    I ordered 100m of paracord on a reel from someone on EBay. The person selling it was kind enough to get it out on next day delivery, however when I opened my package I was gobsmacked at how it arrived. The reel had split apart and the cord was everywhere. I plan on using it tomorrow so you...

    Nature - dirty and unsafe?

    I'm guilty of letting my kids sit and fester on their consoles over the weekend (I do it myself with my PC), however following the 100 huts post elsewhere on here, I've decided to take my boys to some nearby woods for a "walk". Will try and find somewhere off the beaten track so that we can...

    Is it possible to download pics without a photo sharing site

    Its even easier than that, if you are looking at the picture you want to upload you can drag and drop it into the browser window when Imgur is open and it will instantly upload.

    I should have been a dentist

    Thank the stars my dental is free, one of the perks of my job! Only have to fork out for the wife, but now that we have one in the stove again she gets free dental for a little bit!

    we are but are the rest ? solar flare survival

    If I ever see something in my lifetime that makes us change our ways drastically, then we should use the guidance in these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgia_Guidestones So that we can rebuild a better society than the one we currently live in. I read about these a while back via...

    we are but are the rest ? solar flare survival
