    Super long legs SUCK in that regard...
    The thing about the car (and I could swoon and yap about this forever) is that YES, the interior is a bit rubbish. Yes, it's tiny (it makes a Nissan GTR seem big and bulky), and yes, it only has 200bhp. But it drives so well. Direct, almost telepathic, and blissful.
    Until I test drove one, I have never driven anything like it.

    This ones for you Kayin.

    I made a new friend on the weekend, a friend of my sister-in-law. His name is "Tall-Sean". And he's a legend. BTW I'm the one shouting, and I'm 6' tall.

    And those other folks in the photo can only possibly be a few centimetres tall, poor souls.

    Haha! Imagine being 7" tall. It'd be really annoying!

    My brother is 7' tall. He makes me feel short!

    I started at 6' 6", but I've shrunk two inches from kyphosis and back injuries. My arms didn't get any shorter, and so trying to make a bow I can draw fully? Preposterous.

    Lots of bloody tall people on here! I though I was above average at 6'1" (and I probably am), but I feel like I'd be dwarfed if we ever managed to organise a meet!

    Except Steve, I'd tower a good four inches over Steve.

    Yeah he's actually 6'11" but he has the same limb thing that you do, and when he went to explain it I was like "I've been told about that I know a guy online thats got it.

    And apparently so did Old Honest Abe.

    I think the general consensus now is that he had multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B ;)

    A few months ago I purchased a Fractal Node from one of the guys over on Aria, the case was sent via Royal Mail after several failed collections.

    He disputed the delivery with Royal Mail and awaited refund.

    I got a message from that person today that the money was being refunded. And he will refund me the money tomorrow.

    The best part is I am due to receive a Fractal Node direct from Fractal to review and keep :rock:

    Came home to a letter from BT - free upgrade to Infinity fibre, no strings, no costs upfront.

    Type unique code into BT website, click click click - engineer should be here in 12th July between 8am and 1pm.

    Estimated download speed 68 meg

    Upload speed 2 meg

    Will in all probability be faster as we're only 300 yards from a fibre box, which is itself only 300 yards from the main exchange in town.

    Free upgrade Cheesecake :D:D
