Not sure if this has been posted, but it looks really cool. https://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Make-a-Lever-Espresso-Machine/

Can you do a license before buying? Or is the license for a specific firearm? Or is that competency you do before hand.

Thanks, From my reading and then chatting to a few guys, it seems .270, .30-06 and .308 are all great for "all rounders", with a slight limitation on the .270 (but the way I see it, I probably won't be taking on an Eland any time soon anyway). I suppose if there is a good deal going on something (apparently a friend of a friend has a Weatherby 30-06 collecting dust), I'm with you on there not being much point for me going bigger than the .270. Again, this is early days for me - so I need to load myself up on knowledge for a year or two before buying anything!

Mongoose - How did you get to choosing the .270 over the .308/30-06. I see you said you'd stick to shooting springbok for the time being which is fair, but any other reason? How are you finding the trigger on your Howa 1500? I am very inexperienced with guns (read shot only a handful of rounds), so probably wouldn't know the difference, but there are alot of opinions that the trigger is the "only" real weak point on the Howa 1500 (though apparently pretty inexpensive to rectify/replace).

Any ideas on something like this https://www.home.co.za/pdp/delonghi-dedica-pump-espresso/_/A-154001AABE9 Already have an aeropress and a chemex with a porlex mini hand grinder, looking to potentially add espresso to the mix.

No, he isn't. Our office has a dual 80KVA UPS, each would comfortably run your house. The batteries are specced to last 30 mins at full load - ie it would probably run your house including geysers and oven for a load shedding cycle. That's a UPS, not an inverter (market terminology used for "inverter"). Edit: they are 60kVA each not 80.

I've only seen them for R6-6.5k locally (admittedly not alot of shopping around for them) Seen them alot less internationally though.

Sony's on sale for R4499 on Takealot if anyone is interested. https://www.takealot.com/sony-wh-1000xm3-wireless-noise-cancelling-bluetooth-headphones/PLID53187912

Ahh ok. Thought there was a catch.

Or new for less than 10k apparently... https://capecoffeebeans.co.za/products/mazzer-super-jolly-doser-timer-espresso-grinder?variant=7709095264303&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIqLr4n_b75AIVzkPTCh2aOwCNEAAYASAAEgJY1PD_BwE

What case did you get?

I did the same on the same deal a few months back. Really happy with them. Light, Comfy, great sound, ok noise cancelling. At the price they really are magic.

The reason I record the session is to have all the information for me. I get side benefit by getting discovery points. I'm not going to (shouldn't have to) sacrifice the quality of my information because Discovery don't/won't apply any intelligence to their product.

Thanks for the replies guys. Yeah, it's irritating - I can see in trainingpeaks that I has 90 mins at over 70 percent, but then the 4 hours is less than 70 so only get 100 points. Pretty irritating. I know there are workarounds (autopause helps in some cases), but it's frustrating that you get "penalised" for recording your warmup and cooldown.

This may have been discussed somewhere in the 565 pages here..... "incorrect" points award. Example: I do a 2 hour ride - first hour at 60% and second hour at 70% HR - this gives 2 hours at average 65% HR so I get 100 points (>30 mins@60%-69%). But I've done an hour at 70%HR...... I should be eligible for 300 points, but because I've recorded my warmup/cooldown as well, I'm penalized on points.... Has anyone found a legitimate workaround for this that doesn't involve recording multiple activities?

I don't think I've ever selected a primary device, and I get points for my Edge520 and Fenix3. (running one on autopause also helps with the average HR)

I use Zwift and my Fenix to record. Irritating but it works. Also it allows you to "optimise" your discovery points. Eg the other day I did a workout 7 x 3min pieces with 3 mins rest, 8m warmup and 5 min cooldown for the 60 min: 1:00:15 (just over an hour) Average HR for the 60 min: 125 (128 is my 70% number for the 1h 300 points) Points awarded: 100 (HR 60-69% for 60mins) BUT If I record only the 42 mins of "work" on my Garmin my average HR is 132 for 42 mins (according to TrainingPeaks). This puts me in the 70-79% for 30mins category and I get 200 points. Of course, I didn't do this, and I got 800/900 points that week!

What's an "esspresso analogue" and how do you do it with an Aeropress? I use mine alot with my porlex grinder, but can't say I've ever gotten anything near an espresso. Great Americano/long black, but never close to espresso.

So as far as I know these offices are Home Affairs Offices in banks. They are not actually affiliated with the banks in any way - ie they won't deliver to your bank. It's not a service your bank offers you either. I did my passport at FNB Merchant Place, and nobody asked anything about whether I banked with FNB or not. I was in and out within 15 mins (the free parking limit) for the photos/biometrics appointment and again for the collection. Wish I did it when applying for my daughter's passport - that was 3 hours at Randburg and the systems went offline due to Telkom outage and then 4 hours at Sandton where both parents need to be present for the application.

I bought a few from BikeMarket. They might have some lying around.

Everyone: "Arya! Arya! ARYA!" Writers: "Guess we need to kill her then. The Mountain should do it" Edit: Writer 2: "No.... Arya can kill The Mountain, but then Jamie should kill her defending Cersei"

This is amazing!

I might watch it again tonight. Great nuance in E4.

Yeah it did. Apparently 3 months of shooting at night for that episode. Apparently CGI is also easier to do (or less critical) for dark scenes making production a bit easier.

Sooooo.... back to GOT. Some VERY interesting developments in E4 which leave a few very angry people at the end! Setting up nicely for the last episodes - truly is The Game of Thrones!
