Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Well, to be honest, I am burning up in this damn house, it feals like 100 in here, and I cant wait till we move back in our actual house, that has an AC. I cant stand this heat. Thats all Im doing. URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=225853

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 @Dark, traveling by train does sound nice. Unfortunately, here in the US most of the passenger train services have gone the way of the dinosaur. Once Americans got use to owning and driving their own cars a lot of forms of public transportation such as passenger

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 I always thought in America hush puppies were a type of casual shoe, like trainers (what are called sneakers I think over there), so now Ive learnt something. I do remember some rather nice fried corn dumplings I had when I last went to a westindian place, I dont

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Hi Tom. Sorry to here about the medical troubles, I know such things arent fun and I hope things improve. I am rather tempted though to make a very bad pun along the lines of this proves how much trouble jaws can be . Im sorry if that is a little too off, it just

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Well, in my personal case I have been busy. Mostly with doctor appointments. I have been going to see a specialist who wants to run some tests on my face and jaw to see why my mouth wont open, and he suspects the problem is neuromuscular in nature so

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Oooo, forgot about this thread. @Aaron, I believe the monthly series subscription is for six releases each, though they recently did a deal to get about five years worth at a knockoff price so I did that. Well things are fun, and even when not doing the wastes

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Hello,@dark: did you end up purchasing a subscription to the big finish doctor who range? If so, could you please try to explain how subscriptions work? They seem differnt than the usual yearly subscription where you are charged constantly. URL: http

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Lol Tom, yes, lots of terms for similar things and Ill say not many have made it over here. Ive seen curly fries, but theyre rare and usually held to be a bit of a kids thing anyway. Chips oddly enough can be served by even high class restaurants over here though

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Now I just want fries. Thanks, guys. Its 5:15 in the morning here. Nowhere will deliver me fries.Speaking of potatoes, Im looking for a tool to nicely slice them into circles, such as if I wanted to fry them, or do potatoes au gratain. I was looking at the Blind

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Hmmm, free satnav aps over here? The Rnib navigator has a paid subscription, and anyway as far as I know that is just a rebranded version of another program anyhow. Then again the only satnav I use myself is blindsquare which isnt subscription, it was a streight

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 @Dark, I think your description of potato wedges is closest in concept to our joes. As I mentioned above joes are basically a potato cut into 6 to 8 equally sized wedges, and then are covered in seasoning and fried in a deep friar. They dont necessarily come

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 @Tom, thats interesting. As you know French fries are more commonly called chips in britain, however the distinction is a little less clear. Chips tend to be thicker and more chewy than fries, (very bad and greasy if made improperly but rather nice if done well

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Hmm, I kept meaning to reply to this topic but didnt get around to it. @Tom, sorry to here about the health issues and the bills, I will say that it is at these moments Im actually glad I live inBritain with the Nhs, sinse while they definitely have their issues

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 @Dark, jo-joes are essentially great big fries. Basically, what they are is someone takes a potato, cuts it into six to eight evenly sized pieces, and then fries them in a deep friar. Thus you end up with something sort of like a fry but much much bigger

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Well, as for me I have a pretty full schedule ahead. July is of course right smack in the middle of summer vacation here in the States, and that is also when there is a lot of things to do.For example, last Saturday was our 4th of July holiday. I basically spent

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Hello,@dark: that is an interesting choice youve made there, its a shame that theya rent looking for any new volunteers.I havent tried adventure to fate yet.I recently signed up to a music streaming service called Deezer, and I like that its more accessible than

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 @Aarjan, I can see the issue with bias, but firstly remember not everyone can just wander in off the street and become a majestrate. Though its a volunteer position you still need references and to apply, and you get a years training. Also, its not a case

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Hi.@Dark: that is rather interesting, we dont really have magistrates over here either, or at least not volunteers like the UK apparently does. Even for the minor offences, the people do actually have a proper job. Usually its someone working for the police

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Hi. Im still on my winter break, which lasts to around the 20th of this month, I believe. @Dark, interesting you mention volunteer magistrates; I dont believe this is possible in my country, unless you have the required qualifications. So, out of curiosity, what

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 @Bcs, dont confuse majestrates and Judges. Over here the actual Judges are indeed highly qualified individuals and it takes literally years to become one.Majestrates are there to deal with the very miner stuff, like if someone is caught by a speed camera and gets

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Hi,[[wow]], that sounds like it could be a really interesting thing to do. I know what you mean about feeling that you dont have the expertise and the right to give someone that level of punishment, but on the other hand it could give you some real life

Re: Monthly chat July 2015

Re: Monthly chat July 2015 Well Lauren unfortunately when I investigated it turned out they arent looking for any new volunteer majistrates right now, though theyve taken my details in case they change their mind albeit they wont be making a decision until October. Well its been hot
