      OK, so I am going to start:

      As stever said:


      skip to ~8 minutes, tie them hard using that method.

      It may sound pathetic, but since veiwing this, I have never had to stoop in public.

      And, this is just so useful, no longer do I have to open up the back of the camera or plug it in to the PC, because guess what, the pics are on the PC before I can get back to it…...........

      Yes folks, two things that have changed my life….............

                Do they have to be budgie smugglers or can the poor man wear surf shorts?

                  I think i'd have to say finally getting my social work diploma in France. Probably the first time in my life i've actually been proud of myself. Uni studies in a foreign language with a new born at home and a full time job…it was far from easy but I got there in the end 😉 Life is a wee bit less stressful and more enjoyable as a result. Can finally make the most of my beautiful little man (the biggest life changer of all who's 2 1/2 already).

                        Thanks Hectic. Wow, the word "Speedo" usually strikes fear into the heart of your average englishman. Here in France i've had to get used to them (you HAVE to wear the feckin things in public swimming baths) AND the Ermintrude bathing cap (I kid you not…I did draw the line at the flowery ones though). Swimming isn't quite so appealing as a result 😞

                          In the past 12 months my life has changed significantly. I went from not really knowing what I wanted to do in school and at a Community College to studying sociology at The #4 university in the world (according to the most recent poll; only harvard, MIT and Oxford are above UC Berkeley), my girlfriend has been studying in Chile for the past 3+ months and I have been studying and reading more than I did in all of high school. Not to mention I have met and befriended many an individual from here at the IHF. You guys rock… Well, you guys and gals, gotta be inclusive!

                            Seems like the last year, for me, is the first time 5-6 running, in which absolutely nothing has changed.  My immediate circumstances will be changing soon though, as I will make another attempt at moving.  Also, I'll be making more money than I ever have before after my two year review rolls around next month.  Giles and IH will take much of it… Also Also, soon, being a bonded notary public, I will notarize better than taco:

                            hectic, that's good shit to hear man.  Swimming is a really awesome way to exercise.

                            bertoni, congrats!  Getting that degree/diploma is a serious achievement, now get a job.  😉

                            Well done all.  Keep 'em coming!

                              DEP - I did Sociology too mate at Sussex Uni in the UK. Interesting stuff though I didn't read enough and spent FAR too much time playing pool and drinking guinness among other things. Keep up the good work man.

                                Hey bertoni, you must have hung out in Brighton, my home town. Good city.

                                  No way! Yeah I lived in Brunswick Place and was lucky enough to also live in the beautiful Brunswick Square….top floor, views of the sea and roof terrace. Brighton is a great city. London by the sea...the music, the diversity, the weirdness, oh and the smoked mackerel on the beach...I still miss it after 10 years away! My sister still lives there so I get back there now and again. You still live there?

                                    Nah man, in Bristol now. Similar vibe but a bit more yokely. I went Brighton->London->Bristol - not too shabby.

                                        In the absence of expressive bandwidth I am assuming (hoping!) that was sarcasm 😃
