Re: Today I'm happy about......
Yeh, I had a temporary blockage regarding what you call that stuff what is squished between bricks and then sets as hard as stone. Grouting popped into my head and I thought even if somebody notices that I've used the wrong word they're not going to say anything because they'll know what I mean...but for the purist construction engineers and brickies amongst y'all (whilst not forgetting all the bathroom fixture technicians and DIYers) I wholeheartedly apologise for my incorrect terminology and jargon mangling ways.Il Pirate wrote:Lost Leopard Spot wrote:Well apart from the C being in the wrong place, obviously the grouting on the bricks around the C are a different colour and resolution than the other grouting, and the top arch bricks are too small for consistency, plus most obviously of all there is a recess where the windows enter the wall bit the perspective shows a sheer wall - that is physically difficult if not, given the straight lines of the brick layers, impossible.thebish wrote:what are the photoshop giveaways? i can't see anything obvious...Lost Leopard Spot wrote:I have to say it looks completely faked, photoshopped.
Tiles have grout. Bricks have mortar. Just saying like.....................

I thought it was called "pointing".

Re: Today I'm happy about......
My mum told me it was rude to point. Front of the house looks a f*cking mess now mind.
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Re: Today I'm happy about......
Today I'm happy because they found more incriminating footage of this pair of wankers. Timed to perfection to derail Gray's return to TV punditry.
Oh - possibly not safe to have the volume up if int' th'office.

The female presenter looked extremely hurt and offended by the banter taking place........FFS! Andy Gray may be allowed a comeback into a job he's proved to be very good at. So lets do our sanctimonious best to f*ck it up for him. Tw*ts
Re: Today I'm happy about......
Anyway............I originaly came on this thread to say I'm very, very happy indeed with my new '62 Telecaster my wife has bought me. So there.

It did LK, but after recent events re my health, it gives us ( my wife & I, ); a different outlook on lifes priorities etc....I don't want to sound a bore, but life is certainly worth living. Not tomorrow, cos there may not be one. If you want to do summat, do it now mate............Anyway, no more expensive than a small family salloon. .........And I feel like Rory Gallagher!!! (tho he mainly played a strat)

Which is what, exactly? Stating the bleeding, fecking obvious? You may need Andy Gray to explain simple football happenings to you, Pirate. Hey, ho!Il Pirate wrote:Andy Gray may be allowed a comeback into a job he's proved to be very good at.

Re: Today I'm happy about......
15 hours !! Including sleeping time.
I've never smoked and so can't understand but is it that addictive ? I'd have thought 15 hours was simply "I've not lit up yet today". How many a day do you (sorry, DID you do) ?
I'm not belittling it at all and I'm nor being smug at all just have no reference point to relate that to.
Keep it up, btw.
It was only last week that I saw the price of a pack of 20 and was astonished. A pack a day is £200 pm.

I did it in 2004... Best thing I ever did. Keep it up, mate. Just let the moment pass - and although those moments come at you thick and fast at first they gradually decrease, promise.William the White wrote:I did it in 2002... You will not regret it. Ever.Prufrock wrote:Jacking smoking.

Aye keep it up Pru. One of the best things you'll do. I gave up 2009.
Happy today as we chose our new car/tank and put the deposit down. Hopefully we'll get the paperwork sorted and pick it up next week
