hurting to move I'll post a picture of the certificate and medal

My legs have a gnarly sunburn as well as apparently as my neck but I can't feel that one so it may not be so bad.

I'm not with them but they're quite popular with students due to their free 16-25 railcard offer.
Meant to take off at 11:30 Singapore time, now back to 3:30 and I'm not even sure if that departure or boarding...

The only correct course of action is to stare directly at the boarding station until they open up. Do not blink until you're on the plane.
[QUOTE=TrannyAlert;52453756]Another one from Manchester ay :evil:[/QUOTE]
Aye, well, a scottish individual living in Manchester, or well, Salford for the past 4 years or so, great place.
We were meant to get in just before 6am tomorrow, now predicted 10am. Assuming that we can board an a380 and take off in half an hour which is just a tad optimistic. It's no one's fault but adding 4+ hours to an already 26 hour journey is just not fun. And my digestive system and I are having a fued over the coffee/plane food I've needed.
[editline]10th July 2017[/editline]
Also I've been awake since 9:30pm yesterday your time and can't sleep until I am on the plane.

You're stuck at an airport, why are you not getting drunk?
[QUOTE=spog;52454724]You're stuck at an airport, why are you not getting drunk?[/QUOTE]
I need to stay awake and alert because everything keeps changing. That and I'm with my dad and sister. In other news we've now got to wait another 3 hours
I feel your pain. I've done that flight from Changi to Heathrow a few times as a stop from Sydney. You feel absolutely disgusting
When you finally get home, having a shower and crawling into your own bed feels amazing.
[editline]10th July 2017[/editline]
The worst one for me was from Sydney to Dubai (or Abu Dhabi) to Manchester then having to drive a couple of hours to the office. That was downright dangerous.
For future trips, we changed it to Heathrow then Leeds with BA and it's only a half hour cab home.
Didn't help that I had the added stress of carrying 13kg of li-ion batteries, with a carry on limit of only 10kg, arguing at the check in desk in Sydney before finally relenting and finding somewhere in the airport to store them. The batteries stayed in Australia for several months until I returned.
