People are saying stuff like "You shouldn't do up both buttons" yet recommend M&S Suits!!!!! :eek::eek::eek: Paul Smith has some nice light material suits at the moment, as does Takeo Kikuchi. Just got myself one 2 weeks ago. They'll set you back a few hundred but worth every penny. It...

Because it takes too much effort. It's more fun reading other people's silliness :)

Earthquakes if I'm honest. Can't predict them, but when they come, I'm out like a light, I love the swaying motion. That and very heavy rain.

Depends on the year, but between £40k - £600k. The harder I work, the more I earn. I spend my life on someone else's premises but basically work for myself. I can understand people not wanting to mimic my hours, but refusing to stay 10 minutes to help out your boss just because you don't get...

haha, good old British work culture :) I work 9-6 officially but have never left at 6pm... not even once. I usually finish around 9-10pm and very rarely take an whole hour allocated for lunch. Not to mention I usually arrive about 8:30am to get some bits ready. 95% of the people in my office...

Paul Smith or Takeo Kikuchi :)

I live very close to the hotel that you'll be staying at. Nice area. I recommend going out of Tokyo if possible for a day or so. Try staying at an Onsen in Izu for a day or something. Also, be sure to go out in night in Tokyo, pick up some random friends and they will show you the real...

Fantstic game this. Haven't had time to play for a couple of weeks but I am on 5-star quests. I went online for the first time and tried to join a team, there were 3 people going on a simple quest and when I tried to join they just said "lol, look he's HR1 haha" and started the quest. This...

I worked close to there once a-upon-a-time. I believe it's about £13 per day in watford but overnight is kinda scarce. My advice is find a random permit road after 7pm and park until morning as there are no inspectors overnight :)

Here's mine :) Just got it 2 weeks ago:

I play after the wife has gone to bed. Usually from 9 or 10pm. Saying that, I don't normally finish work until 10pm recently, so just on Friday nights etc

I wouldn't expect you to say anything else now. I'm just the guy that you will never become :) I really hope that you can come back here in 7 years time and say I was wrong, for your sake and for your potential kid's.

I agree with most of what is said here accept "follow your heart" NEVER follow your heart, always follow your head. I got bogged down when I was in my early twenties because I was lonely. Ended up with a kid and am only still where I am because I couldn't bare to be apart from my kid. Worst...

The only way to really learn a language is live in the country in my opinion. Other than that, work in a company where they all speak the language and you deal with the languages home country etc. There's countless threads on this here if you search btw.

The almost ironic thing is that it is one of the best universities in the country.

I enjoyed the article. Totally agree that it was perhaps overdone but enjoyed it none the less and certainly don't criticise. On the contrary, since the weather is so nice right now, I am considering going there next week to check it out for myself. Looks like a lovely place to take some pics.
