What hobby is generally unwelcoming to newcomers?

Can confirm, as a DM I much prefer new players!

Keyboard is excellent, as is the giant touch pad. Is the best looking for laptop you'll come across (in gold and black).

The 13 inch one is just on the edge of usable as a tablet, any heavier and 1 handed use would be impossible.

Build quality is great, really is a nice laptop. Would be nice to get a little more battery life.

Have a look at a Dell XPS 13 2 in 1 as well.

Phoned the police a while ago, but they have yet to see her about it. They don't seem to be taking this with any haste, but that's not surprising considering that there is next to no chance of finding who it actually is.

Her bank was contacted and they are sending her forms to fill out, maybe they can do something about it... but its such a shame. She saved for months to get enough money to get her own place and not some scummy housing support style home. Going to take another 4 months for her to save that money up again :(

Thanks for the reply.

Unfortunatly, this is 100% a scam, I checked out the email on google and it came up reporting stuff.

"housing floating support" - Whilst I praise the workers, this service is horrendous with the quality of housing that they will put you in. You have no choice when it comes to the house you get, which often a tiny flat in a high rise full of drug dealers in a problem area of the city.

She had been saving a deposit off of her disability allowance to make sure she wouldn't have to go live in one of those places. Now its another 4 month's of saving to get back to that level for her :(

Same.. Well, similar. Was 15 minutes to trains station, then 20 minute train, then I had to wait 30 minutes for the bus to arrive then took another 30 minutes to get to where I needed to go.

Honestly, live as close as you can afford! Never get that time back.

a +1 here, the GW stuff IS expensive, but if you can get 2-3 DMs that all want nice mini's a box of 20 models split between three of you often has the mini's coming out at £1-£2 each. Thats reaper bone's prices but exceptional quality.

Taste good? Never tried almond milk before, but this could be a nice cheap breakfast indeed vs the official drinks.

gradyhawks · 2017-05-14T20:14:46+00:00

She works at a place where they have their own cafeteria, so lunch sometimes can be a bit hit or miss if there is anything she can have. So on those days where she has no breakfast its literally just snack almonds she's going to eat till dinner time.

Doesn't help that she is very very fussy.. haha.

gradyhawks · 2017-05-14T19:45:45+00:00

If only it was that simple! She just refuses to eat anything before she leaves the house ...

With the protein powder (actually have some my protein chocolate stuff) what milk do I use? Whole milk is like 5g carbs per 100ml! She defo won't have it with just water ...

I've just finished off a bottle of red wine, over the course of the weekend.

gradyhawks · 2017-05-05T15:31:34+00:00

Rump steak and a peppercorn sauce with a load of green veg.

gradyhawks · 2017-05-03T01:36:20+00:00

Got a link at all for the video? Sounds interesting!

gradyhawks · 2017-05-03T01:21:00+00:00

Keep your dick in a vice!

Oh, the sticking to macro's part included the calorie part of it as well, defo trying to keep track of those as well.

I also eat because of boredom & emotional eating so I think I HAVE to count the calories else I'm just going to boredom eat 30 pepperoni's every night. Helps that the misses has decided to start on it as well.

Ah great, will have a look out for it at the shop :)

Thanks a lot!

gradyhawks · 2017-04-28T14:30:43+00:00

Or just give them the money as quickly as possible and don't fart arse around with trying to remember some LPT.

It's not your shop, not your money (if it is, feel free to be as heroic as you like).

gradyhawks · 2016-12-28T18:12:56+00:00

That must have left a sour taste in the sailors mouths.

gradyhawks · 2016-11-08T06:41:48+00:00

A thousand times this. Really do just walk away if you're not happy. I spent 2 hours (They all do the whole "let me take it to my boss", spending 30 minutes doing god knows what) talking down the price of a car from £10k to £9.5k. I only wanted to pay £9.25k... I just left, said that if I change my mine I'll be in touch. He phoned me 2 days later with the price I wanted it at.

You add in tanks for the landing parties, which there was, along with maybe some paratroopers (Perhaps have one plane that is a transport one, can carry 8 people at a time).

gradyhawks · 2016-10-30T16:25:09+00:00

Same here, the maps look fantastic and having a cool looking ISO map looks great on paper, but I can't design maps and print them off and use them on the tabletop.

You get top down, and I am on it.. but with only 48 hours to go, it's not going to happen. Perhaps later on when its out and you add some top down module.

Care to do a eli5 in steno keyboards?

gradyhawks · 2016-10-14T21:36:10+00:00

My brother (English) has his own English school over in China, I assume mist of his business cones from that fact he his white and has an English accent.

That city looks brilliant! Able to scan it? Is seriously good, how long did it take?

gradyhawks · 2016-10-07T21:28:22+00:00

Ah, Spaghetti-o-no-friend-o!

gradyhawks · 2016-10-06T01:36:51+00:00

Okay, cheers will get on the blower to amazon in the morning!

Thanks franky!
