  1. Bet you love singing along too though Stephen
  2. Yeah that is a fair point too.. I can see the merit in both sides of it, I just think the era of CCTV, Data mining and being electronically tracked is a bit alarming really.. in days of old when technology wasn't as good it was done via notebooks, people tracking others and it conjured up images of the Gestapo and the like which everyone fought against but in current times its been replaced with an Electronic Policeman which many have no issue with - There has even been trials within the UK where they have used Predator Drones [ the same ones used in Afghanistan that can carry Hellfire Missiles, the same missiles that an Apache Gunship destroys tanks with ] have been used by the Police to act as a 24 hour policeman minus the Missiles obviously. I just think it's far too trusting of those in power to believe they would not abuse it and if it really did stop scumbags, why is it we still have it going on constantly ? One quote rings in my head with all this going on - '' They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety '' - Benjamin Franklin Maybe I'm a romantic at heart, but I think what he said rings true
  3. Depends how you look at it though, personally I value my Privacy very highly even though I live clean and do no ill will to others, isn't that a persons right that they earn from being a good citizen ?
  4. Aye its a good for a laugh, especially if you've had a bad day... And mate, Rebecca Black still ? you haven't got a thing for her have you?
  5. Had you grinning though Last 2 daft pics from me for the day.. For those that watch House too...
  6. Isn't he just ? But the brutal honesty of it had me laughing, she did ask for opinions, guess she wasn't specific enough - which reminds me of this pic a mate sent me awhile back...
  7. See Sick is a brilliant one Steve Friend of mine linked this on Facebook, had me in stitches... though she did ask for opinions
  8. Looks pretty cool that Rob, what gave you inspiration to design it ?
  9. Some ace work there, love the Chinese Dragon design
  10. Trust you Dave to miss the beautiful Tattoo/Ink work and notice the blokes arse
  11. Looks pretty cool that mate, you having anymore work done nature/tree themed or fancy something different ?
  12. knew it was mate, but too much fun yanking your chain about it
  13. PPE over looking good ? pfft... just think if you need an Ambulance you'd look cool getting carted off on a gurney
  14. Nah... We all like Arbtalk but thats a bit much mate what about the Offspring Album style ? '' Ixnay on the Hombre '' ? a lot of their artwork was Day of the Dead themed, just a thought mate
  15. Too true, my last few spare notes went on a Trailer for my Defender Hope to see some pics of any work you get done, though the pink latex might be a bit much as suggested by Hama
  16. Now that looks Groooooovy... Just had to with the Ash avatar mate Looks really cool though, where did you get it done ?
  17. Hope its only the done part, work in progress I might be gritting my teeth a bit thanks though, the tattoo you had done looks good, you thinking of having anymore done Janey or having a weigh up first on whether to get more ink or not?
  18. Got this done a couple of years ago in Majorca of all places, fancied having a tattoo done for a long time and plucked up the courage to brave the chair.. 5 hours later job done and the next one I hope to use my Avatar [ bigger pic ] as part of a sleeve on my right arm Sleeve Idea :
  19. Ello mate, I'm currently 13-14 stone ? [ need to get the scales out ] and 6'3 so I'm not big really, never have been but doing all this is more so I can do the job easier, yeah its still knackering and bet even the fittest people in this trade still sweat at the end of a hard day, but all I'm aiming for is being able to bounce back quicker and easier and just bulldoze through the day without paying for it the next day with some serious aches and pains. Thanks again though, will be giving some of everyones advice a try and see what works best for me Cheers
  20. Aye.. maybe were masochists at heart.. feel the burn !
  21. I've been giving a lot of these tips a bash, thanks a lot guys.. really appreciate the advice although I think I went one step better than a benchpress - Dragging a Sankey trailer up/down the driveway in the morning and evening is bloody hard work along with reversing it up in a Defender with no powersteering.. feel like I've done an arm wrestling match with Arnie afterward
  22. Yup.. that be a mountain man beard
  23. Really nice looking Defender there mate
