It's just sports I'm really s**t at, as much as I did try I just couldn't do any good at anything in P.E.

How about a 3 legged race...

For this race it will be stipulated Marcus has to be bound to Dan

And Marcus will still try his best to hide from Dan.

Haha...3 legged race participants are as follows:

Team 1 - Davie and Lee
Team 2 - Dan and citaro5284 (work buddies)
Team 3 - Me (running after Dan trying to talk to him while citaro5284 drags him to safety)

Not to boast or anything, but I think I could enter a three-legged race on my todd.

We're missing an event here... The Malarkey Marathon.

God, no-one else would be up for that one!

Maybe not the Malarkey Marathon but certainly one based upon the route of the 638 - that has to be around 26-odd mile if not more!

The Malarkey Edurance Run...

Newcastle-Carlisle and if there was quite a bit interest in it, then extend it to Gretna and Dumfries

Just make sure it goes via The Galleries!

Trying to view Flickr on my phone but it just doesn't want to load. Anyone else having problems?

Can't view the Flickr Central app properly through the Sapphire WiFi on the 7.

Is it not blocked?

(25 Feb 2015, 9:05 am)Dan wrote Is it not blocked?

Possibly, all I can do is view the photos and see the activity from when I last looked at the app (last night).

No idea why the main site doesn't want to load though, every other site will.

That used to happen with me when I used Arriva's Wi-Fi on the Sapphire services. Instagram, Flickr and YouTube were all blocked.

I can normally access the main site but it just won't load today, normally blocked sites come up with "requested site blocked" when I tried to access YouTube before.

I am on top form this morning - went to the Sainsburys Local cash machine to get £20 out and almost walked away without taking the money!

Done that myself quite a few times lol

Haven't taken one shot I'm happy with this morning because of the sun, the camera doesn't want to take photos when I want it to, it doesn't seem to like LED destination screens and everytime a bus turns up a **** load of cars and trucks come at the same time.

It's driving me insane!

What settings are you using?

(25 Feb 2015, 10:43 am)Dan wrote What settings are you using?

It's on sports mode and that is as much as I know.

(25 Feb 2015, 10:46 am)Jimmi wrote It's on sports mode and that is as much as I know.

Scroll the dial on the top of the camera to 'S' mode, and use the left/right scroller above the arrows on the body of the camera to change the shutter speed to 1/320 or 1/400. After this, press the 'i' button just right of the viewfinder, and go to the option with a +/- sign. Press OK, then bump up the exposure compensation a bit. Try +1.0 first, and move up a bit more if you're still having issues.

To add what Dan has posted. If you shoot raw, you can also use CameraRAW in photoshop to compensate later, due to the massive amount of info this format gathers.

NO, YOU CAN'T UPLOAD PHOTOS OF SAPPHIRES TO FLICKR VIA MY WIFI! MUHAHAHAHA!!!* 

*if you can get the blooming wifi working

Spent the last 3 and half hours amending my covering letter as my Advisor did a bad job, 3 of the 5 Paragraphs which talked about what I did in IT at college were repeated but were worded differently and made no sense, good job I noticed otherwise my application to become an IT Tutor would have been unsuccessful, following a lot of editing and tweaking I now think I have good enough covering letter to therefore go ahead and submit my application.

Would be happy to proof read it for you if you need it? Just drop me a PM.

Still got to do a Paragraph on how I would transfer my Skills/Work Exp which I have gained into the role, which I am going to do tomorrow, but as long as I submit it by Friday the I am alright, ill copy it over for you to have a butchers via PM.

I got in trouble with the Pollis today, that is all I am prepared to say, absolutely annoyed at myself, I was not thinking straight and my head was somewhere else...I dont think I have thought rationally since September, and the last few weeks have been a bit if a blur

Still, the opposite can be said of what I am getting myself into, started to go to the drug clinic in Seaham to deal with my addictions, I will get the chance to have counselling and be able to work through my recent dangerous and unpredictable behaviour and what is causing me to overstep the mark at times

Just remembered something while listening to some music...

When I got into school at 08:20 this morning, I made my way up to the library with a friend. When we got to the top of the stairs, one of the notorious 'badass' kids was striding down the corridor kicking a bottle of Coke along with him.

We sat down in the library at some of the computers, and he and one of his friends sat at the other end of the computer-'zone'. While we minded our own business, we were called 'cunts', 'bastards', 'inbreds', several others...then I received the remark 'hew, Cam'ron, see that puff owa there ya see tha way he crosses 'is legs leak a fuckin' queer'...I was not sitting like a woman before anyone asks, it was where I had one foot resting on the knee of the other leg (if that makes sense).

I wanted to kick the shit out of the little trampy gypo shithead scruffy bastard muthafucka.

He's 'one of them' (the gang I've mentioned previously), that's the problem.

If I say as much as a word in response I'll get a stabbing for it...
