  1. Also im really excited for Flaked season 2 arriving to Netflix in June.

    I loved Season 1, thought it was great and very unpredictable, cant believe the poor review scores it gets. I must be taking crazy pills or something.

    Hopefully more people will watch it. I really dont want it to be cancelled. 

    Other things iv been watching:

    Master of None season 2 -  really enjoyed it and accidentally binge watched the series.

    BCS - Love it, like eveyone else

    Silicon Valley - quite enjoy it but think it will keep getting worse as worried they will just start repeating similar storylines

    brooklyn 99 - sure,its funny enough, keeps my entertained

    Designated survivor - i really enjoyed the premise and first few episodes but now its just getting too similar to 24 which i never really liked

     Since then I have frequently put a stone plus on over the winter and had to lose it again.

    Im the opposite, i put on weight in the Summer and take it off for Winter

    Cardio, No added sugars, no alcohol, no fried foods, no carbs. I lost 60lbs in 3 months doing it this way, 30 lbs more than I intended! (10 years ago)

    This!

    Its basically a Keto(genic) Diet.

    I was 16.5st (105kg) at one point 4 years ago, i am now a middleweight amateur boxer at 75kg (11.8st)

    For actually cutting weight keto is the easiest for me. 

    I always say you can lose 2kg a week with Keto, which matches what Maqroll above.

    Its easy because no carbs is your only rule, you can eat as much as you would like and whatever you like as long is there is no carbs in it.

    Cauli rice.

    i cannot agree with this at all. Cauliflower rice and Courgetti are both awesome things.

    They have changed the way i eat when i am on a keto (low carb) diet, which i do to cut weight for boxing. And now even when not in Keto, i do not think ill ever cook rice or spaghetti again, the alternatives are just as good and way better for you.

  5. Thought 10 point lead with sturgis and Cook for me and only Adams against was enough. Obviously not. 

    Now i have to get the win over Xia Mondeos with Zeke, Evans, Brady and Pats (vs LA)

    Looks like my beloved Eagles terrible D last night will have cost me a playoff spot

    We used a company called Miracle Sri Lanka   http://www.miraclesrilanka.com

     

    In contact with them now (Ashad) and already seemed very helpful. Was looking at getting the train from Kandy to Ella (9 hours) which he said was pointless, just get on the train at the last stop before Ella, so you just get the best 2 hours. Also he suggested looking fairly budget for the inland accommodation as we wont be in them for alot of time and then nicer rooms/hotels for when at the beach which makes sense.

    So, thanks

    In my defence this is my first year watching NFL so I don't actually know the difference between the two. I'm learning though!

    Fair enough, although Rudolph was never really a player of note before this season, he was one of those streaming TEs who you always picked up after a good week and he didnt perform again till you dropped him. TEs are the worst!

    I knew Yahoo was wide of the mark with their predictions but I still stupidly listened to them again this week. 

    Kyle Rudolph had a 1 star matchup whilst Lance Kendricks had a 3 star matchup.

    Obviously the guy with the 1 star matchup scored 17.90 points compared to the guy with the 3 star matchup that scored 1.

    FML.

    Dont blame Yahoo, they are just telling you who has the better match up, you still sometimes gotta pick the better player. you play Rudolph over Kendricks irrespective of match up, like you play Julio over Sharpe, even if Julio is against the Broncos and Sharpe is against the Browns. ;)

    Could be worse, you could have started a back up QB. luckily i would have lost anyway even if i had subbed Kaep in in time. Was annoying me when our projected scores where around the same time despite a 0 for QB.

    My Buddy cant go till 15th now so going to be away for just over a week, so scrapping the other countries. Just going to Sri Lanka now.

     

    How long were you there for @tonyh29, seems like you did alot. did you rent a car and driver, take busses or air taxis?

    Think you can get a direct flight to Madagascar from Mauritius that would probably be my first choice 

    (wanted to do Madagascar on my recent African trip but didn't have enough time to do it justice )

    South Africa is the other direct option from Mauritius  , see my report a few posts above but you can see and do loads from Jo'Berg and internal flights are very cheap

    Dubai , I like it there but Mrs H doesn't , to be honest it is all very sterile and fake but  I just like the idea of Sun / swimming by day skiing / malls by night , ... Oman is more untouched and has a little more culture , should get the whale migrations in December 

     

     

     

    Looks like we might go to Sri Lanka have the option of 2 or so days in Muscat or Mumbai. presume you would recommend Muscat?

  11. So, circumstances have lead to me having 10 free days in december. I am going to be in maritius from the 23rd Dec which should be good however I am now free from the 12th Dec and so thought i would do something first and a friend of mine is willing to come.

    I can do anything really. However obviously with going to Maritius though rather than going somewhere(Like Colombia) from London and back before then flying to maritius, i though somewhere close to mauritus where i can fly straight from there might be good.

    Im looking for a mix of culture, activities, sun and drinks.

    Tanzania(zanzibar) via Oman/Dubai was my first though... we both have friends in dubai and iv actually never been.

    any thoughts or suggestions people?

    @chappy @tonyh29

    Thanks in advance

  12. Im way more interested in this than a PS4 or Xbox. those things have little interest to me these days. I have had a PS1,2&3 btw.

    Im obviously not a gamer. i dont spend enough time at home to be one. I maybe watch 30 mins of TV a day.

    It seems more simple than those other consoles, where i could play a game of mariokart with the misses at home or on a train/plane.

    I will wait for it to come out and check review etc but im interested.

    Yeah I'm having that discussion with a mate at the moment.  Front display ratio is currently a selling point but I think if you go too high; as you say; it becomes difficult to handle without touching an active part of the screen.  I already tippy-toe (tippy-finger?) around my S6.  My mate's S7 Edge+ for me is extremely finicky, but he loves it.  It's him that sent me on that Xiaomi link.

    But if Samsung can't nip their explodey problem in the bud (and properly compensate those whose houses they've burned down in the process), then I will be switching brands and the likes of OnePlus & Xiaomi are top of the heap.

    & ZTE? The Axon 7 is meant to be the phone to have
