  1. Lost my earphones D= Time spent alone seems to drag so much more when you don't have music or anything to keep you occupied. Cavemen will have lived a fraction of the time we do, but I bet it felt like longer lol.

      They also didn't have Airsoft, so their rock wallets were significantly heavier with all that rock money!

      Yeah, they must've been the most hence badasses ever. They'd have destroyed us all if they did play airsoft.

  2. Don't you have a student account? My overdraft is free to use, I'm more than £450 into it at the moment and it isn't costing me a penny. In fact, I asked a cashier if I could do this and they said yes... To my disbelief. Since the OD is free to use, you can withdraw it in its entirety into an ISA at 3% interest. So if I do, I'll be getting 3% of £1250, for literally nothing. The bank will be giving me interest on their own money lol.
  3. Royal Fail have cost me £35 by the looks of things.

  4. Where's mah post?! I ordered two different things, from two different places, on the 20th, first class. Ought to have had them by the 22nd at the latest. Still no sign! >Annoyed

  5. Wishes Panoptes' guns and house weren't so much nicer looking than mine =[

  6. I'm on an economy boosting streak this week. Just ordered a single point sling for my L85 and some Afghan style knee pads for the loadout.
  7. Just upped my L85 to 400+ fps, stuck some .30s into it... Goodbye enemies, I have the ultimate DMR of death.

      That sounds a bit hot :P

      Yeah, ultra sexy-hot :P

      I don't think it actually has a range limitation, it looks like I'm firing white laser blips that go on forever. I lose sight of them through my ACOG but there's a particularly noticeable dip. Weekend now please!

      But? I meant to say before.

       

      How the hell did I do that? =/

  8. I think it's the way they run the site. I was talking to Wallace on the way there and back 'cos he offered me a lift, he was saying that when they used to play people used to operate out of car boots and never talk to each other. When he used to walk around at lunch before he realised doing so was "taboo" people used to be really defensive whenever he asked them what gun they were using and what have you, so him Stef and everyone all said "I bet we could run a site better than this" And the rest is history lol. I think it's their friendly manner that does it though, if everyone is pleasant, then it breeds pleasantness. It only takes one charismatic dick to ruin everything. ...It's a miracle Pocket hasn't brought the whole site crumbling down yet haha. I don't think of it so much as going airsofting anymore, for me the social aspect of it has become a part I look forward to. Like last time I went with you to Brit-Tac, and this time at Skirmish were the only times I've been with none of my own clan with me and it was great, got some right conversations with people. I almost preferred going alone because it gives me a chance to get to know and talk to other people and it's thing like that that prop up the site, it's fantastic. I think it's the fact that other sites don't offer that atmosphere to the same degree that make me not enjoy them as much, 'cos I almost don't think about the social site when I'm reviewing the day, but in retrospect it plays key to a lot of my enjoyment. Anyway though, I think I've gone off topic enough now...
  9. Just been offered the role of student representative for UKAPU, their next AGM is in a few weeks, during which I might be elected. Just another reason to stay in Uni... Balls lol
  10. MTP Camelbak. Also got 4 more Emags to bring the total to 12 - no more plastic crap STANAGs for me. Got a pot of .30s for the L85 as well. Had it shooting around 400fps on .20s the other day, it was overhopping .25s beyond the range I could see, even through the ACOG, so I'm hoping the .30s will bring it down so they fly level for ever. I just hope Skirmish will let me run it as a DMR if it turns out working well, 'cos the ICS L85 can't be locked to semi, it requires the auto mode on the selector for semi to work.
  11. I wish G&G would make a normal tac light handguard, I freakin' hate the one with rails on it. I'm a bit of a purist when it comes to MP5s, then can't be anything extra on them, no rails, no optics, no silencers. Flash light handguard + collapsible stock = badass. But G&G have managed to make it impossible to have both those things at once...
  12. I used mine today and got on with them swimmingly. They are slightly tight around the wrist but when you're playing you don't even notice, so it's fine. Plus, they just look sexy, so it's all good
  13. I remember Ian once saying - He's a sound engineer or something - That Binatone are often referred to by those in his field "belongs-in-the-bin-a-tone" lol But hopefully, you got something semi decent.
  14. I finally have some Oakley hard knuckle gloves! Granted I'd have been better off buying them in a size up so they fit me better, but they're damn cool. Also got a valve tool for my pistol mags, so now they're all fully functional again =D

  15. I just ordered an Element valve tool so I can fix my Sig magazines and I also ordered some imitation Oakley hard knuckle gloves, because I'm sick of the genuine ones being out of stock everywhere...
  16. Why is it that when you've really got to get something done, you just can't be arsed?

      because things you really have to do are always a chore! the things you want to do never seem like a task so you just do them.

      Wiser words have never been spoken. Well, they probably have. But yeah...

  17. Good choice! You know who to come to if you need any help with it There's Finius too, in case I'm not around for whatever reason.
  18. I would say yes to both. I've had mine for just under a year and it's the only gun I've used since, if I'd had anything else I'd have probably bought and sold about 5 guns in that time. ICS is without a shadow of a doubt the best L85 on the market, in my mind. I bought mine for £320 so £295 is very good. I think the cheapest I've seen them is £290 which I THINK was on Fire-Support, but I might be wrong. If you do get one then Fire Support is the best place to look for internal parts, they sell more or less every component.
  19. L85's all ready and tuned for the fps limit of Sunday's skrimish. More testing to be done in the morning to check the range is up to scratch.

  20. Watching the christmas special of Father Ted to test my new internet connection :P

  21. Lunch break at work is 2.5 hours long... So bored...

      It's 'cos the day is split into a morning and an afternoon set of jobs.

      Morning ends at 12 and afternoon starts at 14:30. No one's meant to have to do both shifts in the same day but I I've no choice because I've only got Thursday free to fill my 15 hour weekly quota :(

       

      Pulled the short straw basically lol.

      Ouch, unlucky mate! I didnt have a job for my second and third year of uni. Working just didnt give me enough time to study and do all the practical work I needed to. But then again I didnt have airsoft as a hobby!

  22. Can't be arsed with Uni today, going to have another crack at playing through Operation Flashpoint Dragon Rising on what I've dubbed "impossible" mode.

      Wow... Really? I just lost more than half of what I typed because the box isn't big enough... Basically what I was trying to say was that the pilots are so shit at life that they deserve to just be left there to get slaughtered. Sigh.

       

      The game is good though lol.

      I did that mission on foot. :P Just make a darn run for it- I tell them to run for it and I just walk backwards and shoot :P The one assaulting the depot is hard... be as stealthy as you like it ain't gonna work :P Blow it up and jump in a jeep! haha...ahhh I miss my old xbox...

      I found out earlier that on the mission after the depot one, where you assault it on foot with a huge army size force, you can actually get into the LAV IFVs at the start and just blow everything to pieces :P it's quite fun until you get killed by an AT crew from a mile away...

  23. Tonight is the night for V for Vendetta. Anyone know if it's on TV? My DVD copy broke =[
