Black~ I'll direct you to a quote by Ayase in a conversation we were having about Patlabor yesterday :lol:

If you do watch Patlabor (and I highly recommend it - my favourite mech show by far) then I'd suggest you start with the original seven episode OVA series. The films are a lot better if you've watched that first as they presume you know the characters. It has a very catchy opening song too! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0N2OFJ4ghQ
And after that there's just the 47 ep TV series and 16 ep New OVA series to go!
There's a very good review here if you're interested: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/buried- ... v-and-oavs

Well, my insomnia might as well be useful. :wink: Two places you can get the Original OVA series R1s: YesAsia (£16.70) and Amazon (£29.50)
I can't be sure but I don't think it was ever released over here on DVD. YesAsia still have all the R1 Patlabor TV boxes at a reasonable price too, it's worth bearing in mind they're OOP now.

*Door gets blown off it's hinges and Voddas appears in a shirt and tie*
Morning Everyone! Feeling rather good today. Slept like a baby and the sun is out too.
*Inhales large amount of air*
Ah yeah, that's the stuff. I trust everyone had a good night?
I spent most of it watching House with the misses (VERY good series). Then cought up with Naruto Shippuuden when she went to sleep. I'm liking the fact the storyline is flying along at the moment. ^_^
*back-flips onto couch and whips out a coffee and NEO magazine*

Ah I see the corrections now. Make sure you DO say bye twice boy. :twisted:
I went to Tenerif with 8 other lads when I was 17. Was an awesome holiday but also the worst. I saw a man get stabbed to death whilst I was out there. The scariest thing was that I'd spoken to him moments before. Didn't know him but we'd both lost our mates at the time and we were both English.
Out of no where, a bunch of Spaniads run over knocking everyone out of the way and start beating the stuffing out of this lad. I never saw it but whilst they were punching him, one (or more) of them was repeatedly stabbing him at the same time. He died shortly after on the same spot he went down on.
Police hardly even spoke to me either, was like they didn't care? Basicly I walked back to the hotel not feeling all there. When I found my mates there I nealry beat the crap out of them all. I was kinda upset and being alone at the time didn't help.
Besides that tho, it wa a freaking awesome holiday. Sorry to lower the tone there Tachi. Tenerif is an awesome spot for cheapness and partying however make sure you don't wander about on your own in the early hours.
Holy crap! I went on a bit there didn't I

I've been there before, just looking for a place where things aren't crazy all the time ( we do want to sleep occasionally)
but also no places where its dead, or family orientated.
Sorry to hear about that mate :/
knowing the worlds mentality right now, he was probably stabbed for a stupid reason like "he looked at me the wrong way" :/
Wonder how much getting shot hurts :S
On lighter notes,
i have the following years planned out,
feb i finish my diploma, pass my practical driving test, then apply for a 9 week exam for the A+ whilst sending out CV's to various london based technicians departments.
then in june and july (ish) im off to teneriffe with laura and then egypt with the family,
2010 rolls around and hopefully should have a car, stable job in a I.T dept, earnin myself a nice weekly packet
then me and the lads are off to teneriffe again (yes we all love that iseland) laura will most probs be coming with, and then towards the end of the year im packing up my job, and me and the lad and lasses are off globe trotting before we have to settle down somewhere. im not sure if i'll come back to england...by then the possibility of civil war could be very real across here.
in which case im off to new zealand or the promised land (japan)

I see you have everything planned out mate. I hope it all goes as planned for yo too. I really need to get my head sorted with regards to future plans. At the moment I can't seem to see ahead further than 12 months and even then not much has been planned.
So do you want to do IT for work Tach? I love PCs but I'd get tired of them for a career. I prefer playing with them as a hobby. My Brother-in-Law ia a **** hot techi who has a Microsoft Certificate. Basicly there's no question I've evr asked him that he doesn't know the answere too when it comes to Computers.Wish I was born a genius.
Used to want to go into comics when I was younger and acting also played a big part too. I used to have my own radio show but had to cancle due to private situations. I think it mite be time to step back up to the mic. Plus my co-presenter just moved back into the area. Mite be fate ^^

I know all about that certificate ^^ pretty much the top qualification. and for that he could probs walk into any job in IT that he wants.
lucky sod lol
I like stripping apart Pc's, fixing them, building them,
the whole hardware side i managed to get myself a distinction, expected as much for the software maintanence and building. customer services (working on a IT helpdesk automatically gives the upper hand on that side of the course) writting batchfiles and other macro-esq mini programs, installing operating systems (already managed a dual boot on a mac so pretty much surpass the expectations)
My tutors asked me on the first lesson "why are you doing this lesson? you could go in for the A+ at anytime and pass, why waste time on the course below it?"
"because i need the qualifications to stick on my cv, the more courses i've passed, the better"
yeah, going on again (sorry, when it comes to things i enjoy i can talk forever on it lol)
I say, GO FOR IT :thumb: on the radio again

Talked about it for a few months now. Should really get my finger out and get back to it. Radio is fun ^_^
It's good that you enjoy what you want to do. Not many people end up in the position (i.e. me). But the only way you can do what you want to do is by sticking into it and pushing yourself. If you don't try you never know.
Hmm, I wonder where everyone else is today Tach? Black must be getting stuck into his game I guess. (someone else who enjoys what he does).
