The late al-Hilli's house. Not too shabby. What would this set you back, Englanders?

spot has a funny way of fcking things up.. so no, not over confident at all.. they say you can always tell how well the ABs will play by watching the haka, and I do think the Aussies may be out for some revenge after last years semi final.. I have tipped the ABs by 12 on superbru.. No, they didn't ...

50/50 for me. How often do the ABs win in Sydney? The stats will show us. Most of the time, but not nearly enough compared with Brisbane. 29 wins, 19 losses and 2 draws. Brisbane has 14 wins, 3 losses and 2 draws. Thanks. The ABs win 3 out of 5 test matches in Sydney. I don't see the current AB env...

Six gold medals now for NZ. That's six times as many as Ireland with the same population.

NZ - 1.13 gold medals/million people now. Damning evidence that we're doing it right.

I did save the forum from spam! Gave you the option of sharing in that achievement too, and Guy Smiley. You distanced yourselves from the whole thing so I will take all the credit, thankyou.

Good stuff from the kiwi birds overnight. Need to catch a replay of the BMX. Was watching a bit yesterday and it was brilliant to watch. Fast, technical and occasional carnage. What time is the kayaking final tonight? Will be at some friends for a shindig so will have to dodge into the lounge to wa...

I'd just like to point out that at least two of our gold medallists at these games are Jewish (Jo Aleh and Nathan Cohen). Mazel tov, bro. I was thinking about this the other day and can honestly only recall ever (knowingly) meeting one Jew in my entire life - a bloke from school who was originally ...

One more gold medal and we will shade even Jamaica for the coveted no.1 ranking in gold-medals-per-million.

Well, everyone's pretty short on detail about this secret organisation, aren't they? I was just running with that.

C'mon the Black Sticks. I hope they're still focussed and want the prize left available. They deserve to be rewarded for what has been a great campaign.

Don't mean to threadjack, but Valerie Adams just qualified with her second throw. All good. I've changed the title of the thread. Would've have done it earlier but was scared it would get obliterated by a certain drama queen mod. When is the gold decided in the shotput, tomorrow morning? Yep, 8:15 ...

I shoot both RAW and Jpeg but generally find myself cleaning out the RAW files and keeping the ones I like or want to edit later . I've also got a 1TB external HDD which I use solely for photos. Workflow is an individual thing. Each person will have their own way of doing it. You are making a libra...

Post processing s/ware is getting better all the time so in 10 years, there will be even more you can do with your old RAW. This is a very good point. If you shoot JPEGs the photo is finished there and then. Processing software's continual development will take your RAW file with it. Your photos wi...

So NZ based Kiwis or anyone who follows rowing closer than me. What's the deal with the twin skullers and Mahe? Are they genuine chances for gold tonight, or is the hope simply for a medal? Not that winning an Olympic medal of any colour isn't something worth celebrating. Also, didn't Dryesdale use...

She'd do better if she wasn't stopping to tweet in the middle of the fecking race.

She's actually on her phone in the middle of a race, is that right?

Qatar is the greatest Olympic nation? Who would have thunk it? Mitty will be over the moon.

Thinking about it, French people are so passively aggressive that the under-hand and hidden displays of force (eye-gouging and terrorism) are what comes naturally to them.

Just looked at the medal table. Ireland isn't even on it yet. To "hop on the bandwagon" means to join in a wave of success of a team or a cause, doesn't it? But Ireland hasn't shown the slightest sign of being successful.

I was expecting more medals in the sailing for NZ who usually do well in this sport. Not really. We have a decent Olympic record in board sailing but not so much outside that. ….and the sailing medals are in the second week. .... and some of your boats have had problems transfering to the uk i hear...

Do we really need the announcements at the opening ceremony in French? Waste of time if you ask me.

Over the years, I've become entirely accustomed to just how much pro photography is staged. It's only us Joe Public who feel the romantic need to believe life shots are spontaneous. This always sums it up for me: http://worldsfamousphotos.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/03/dali_atomicus.jpg Yes, a geni...

A little bit of situation manipulation and a good shot could have been a great one. Lighter and cigarette for the subject in profile. Thanks. That would be poetic license indeed. The reality is he was a photographer too and he's holding a camera, not a cigarette. An immigrant from French Africa. ht...

Nice :thumbup: Taken from Mt Wellington? That's right. On Friday. You live nearby, do you? Nah. I live in the CBD. I just judged the angles from your pics. The new developments at the old quarry was also a give away. I haven't been up there for around 15 years. Mainly because there's no road to the...
