Maybe i should strap a potato cannon to my bike......

That depends on the cannon's specification, if it can't shred a big 4x4, it's not worth the weight penalty

Hmmm good point maybe i need to invest in some armour piercing spuds! And i'd rather have a heavy bike than all this chuffin wind thats around at the moment, cycling into uni is a nightmare, and for some reason round here the wind is always against you no matter what direction you are going!

I know exactly what you mean, I cycle to work in the morning and it's coming from the east, I ride home and it's coming from the west

Maybe the heavenly rule makers don't like cyclists

Nice Picture WhichDawg. Thanks.

It's 3:00 P.M. here and it's cloudy. The afternoon sun (at my back) is covered by cumulus clouds. I took these 2 pictures just an hour ago.

The promenading area at the Business Park.

Standing on the same spot and taking another shot (90 degrees to my left) of the nearby hills. The white structure at the far right end of the road is one of our pumping stations supplying potable water to our city.

Today we've had snow, sun, hail, rain, snow, sun and lots of wind. Slightly odd but it makes life interesting!

It has been an odd day.

It's always interesting to see pictures of the nice sceneries in the other side of the world. Thanks Rodie.

We just had a long weekend (Thursday to Sunday) and it is our tradition to go to the beach on Easter Sunday. Here are some pix.

They say that the Philippines is the "text" (text message) capital of the world. Communication companies are earning more from text messages that from calls. "Texting" while sunbathing.

At least the snow layed for a while where you were, I was itching to go out in the snow with my boy yesterday, but it never settled

Benner · **Reply #194 on:** March 24, 2008, 05:44:31 PM

It snowed loads again today, but again hasn't settled.

Went to see some friends in York the other night and managed to get one reasonable photo of the place:

I spent a week away in York once. Lovely place.

Roadie,

That structure on the right, is that one of the old places?

The one in the background? Its old but I've no idea what age or what it actually is but i'll try and find out

edap617 · **Reply #201 on:** March 30, 2008, 12:15:10 AM

Is that one of the old palaces (not places)? Just a typo error in my previous post. Sorry Roadie.

Roadie · **Reply #202 on:** March 30, 2008, 12:39:57 AM

Its apparently the offices of GNER (Great North Eastern Railway) And was built in the late 1800's early 1900's. This page has a little info on it.
A bbc article on it:

Found a small pic of the front of it:

I was at the World 3rd largest mall a month ago. This is the Mall of Asia located in Pasay City, Philippines. I took these pix and I want to share these with you.

Chief,

I don't know anybody in the carousel picture, I just passed and got attracted by the very colorful lights so I took a pic.

I was there the whole afternoon but I was not not able to completely go around the 4 buildings because I got tired of walking and a little bit of shopping for several hours. I presume there is a multitool shop there though I was not able to pass by it. Next time my priority will be to locate that multitool store.

Eddie

edap617 · **Reply #207 on:** April 05, 2008, 08:39:47 AM

Chief, I emailed Hahn inquiring if they have a branch store at the Mall of Asia. I got a quick response. Yes, they have a branch store there.

WhichDawg · **Reply #208 on:** April 05, 2008, 09:38:50 AM

nice shots Eddie! that is the quietest, least crowded big mall I have ever seen!
here in the states they are loaded, lots of chicas!

edap617 · **Reply #209 on:** April 05, 2008, 12:30:01 PM

WD, this mall is also crowded. I posted the pix of the less crowded part of the mall. Here's a sample pic of the crowded part that I took with my cell phone.
