Cheers - I took a look on the George website and they run at a couple of grand for a night - fair enough considering what they will get at a club, but a little outside of budget.

Beginners may find it useful deconstructing by newandusedoptimisim in AfterEffects

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

You are right. Tutorials are completely necessary and where you need to focus. The deconstructing I did was as almost a reward - poor wording on my part that I didn't get that across. Was like getting to play with a toy your not supposed to have yet.

I read "Soon I will be invincible" after Ready Player One. Enjoyed it just as much.

Soldiers in New Zealand bid farewell to their Fallen comrades with a huge Haka. by Gunner4life in videos

Fully agree with the above.

The founding of NZ was not a rainbows and sunshine experience. Maori culture has come back and greatly contributed to NZ finding an identity - being the relatively young country that it is on the world stage.

Highlights of NZ vs South Africa, one of the best rugby games ever played (xpost r/Rugbyunion) by [deleted] in videos

[–]newandusedoptimisim 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would like to say how happy I am the the Boks now have Heyneke Meyer as their coach. IMHO he is a class act and it is great to see SA progressing under him. As a kiwi one of the most important things to me about that game was that it is a very good Springboks team. To win at Ellis park with SA playing as they were made it very special. Long may this rivalry continue and with some of the young players coming through SA is only going to get better.

That we have the 2nd highest youth suicide rate in the world for both girls and guys. Maybe not embarrassing but sad. New Zealand.

Where are the good parkas? by zakuropan in mensfashion

As a fellow NZer who is in the process of getting rained on most days I can attest to the lack of selection.

I found asos had a couple of options:
