Should you not gym it to help lose the weight, before you start taking all the protin stuff?

wwmnw
19-08-13, 04:27 PM
I'm at the gym 5 days a week most weeks (sometimes Saturdays too) allegedly muscle helps burn fat, not sure how I think and google doesn't help the argument as some people say it does some say it doesn't what I think they mean is lifting weights is another good way to burn calories.

Benn
19-08-13, 04:30 PM
The body can covent fat to muscle to a point so yes.

Had a couple of spare 18e looms come through the other day to use as spares. Going to make a new loom to fit to the Irmscher injection as the original was a bit ropey.

Similar, in principle...
A new front mech as I mashed the other one last week. Its amazing how a few 'levels' up the shimano range makes a huge difference on a simple thing like the front. Deore xt top swing ftw :) I was just going to get the cheapest possible but a)the are all £20 or less anyway unless going for this years xtr and b.) no where had stock of anything lower than the Dxt :)

Oooooo very nice buy and no a cheap buy either...

Keif
12-09-13, 12:44 PM
Far from cheap even though I got a very good deal, but worth it, only used it round the house and it's FAR better then the two kit lenses I have (18-55mm and 55-250mm)

Probably should have waited before buying. I'm treating my self from a bonus from work, would have cost 1/6th of the total. Only been paid 1/12th of it which works out to 1/20th after tax. Oops!

You have to hand it to Apple, painting the phone a different colour, doing a software update(which can be done on the 5) and adding an 'S' to the end and they have a new phone that the gullable i-follow crowd get all excited about & sucked into buying. Clever marketing shifts more inferior phones lol.
I think Samsung are leaps ahead of Apple and if it wasn't for the image & marketing they would go the same way as Blackberry.

24-09-13, 07:35 PM
See it's funny, i've been reading all about the new OS7 update, with all the bits people can't get their heads around/are moaning at, tried the gf's 5 with os7 and it's not like most other touch screen phones...
You swipe and slide alot of things... Rather than a press. So all apple have done is made the 7 update inline with 2-3 years old Htc/Samsungs..

Oh and saw a video some where of a 35 year old guy crying because he couldn't get the gold 5s, had to have a black one..




Does the iphail not have flat edges and sharp corners, like a err brick, the Samsung, yes that's nice and roundy.

One reason i'm not a fan of the S3/4 is its to round... I like my HTC's cause they are still a bit squared off... (but not Iphone 100%square)

Got a HTC One recently, tried that and the S4 out and the S4 feels like a pez dispenser in build quality compared... It has a lot of extra features/sensors but I'd use maybe one of those extra features and I'd much rather have the simplicity of HTC menus.

Solid block of ally definitely >> plastic fantastic S4 though!

The new One thats billet alloy? They look tastey as.

MK999
26-09-13, 06:14 PM
Yeah, only a billet alloy frame, it's not entirely CNC'd, they also injection mould with a zero gap moulding process. But it is very solid in hand, and it makes the S4 feel like a cheap toy.

Oh ok was just a thought.... Was looking at that ramp/swing things and scissors ramps on ebay but they don't actually lift the car that high so I'm maybe just going to bite the bullet and get a new 2 poster! Will finally get a progress thread up eventually! Cheers!

As mine was utter sh*te. Had to send it back to be remade. But i'm hoping they are using my mould/peice/jig to make the new ones.

I know what amp I need, just got to wait for one to come up. The thing is they use DIN plugs for the connection rather than RCA leads so I am limited to late 80's or early 90's kit. Unless I can get a DIN to RCA conversion lead.

Alternatively you could get the soldering iron out and knock one up yourself. But seeing as you go through great lengths finding OEM 80's/90's stuff, I can't see you incorporating a DIY lead. Well impressed by your finds btw! :thumb:

I first saw one in a Vauxhall accessories brochure then I found this complete setup by chance on ebay.
They were a very pricey dealer fit option for the whole model range. Nice to have a period unit but still be able to use a CD rather than an old tape!
