I will be out on the piss tommorrow. A little pre christmas drinkies. I will be starting at 11:00 in my local. Then at noonish I will be heading into town for some pool and <A HREF="http://www.stellaartois.co.uk/ok.html" target="_new">Stella</A> . At 17:00 GMT I will be in mathew street. The point of this is that there is a <A HREF="http://www.mathew.st/webcam.php" target="_new">web cam</A> on the street. I will give you all a wave. It will have to be 17:00 as things will no doubt start to get messy soon after. Anyone in Liverpool at the time is welcome to join me and I'll get the Stella in.

Do Britain proud Tom. Get absolutely, totally and utterly bollocksed. We have a reputation to uphold here.

Sir I accept your terms. I have done all the necessary recon over the last few days and all bars containing pissed up office workers will be getting a visit from me. You have just gotta love the rececptionist who only normally has the odd glass of wine, who now has had a few shorts and a bottle of wine. I have decided from now on the collective noun for pissed female office workers is Gaggle. Let the pillaging begin.

Outstanding work sir. Know what you mean about the birds who get ratted. It's our piss-up on Thursday, finish lunchtime and just keep on going until we all end up in a curry house, very worse for wear. Pubs are always full of them, always dolled up (although some of them clearly need bags over their heads to protect us from their gastly faces). There's usually one member of our party who ends up trying to cop off with one of the munters, spirit of christmas and all that.

I will strive to maintain your high standards of drunkeness.

Yeah, you're on CET aren't you? 6 hours behind us, so you're right. I'll be watching, should be back home from work by then.

Must see if my town has a webcam somewhere......

It's a neat thing, anyway... On my sled web page there's a trail cam... That's the area I sledded last year.. I could have been on that with the sled... Too bad it's so far up there... 425 miles one way.. This year, we're not going as far north though...

Hey RC Adelphia installs high speed cable Tues. between 1 and 3 if they show up...can't wait so I can visit places with web cams and actually see something. Maybe play some online games again. Happy Seddin' bro...hope that doesn't offend any religious groups. P.S. you need to check out Men of Valor...

That's :cool: Man!!!! It'll open a whole new world for you... I flat out couldn't get along with out my cable... You must be off today then...

I'll have to check out MOH... I've heard good things about it..

Men of Valor is not MOH...It takes a marine from 1965 and uses historic locations...it is a little too close for comfort though...

When I had cable internet installed, I had the bog standard 512k for £25 per month. The 1Mb was £35 per month. Earlier this year, my provider upped everyones link by 50%, so I went up to 768 for no extra money. And now, they've upped it again. Now I'm on 1Mb for the same money. Whoo-hoo.

And the best bit, when I move, my cable provider doesn't run in that area, but I've checked the exchange and it's OK for DSL. I can get 8Mb for £40 per month, only problem is the d/l is limited to 500Gb per month!

Reply to RobD

Is it normal to limit your D/L's?

Gort, Klaatu nicto barada...Patricia Neal

Reply to TeeTewl

Man, I don't think I've got any where near that kind of speed here....

<font color=red>{FMCD}</font color=red>

Reply to RCPilot

Depends in who your provider is. You can usually (over here)get two packages for the same speed. The lower priced one caps your d/l's, the higher priced one doesn't. My provider doesn't, you can d/l to your hearts content. Not that I do, but it's nice to know that if I want to, I can.

See if you can get a screen shot of Tomsmart on that web cam. Send it into Eden for the Album... I'll see if I can get one, myself...

Typically, Britain is behind the times, but there's a massive government push for broadband at the moment. As the exchanges get upgraded, the provders up the link to your house because there's so much competition.

Yeah, I'll try that. Would be pretty cool I must admit.

They talk about it around the US all the time.. Our country is so big & a lot of it is so remote, that 56k doesn't even keep going out there.. Got a lot of farm lands & such... They talk about getting everyone High Speed Connections in the US, but I believe it's talk... Cost way too much money to Broadband the country.. There's a hell of a lot of places that don't have cable TV even...

Reply to RCPilot

Yeah, same here. When we were on holiday earlier in the year down south, the little villages are very picturesque, but there's not a chance in hell of getting broadband or cable. You could get satellite, but more than likely the locals would kick up a fuss over the dish ruining the look of the village.

Government is on another big drive to get everyone onto digital TV by something like 2010, when they'll switch off the analogue transmitters. Still a hell of a lot of people to go though.

Yes, it is a happy hunting ground at this time of year. Just off for a shower and a freshen up then to set the plan in motion.

It's about the same here then, I guess... When you go into the UP, your cell phone is dead, unless you've got Verizon.. If you've got Verizon, grab the ole ass cheeks, if you use it!!! :lol:

Spaeking about ass cheeks..... She's 3 below out there this morning.... Going to be some tight asses when they go out in that sh-t, this morning.... :lol:

LOL Those sleds pull over real hard in this kind of cold.. Especially Big Bores like my Son's Widow Maker... We don't have the snow to ride around hear either... Don't have the trailer out yet either... [shrug]

Rode in 28 below before... Belts were froze on the sleds that morning & wouldn't engage the clutch. Would have just burnt up the belts. So we took all the belts off all the sleds & took them in the motel room to unthaw.. Got the stiffness out of the belts & road about 130 miles that day without a problem.

Last year, when I rolled my sled, it was 23 below that day.. Frost bit my chin, because the windshield was gone.... Only rode 80 miles that day because of it... :frown:

For you sir, I will certiianly try. Just setting off now, if at all capable when I return in the small hours I will check to see if anyone spotted me and got a screen shot. I would like it if someone managed to post it to a free picstore somewhere and left a link.

Didn't notice a pint of Stella in your hand Tom, I take it you were in between rounds? Or the miserable sod on the door refused you permission to take it outside.
