The happy thread!

[Airsoft-Ed]

YES!

Here are some recent transcripts of our conversation:

Finius:

When I was in year 7 at Secondary school I performed an astonishingly dramatic rendition of the life of "Farmer Finius" in a presentation on the fuedal system, my classmates were so moved by my talents that it stuck

Your clue was sh*t, so much for building suspense

Me:

Yeah

It was

I think you could link farmers to the feudal system though

I mean, it was about the trading of land and stuff, right?

Well, who has land?

Farmers!

Specifically, Finius the farmer.

Apparently.

Finius:

Well, actually, Farmer Finius didn't have any land

He worked on Knight Gurnhams land

Because in the feudal system

Lords had most of the land

Which they leased out to their knights

And the knights then had peasants on said land doing all the work for them

Me:

Well

Y'know you said my clue was sh*t?

Have you seen the thread recently?

Finius:

Yes I have

But the point was

You wanted to generate interest

Without giving it away

Me:

Ah well

You're now Farmer Finius

Which tbh I think is a much cooler name than just Finius

 

[Wølf]

I cheated

Take a look

 

[Airsoft-Ed]

Awww =[

 

[Finius]

Ed's life = ruined

Cheers wolf!

 

[joshcowin]

nothing wrong with farmers unless your called finius

 

[joshcowin]

and your point is? no offence

 

[Finius]

I am presently working on concept boards for several photoshoots, their titles are as follows:

-Sexy Steam Punk

-Girls and Guns of Airsoft Calendar

-Fine Art Exploration of Bondage

-Candyland (this one involves two girls and lots of colourful sugary stuff)

-Nude with hats

-Dominatrix

So err...Yeah, watch this space

Apart from Uni resits looming and my dog being ill, things are looking quite good for me at the moment. I'm in a happy mood.

I've been paid, I've become a supporter of the forums and then some, which has really cheered me up and I've just applied for the role of UK Airsoft Players Union - Student Representative. I'm hoping my new forum status, as well as my self-set up airsoft society at Uni will give me an edge in the application process.

Fingers crossed.

If I get the place I might find some motivation to not fail this module and be kicked out of Uni haha.

Just ran AVG PC tune up on my PC.

20% of the items scanned had errors, 5GB of junk files deleted, and had 18% fragmentation.

Now it should run BF3 a little better, as it's been getting progressively worse since I've had it.

 

[Airsoft-Ed]

Just heard back from UKAPU and they think I sound perfect for the position! =D

So I might well soon be UKAPU's student representative.

Anyone have any project ideas for me?

 

[Wølf]

After a crap day at work nailing landrovers back together im happy because i leave to start my training next month B)

 

[craig]

good luck lad what as if you don't mind me asking

 

[Wølf]

PWRR - infantry

I was offered the chance to go do PRAC (parachute regiment aptitude course) at the end of selection but i refused as i personally felt my fitness wasn't up to scratch so i went for infantry instead.

Hoping to get into 2nd battalion after training.

 

[craig]

2nd battalion mercian regiment?

 

[Wølf]

2PWRR

 

[Airsoft-Ed]

Finally sold my M14 and my MEU. Feels weird to only have 3 guns.

Additionally, I'll soon be free of my Uni work and to top it all off, I've got a mini-weekender next weekend.

Happy days!

 

[Airsoft-Ed]

Uni work is a thing of the past, the L119 build is coming along nicely, the performance is stupid crazy good, I haven't even touched the internals... Well, apart from shimming the gearbox and rewiring (G&P might be good after all)

Second LLM arrived today, as did my second speed loader, stock pad for the L119, 5000 .25s all ready for the weekend

My girlfriend even made it into Nottingham Trent, despite having a billion epileptic fits around her exam period, for the second year in a row. So considering that she's done exceptionally well. Especially considering this year's A Levels have been a lot harder. Sheffield Uni where I work have 1200 places going, grabbable through clearing! Usually there isn't even 1!

 

[Airsoft-Ed]

I've been paid! Yay!

Time to get that P226 from Ratty of PB... When he replies to me anyway.

Also just saw an MTP smock for £20 in a military stall at Skipton market... About to go back and check the size.

 

[Finius]

Finally got real internet en mi casa. Very happy man!

 

[Finius]

Pretty sure I've just traumatised Ed for life by telling him about my willy on facebook.

This makes me very happy.
