    No window shopping for me Stheno. I'm more of a browser.

    Browsing is better than window shopping because when you browse you can get up close and touch and make sure it feels good to you before you buy it.

    We're talking about shopping for jeans right? ;)

    One of the girls was really feeling the heat and took off her bikini top. I spent the next 2 hours keeping a close eye on her - you know that she wouldn't get sunburnt. She seemed fine when the missus came down to tell me that my lot had been waiting at the apartment to go out for their dinner. That was my good deed for the day. I'll probably head down early in the morning - doing your civic duty isn't as bad as you'd think.

    fair play, as a pasty ****er I'm always appreciative of people keeping an eye on my sun protection status. Its good to know there are heroes in the background like yourself, ready at any stage to drop in with some advice and a reminder to re-apply.

    I'm heading back down now in 10 mins. There'll be no one burned on my watch. There's something strangely hypnotic watching 2 Italian sisters playing an impromptu game of volleyball in the pool. Funny thing is I wouldn't even be a big fan of volleyball normally....

    Nearly got killed on my honeymoon in corfu as we were on a boat cruise with a bunch of Italian girls who decided to do go topless the whole journey.... All I'll say is I got sunburn on my tongue

    I'm on a 10 game losing streak in Madden 15 head to head.

    Surely a good omen for the Draft...

    You guys playing on PC or consoles or does it matter in terms of joining games?

    Even if it doesn't matter answer though - It's good to know who the dirty consoler's are.

    On a seperate note, watched the end of true detective season 2.

    To my mind, the last 3 episodes rectified a lot of my concerns and the last episode was unflinching. It gave away too much at times with the tone and certain scenes made obvious who was and wasn't going to make it, but I still like the overall season as a result. Loved the music too, from Cohen's intro and beyond.

    Certainly not the instant masterpiece that was the first season, but I think it more than warrants a final season. Even Vaughan who I thought was a bit all over the place, was very strong in the final episode.

    The last episode was just awful, sorry.

    It wasn't subtle at all and at the usual story pace progressed things a little fast
    but I liked the way the mexican deal and the kid turned on the relevant protagonists. The method it was done was fitting to their characters, especially the diamond suit.

    My only complaint is that it maybe tried too hard not to be a happy ending for not particularly happy characters. Probably would have been more satisfying had one of them pulled through,

    Why would they do that...? it's not loss making, is cashflow a serious problem?

    I think usually it's because someone can't be arsed doing the paperwork.

    I just managed to wipe over 400 photos off my phone tonight...

    All the holiday ones and other communion/confirmation ones also.

    They were saved direct to the phone (galaxy s5) and not to an sd card. Don't seem to have been backed up to Google or Dropbox.

    Am I fcuked here or can they be retrieved?

    Judging by your recent posts, they were all taken in the last 48 hours anyway.

    Having had people in my company in a similar pickle, they still exist in some format or another.

    And now for something completely different....

    Whatever happened to durkadurka? He was one of my favourite posters. One of the few that genuinely made me laugh. Hopefully he's still here in some capacity.

    I think perhaps the wife deleted them... and you're fcuked anyway! ;)

    Get the Google Photos app and set it to auto backup. Never have to worry about this again.
