OK. So we get to the Hotel to dump our stuff at 07:00. We can't get into our room until 14:00, so we decide to wander the streets for a while. I decide that I need to sort some stuff out online. No problemmo, we'll find a Starbucks and get free wifi. We order coffees sit down and start the free wifi registration process. I have access to the Starbucks network to register my user name and password. Great, done that. Now what? Answer: "Please check your email and click on the link in the email we have sent you to complete the registration process". You dumb fucks, I dont have access to the feckin internet, how am I supposed to check my feckin email. That's the whole feckin point and that's why I'm here drinking your feckin pisswater? Jeez.
Back at the hotel now, contemplating a beer…...
LOL

bloody weather in Paris is horrible. cold like a freezer. its 5 degs outside now plus the strong wind is making it worse. im at the point of losing feelings for my face, ears and nose.
if it goes any lower, i might need the ambulance.

My advice would be to head indoors and drink red wine and eat steak frites until the weather clears up.
(really pleased that you enjoyed London btw)

hahaha thats what i did just now. went to some bar brasserie for beer and to keep myself warm. the only joy i had was, beer is cheap here.
and yes, i definitely enjoyed London. except the part when i lost my way in Picadilly Circus and ended up at Tisbury Court. scary shit man. -
5C°, windy and downright miserable weather?.. I'm so jealous of you… 9 and sunny here...
i'd rather be in your shoes mate. at least you see the bright sunshine. over here its always cloudy and gloomy but thank God no rain.
Pfft, unless its freezing rain or there's so much snow you can't see your belt buckle, cowboy up

hahaha when you come from sunny singapore like me where average temperature in the day is about 36-38 degs and probably 27-29 degs at night, you know even 10 degs is gonna shake you real hard.

In that case, please pay a visit to Canada. We say it is warm when it is -5 degrees in Winter ;D.

One thing that has always irritated me about japanese/european shit. why the hell is my zipper on the left side. When I got my barbour jacket and put it on the first time I remember pulling the left side trying to undo the zipper, thinking 'wtf is this bs' before i realized that the zipper is on the other side…... not really a big deal, but this still gets me every once in a while

just bought a iPhone 5 transparent case thinking it was only a snap back kinda case. turns out to be a front + back snap on case with some shitty plastic film at the front to protect the screen. now my screen is not sensitive and if i press too hard, it sticks on my screen and how's some splatter marks.
wasted fucking 20 € on this piece of thrash that I'm so tempted to throw it into the garbage bin. damn it!

Hells yes! That's t-shirt time, man.
Do it, Volcano. Live and learn. The more you look at it, the angrier you'll get. I think I'm just going to buy a Makr leather sleeve for mine.

Hahaha I saw that one coming…
Still ass backwards to me!William Gibson has a nice line on this in Pattern Recognition:
Wikipedia: "Gibson created the term mirror-world to acknowledge a locational-specific distinction in a manufactured object that emerged from a parallel development process, for example opposite-side driving or varied electrical outlets."
From Pattern Recognition: "Mirror-world. The plugs on appliances are huge, triple-pronged, for a species of current that only powers electric chairs, in America. Cars are reversed, left to right, inside; telephone handsets have a different weight, a different balance; the covers of paperbacks look like Australian money."

i just manage to tear that stupid plastic film out and now I'm so happy with the case.
apparently that stupid plastic film was glued to the case. so gently peeling it left no residue and made the case exactly what i wanted. 
anyway the reason why i wanted a transparent case cos i really like the back of my iPhone 5 so a transparent case would allow me to admire it at full view.

Glad everything worked out in the end. I managed to find a shop that wasn't sold out of the Makr Sleeve, so I'm stoked on that.
yeah I'm relief it worked out else it was 20€ wasted. and makr makes really good looking sleeves. love the "natural horween genuine shell cordovan" one but the price is crazy.
reckon i'd be happier with my 20€ transparent case and have the remaining 140€ in my wallet.
