In short, parent's evening went swell.
I gots some pills to help me concentrate and oil me joints up some.


The actual post was a lot more articulate. But **** if I'm about to retype all that.

Good to hear MB. Although the bit about the post goin' not so good to hear. So that's what those pills are for is it?

But really, I have 3 months of cod liver oil + core vitamins to grease the joints, and 3 months of all vitamins and minerals needed for perfect function.


Basically, I want lotsa zinc and pottasium, as they improve you memory- or more precisely, your ability to pull things from it. Get those synapses firing on all cylinders!




It's in build up towards my exams. That, and I'm doing 3 papers per subject a week.


Today and tomorrow I'm getting all the specifications for my current modules, and outlining what I need help with.

They have brought the prices down on the two packs, the blackout one is £29.99 which makes sense now, i didnt look at the price for the BB one.

Is that the new permanent price then or will it just be a pre-xmas offer? I've seen the BB/Longarm one advertised in the paper at £14.99.

Permenant on the Blackout set.


I'm waiting for them to drop it to £20 to £25 just after crimbo.

That's good to know - it made me so mad when I saw them charging an extra tenner for the box.

Sounds like you've got a good plan there MB - when I was in my A2 year I hardly did any revision and I think my results probably did suffer for it - but that didn't matter to me as I only needed 220 points for uni.

Is it just me or the americans a bit over the top wen it comes to watchin films, cause i jus read a thread and they sed the whole cinema would cheer and clap at bits of the TF movie, when i saw it i was like, lil gasps to myself here and there and quick chat to a mate.

ano the TF movies great and all but cheerin and clappin bit o.t.t. rite?

and when i went to disneyland i saw the animated bugs life film, and everyone was all standing up and applauding and i was like laaaaaaaaammmmeeeeeee (in my head) and jus thinkin to myself not like the people who made it are at the back, goin oooh shuks u shouldnt all embarrased and wht not.

It amuses me - but they aren't the only ones. When I was on holiday a couple of years ago in Torquay we went to see Men in Black 2 and there was a group of French students who cheered and wouldn't shut up. I can't understand the point in it really but if that's what they want to do then its fine be me (unless they're sat in the same showing as me)

Exactly no point what so ever, kinda random waste of emotion tbh, but oh wells cant stop them, and i dont think i'll be joinin them anytime soon

Americans are always over the top, but when i went to see the TF movie at an advanced 12am screening everyone cheered and applauded at the end...mind you they was all mostly tf fans so that makes sense.

The difference is those were French, and probably drunk on whatever the hell it is those bunch of snooty barstewards drink


Just gots me a fat leather strap for me guitar, and a 10ft cable too. Just the switch pedal to go, and I'm 80% ready for christmas.


School was reasonable. I looked again at my uni choices and realised they were utter crap.


I had put Nottingham, Manchester and Durham.
They all want at least 2 A!


So I dumped those and added one, so now I have Birmingham, Liverpool and Cardiff.


Have to decide on two other universities, and then send the damn thing monday. That, and a little bit o biology coursework- that's all the official work I have this weekend.


So I'm gonna finish learning Knocking on Heaven's door tomorrow. Solo and all I think.

Phew! Thank god for it not being GIS as I have that next semester. Yeah, GIS is kind of a specialist thing. I keep having to explain what it is to people. What's your degree in then? (I know you said surveying earlier but that can't be the title of your course can it?)

The overall course is called Geomatics, which is split into SMS and GIS. My degree course itself is Surveying Mapping Science. Bsc. You have GIS next semester eh? I had to do a module in it the last two years. I take it you are a joint honours student if you only do GIS in one semester. Which Uni do you go to? It's Newcastle here.

Your course sounds quite difficult I'm actually a single honours Physical and Environmental Geography student in Bradford. I'm lucky that I've had the option to do GIS - its a new 2nd year module this year and they thought they'd offer it to us final year people as well. I've got some friends at Newcastle although its quite a big uni so I wouldn't expect you to know them.

It's not too bad if you don't mind the maths and the standing outside for hours on end. I don't think Geography students can do any of our courses unless they're joint though. And I'm glad you don't expect me to know your friends, since every day, I see people I've never seen before wondering around.

When me and my friends went to see the movie, they let out a little quiet cheer when Prime spoke for the first time, and when the original transform was heard, and headbanging when the car chase started, and other assorted things, but we never did full on applauding. We did, however, wish our cars could transform as we walked through the car park afterwards. And kept talking about teh sheer brilliantness of it for the rest of the day.

It isn't just cinemas where Americans cheer like that. When a plane full of them lands, they all do the same as the brakes come on. Understandable the first time, since it was really difficult conditions (even we joined in), but the other way was optimum landing conditions and they still erupted in applause.

Probably because you didn't end up crashed into the side of a building.


(Oh black humour, how I have missed ye)

WOW, this thread is huge, good to see that you guys are doing well, sorry i haven't been here much

And what time do you call this?


Where have you been for so long?!

i have been at TFW2005, I'm so sorry

seriously I'm surprised you remember me! I'm honored

Well you missed about a hundred pages of us being pyrates. Go back and check it out. We were the scourge of the seven(ish) forums!

So I've literally just got back in from a night of trailing the shops. Picked up an Alt Swindle in Tesco (wow he is cool) and in TRU noticed that robot heroes movie characters are out which I haven't seen mentioned before.

Yargh!

Movie Heroes? What the hell happened to the second wave of G1? #shakes fist at Hasblo#

On unrelated news my mate Bob has started a long distance thing with one of her WoW crew. All well and good, she seems happier than I've seen her in a while, but by the end of the last night she was flirting with me outragiously. That's my job. Now my damn morals prevent me capitalising #shakes fist at self# Why am I such a nice guy? I honestly can't think of all that many occaisions where being a total bastard wouldn't have stood me in far better stead.

Rest assured you did the right thing as a friend and as a person in my opinion.

My Classics Ramjet came from FP today for Christmas. Still waiting on Cybertron Downshift.

You noticed we still don't have HC's 390 pages back yet?


Getting there though.



Course I remember you Knooky. But can you guess who I was without clicking on my profile or anything?



No new tf news. Just waiting on christmas money from my grandparents so that I can go on a internet tf-spree.

cool, anyway i don't have many TFTM figures but im hoping to get a few for Crimbo

What you got your eye on?


I think the movie line surprised a lot of us. I thought they'd suffer from weak joints and be quite fragile, but for the most part they seem to be holding out just dandy.




Waaaaghlord- why be a good friend when you can be a good scallywag?

Joking, I think you did the right thing.

Nightwatch, Brawl, Blackout/Skorpy 2-Pack and Reissue Soundwave

Good lucj getting hold of them mate.

Leader Brawl I assume? The reissue Soundwave seems to be in relative abundance nowadays too.

They're warming the shelves at my local TRU very nicely
