Thanks hobbs and gucci,
Ill be alright. Its just tough hey. She was 100% a few days ago. Nd it just came all of a sudden, but she is in a better place now. Also we live on a farm. Nd she was our only dog. So we'll need to get another 1. But none will take her place.

Take your time Kyle.We also desperately want to get another four-legged friend (staffie if I have my way) but its best to get over the one you lost properly.They will never replace the one that has past but they will have their own unique specialness Im sure.My next doggie has big shoes to fill thats for sure but I'll never let him know that lol Bly sterk bru.

Really sorry to hear that, Kyle.
Hobbster, myself and I'm sure others around here have had similar difficult losses and yeah, it cuts deep. Sterkte, boet.

BTW, watched supercross on Sky last night. James 'Bubba' Stewart is incredible. What a natural, fantastic rhythm he has, particularly over the triples n' table-tops. He's quickly catching up to Chad Reed, at the top of the table.
Can't believe that Kevin Windham is still racing, after all these years.

@ rhino:
You won't believe what came through the front door this morning... your parcel that I sent to you in October!
It has '7/11' in black marker pen and 'unclaimed 10/12/2008' written in red pen on it.
Never had this happen before; not sure if I should try send it again (I double-checked the shop address that you had PM'd to me to ensure that this was correct, and that the correct postage had been paid). All OK, so I really dunno which parcel services (here or in SA) have caused the cock-up.

We might still be visiting SA in July, or have friends flying over before then, and just send it via Postnet once it's in SA, like I did with JC's memory card.

Wanqa, ya im sure it would be hard to move from the touchscreen of your P1 to a non-touch on N86, how is the P1 by the way? Still solid?


@ Gucci:
Ya, absolutely. The newer firmware has made it very stable; Apart from the dated processor and dying UI, it's hard to fault. Solid has been the operative word indeed. it's also why I'm in no huge rush to get something else, despite all these newer smartphone temptations...

A toaster (Like i haven't got enough of those) but it will be used, this one is by Russel Hobbs so i guess there is a prime spot in the kitchen for it (i am all for Russel Hobbs)

On another note, how does 80Mbs 4G SOUND http://tech.yahoo.com/blogs/null/123651

Thanks ama.
Stewart is incredibly fast. He suited the kawasaki he was on last year more than the yamaha, at the begining of the year he struggled to get the yammi dialed in. Now that he has, the old james stewart is back. Read is gonna have a tough time reclaiming his championship.
Reed's also a really good rider. But he is to smooth for his own good, he want hang it out. And push himself like stewart does, and how carmicheal used to do when he still raced.
Windham even though he is getting old, he is still a really good rider. He is one of the mast classiest riders out there. You can just see that he is riding for the love of it,
Unfortuneatley for us, we cant watch it anymore, last year there used to broadcast it on supersport. But this year multichoice didnt bother to redeem the contract. I was so pissed off when i found that out. Im just hoping so much that they will show the fim motocross here.
Lifes journey is not to arrive at the grave in a well preserved body, but to rather skid thru sideways shouting, HELL YEAH! THAT WAS A HELL OF A RIDE!

Rhino thats hard to believe.How do Vodacom get away with some of their pricing? Are you telling me there are no pay-ins for that phone at all on either of those contract packages?
