I need soothing colours atm. Problem still persists though is now almost gone. I swear as soon as you turn 50 you fall to bits lol.

Whilst all of this was happening the Oblivion remaster came out. Not interested as it's not my bag but I then remembered they were doing a Fallout 3 one too. This is HUGE for me as it's my most played game ever. I still do a play through every year and have had to keep my venerable Xbox 1x as it just doesn't work on modern systems for me.

So yeah if that comes out I will be made up and I will have just the rig to play it on the TV.

That's why you can see the Xbox sat on the floor in the pics.
 
Well a lot of it is self inflicted. Due to my autism I thought I was invincible and I could bounce. As such the line from Fake Plastic Trees comes to mind. "mavity always wins".

I tried to outrun a car when I was 7 and broke a good few bones including my femur, which now hurts on a daily basis. I've broken fingers, arms, ankles, and teeth. BMX is a bitaych.

I've also inherited arthritis which is now my main issue. I now walk like I've just got off a horse.

Ah well. I've deffo lived that's for sure.

You can tell my vintage because I've just ordered a very expensive washing machine and cooker and am giddy like a child about it lmao.
 
Also a (former) BMXer :) - still have my 2001 Macneil Miron! (my Ruben got stolen... sad times)
Was lucky enough to not break anything more than a metatarsal (and some concussions), still pretty knackered though haha.
Still using fridge, cooker and washing machine that came with my flat... I'm too frugal to replace them before they completely die :D

Wow that's some collection!
The Miron I had before the reuben, so rebuild it with parts from an 05 Eastern Ace of Spades I bought with the insurance money.... Anyway... I'll stop dragging the thread away from PCs :D
 
Few for you. I may have forgotten I have a NOS 1996 2hip Pork as well. Once you get 10 deep you become forgetful lol. Sadly I lost the pics of the whole bike so a close up on the NOS cranks and sprocket will have to do for now.









 
Note. I repainted the Standard Strip bars with 2k and it was taking time to harden properly so I could not fir the levers last time I was with the bike. It would have squished the clear and I hate that.
 
A lot of nostalgia for me there (especially the 2hip pork - forgot those had existed! and the T1 barcode)! I'd probably have a few more bikes, but I only have a tiny little concrete hut behind my flat, just room for the MacNeil and my ~Y2k Marin B17 (was my dream mtb when I was about 15, picked up for £200 from FB during lockdown before my body started failing me :P )

nice build ive been eying the case myself for a future server/media build, ive got a nr200 but I love how it also supports matx and atx psus so I wouldnt have to pay for the mitx & sfx psu tax.
 
Loved the look of the build with the contrast of the small case and the (comparatively) huge air cooler! Has the 360 made much difference to the temps? Shame they don't make the tubes adjustable, would be nice to have less 'slack' in the water lines.
