@ Hobbster:
Ya we finished packing and weighing the luggage last night.; it's vrek-warm here today and I'm scheming how am I going to wear my jacket stuffed with small heavy pressies n' souvenirs tomorrow if the weather's like this? Sigh, all in the name of keeping to the 20kg-odd of luggage weight, hey?
LOL, I must look like one of those dodgy watch dealers that you see in the movies..

It still hasn't really hit home yet; methinks once we're in CT, I'll feel that our holiday really has started. Yeah, can't wait indeed, boet.

WRT hunting, my brother is so seriously into hunting. Before the law changed he and my late uncle had a whole arsenal of weaponry. He's still got his 30.06 hunting rifle for hunting, plus his Colt .45, Martini Henry rifle from the Boer War etc.
Let's just say we don't exactly see eye to eye on a lot of things...

Hi everyone,for those of ya'll who remember me. It's been a while since my last confession (post)...

I come seeking advice and guidance from the wiser ones. It's that time of the the year when I'm due for an upgrade at MTN. I currently have and love my W810i, and its still working perfectly, so I'll keep it as a backup.

What is the latest and greatest SE on the market? I'm clueless when it comes to these things. I just know that my next phone must also be a SE.

Any tips or suggestions from the audience?

Hi Tranced, Gucci.

@ Tranced, will have to go and see what they have and what I can get. Their website is not that great as they only show specials.

@ qucci, i like the G900. Will go after work to see what phones they have.

Thanks!

LOL Wanqa, maybe you should try to strap on an extra two or three made-in-Utopia Rolexes

Wrt hunting, i've gone on the odd hunt or two, but what really turns me off is the unethical type of hunter. They're the type who'd give any hobby/sport a bad name: indiscriminate shooting, needless wounding of animals, mixing liquor and firearms, littering all over the veld, etc. The worst is that many farmers are turning to game ranching because of economic circumstances, and some of them don't really care which type of hunter they allow on their properties, as long as the moola is right. Some of the game ranches here don't allow the killing of animals at all; instead, they allow hunters to dart certain animals which need to be tranquilized for either quarantine or medical purposes, as was recently done with a white rhino just up the road from us.

Medusa, at least you've the wisdom to ask about which phone to get next, unlike the mother of your nephew. Your sister sometimes makes me wonder whether she wasn't adopted Got herself the N73 a few months ago, doesn't understand much about the phone and doesn't want me to tweak it for her either Yesterday she complained about how slow it's become. I had a look, and discovered that she has nearly every photo, video and sound clip on the phone's memory instead of the memory card... and you know how snappy-happy she can be....
I'm not superstitious, merely mildly stitious.

You know what guys as long as we do things civilised we dont have to go all touchy and hobbs saying ppl are on the shitlist etc.everything has it's time and place.when we go hunting we dont let the animal suffer and we dont kill and leave it.suprisingly we eat it so it's the same principal as you eating chicken or mutton or beef.actually it's hypocritical to look down on a hunter if you eat meat.but like kryptik said it's when ppl get out of hand that's when hunting is bad...heard of these american tourists etc that hunt leopards etc just as trophies now that's plain sick i'm suprised governments allow such needless killing of endangered animals.oh well money talks...
