I joined the gym last week (Need to put a little weight on / look good for the summer. 70KG atm) and i've been eating properly for the last month.

Had a grilled pork chop with parma ham on top and some nice side salad :)

Only had like 5 pints in the last few weeks :D lol. Thats good for me...

I joined the gym weeks ago but only got around to start going properly this week. Have cycled to work each day too.

I'm the opposite. I need to lose a bit of fat off my guts. I weighed 113.5kg this morning.

ok guys got a tangent for you,if interested...
so i got my grubby mitts on a new chiller (tech forum tenuous link) and the chiller only cools down to -6c,i reckon it can go lower still,but i think the issue is a component cutting the compressor out at a preset temp.
Soo
after a bit of mooching around i noticed this
http://img.techpowerup.org/110610/untitled.jpg
cunningly concealed behind a sheath...
it would follow that this works as a temp cutout,but what value should i put in its place?
the chiller still freezes antfrieeze :laugh: but I WANT MOOARRR!

Im having Déjà vu on this one.



Apparently not as i got shot down in inglorious flames.
Seems the topic of ones dinner is a highly revered topic on conversation in the UK Clubhouse, as is food in general.

Didn't mean to shoot you down, my post was in jest ;)

I just find this sort of chatter more suited to the General Nonsense sister forum where its catered for. The babe pictures im sure they stopped allowing them on the old GN. I think i can vaguely remember there was a hot babe thread on the old GN, probably is one on the GN forums.

I think Tatty is the only mod who occasionally stops by. We kind of just do whatever we like in this thread lmao.

Is that just a resistor? Im not familiar with chillers, lol must be cold if it can freeze antifreeze.

very confusing as i found thermistors that go from -55c to 125+c but you need to know what kind of resistor it is PTC/NTC and the resistance value of the thermistor

just do what i do and put so much solder on it you can't tell what your soldering (Solder - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solder#Lead_solder if you want to know what it is)



who?, what?, when?, why?

seriously?

i've jut had one of my moments of stupidity, took a cup out of the cupboard wanting Dr pepper, walked over to another cupboard, filled it up with kellogs and stood their for about 30 seconds , before realising what i'd done

A couple of weeks ago I filled my cup up to the brim with sugar - in a haze thinking it was the sugar pot. I had just washed my cup up, so it was still wet :shadedshu
Oh, more recently, we couldn't find the butter for like 2 hours. Turned out I put it in the microwave after doing the kids lunch. F*ck knows what goes on in my head sometimes lol

Can you tell it's dinner time? Every bloody evening we have this conversation about food!!
