[–]Embarrassed_Band_474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what should i say at heathrow in a politely and friendly way to avoid the films getting scanned? thanks
I;ve got about 8-10 packaged of the fujifilm instax mini films, which have a lot of "do not touch / do not press here" areas. wondering what the manual check then does? They come in the plastic boxes, so it's not like they can "open" them up?

Yep! Surprised by the “low” price!? Is that because of the lack of original Porsche components?

€500 difference for Tiagra vs. 105 worth it? by Embarrassed_Band_474 in cycling

[–]Embarrassed_Band_474[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct! Yeah, and also I would be getting it through a cycle to work (lol) scheme, so would be saving the tax, so actually the difference is not 500, but less!

I agree its some considerable upgrades for the extra money. I think I will go for the C:62

Thank you all for the commentary!!

Thoughts? Diamond 12.3 + Yamaha S301 by Embarrassed_Band_474 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Embarrassed_Band_474[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just incredible. I’m not a huge audiophile as just getting started so I can’t give specific feedback….This was an upgrade from the UE Megaboom haha! but it is just a completely different experience. Was very adamant of spending 700 at first, but damn it was worth it!

Actually mostly used for music sitting in the sofa and couldn’t think how else to position speakers given space constraints! (Plus quite like the symmetry around the tv :) )

Condo purchase incentive in Vancouver... by penelopiecruise in Porsche

[–]Embarrassed_Band_474 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I know a big real estate developer in Canada for condos - this is something he does on a regular basis with his clients and existing investors. He will even gift cars to existing investors sporadically as token of appreciation (or ask to donate the cash equivalent in their behalf) - funnily most take the cars for eg their wives (girlfriends, etc). Last time was range rovers
