Seems from that thread that it gets more snowbums than I thought. I`m an intermediate snowboarder, so definitely a resort to grow into
Am hoping to get into a bit of backcountry and hiking also so whitewater sounds tempting too. -
I think it`s Niseko in Japan and the world. Have a look in the resorts section.

I want N.Korea to win because it annoys me how much Japan looks down its nose at N.Korea. Yet it makes them out to be a big proper team in which they`ll have done something impressive to beat them. Japan is a team that`s all about trying to look good but with little real substance whereas N.Korea has nothing but a lot of passion.Quote:Originally posted by Kintaro:
connackers, just out of curiosity, why do you want N.Korea to win? Also, why do you feel bad for saying it?
I feel bad about saying it because I think that`s not the real reason I want them to lose. It`s more because I play in an amatuer league against Japanese teams with my team `Gaijin FC` and also do sports club with my JHS soccer club and the Japanese style of football is extremely annoying

Cheers! Looks pretty good and a mate from here lives over there so should be able to help me out with contacts. Can`t wait - just hope it`s a better season than last!

I feel bad for saying it but I really hope N.Korea win.

Hi Tera!
Liverpool in the market for Crouch! http://football.guardian.co.uk/News_Story/0,1563,1501494,00.html
For me the first big shock of the transfer season. I`d be more embarrased about that as a Liverpool fan than I am embarrased about the Arnesen poaching as a Chelsea fan

Have decided to do a season next winter and reckon Rossland in British Columbia looks like a pretty sweet place to do it. It has Red Mountain ontop of it, Whitewater less than an hour away and Fernie 3hours away. Is anyone else heading over that way or been?

This is a good place to start for some general information http://www.lasereyesurgery.co.uk/les/lasereyesurgery/
I think it costs from 1500 - 4000 pounds for both eyes depending on the treatment. But it seems there have been deals and offers that can bring the price down to below a thousand.
-
Hopefully Rossland in British Columbia.
-
Just dug up this thread as am thinking of getting my eyes done when I go back to England.
Does anyone else have any experience of this or the new `Wavefront` and `Zyoptix` treatments?
-
Don`t like mine. Has put me off teaching and made me appreciate the importance of having a good relationship with your co-workers. Leaving in a few weeks and then off to do a season. That should be significantly more fun!
-
Maybe it has something to do with Tom Cruise going `crazy`?

Columbia. Sounds like it was a pretty good game in the end.
Was a bit surprised that that`s it though. Since when did two games constitute a Tour???
-
Did anyone watch the England game?
Owen got a hat-trick and much more suprisingly the central pairing of Zat Knight (who is he?) and Glen Johnson only conceded 2 goals!

Does anyone know anything about this area?
I`m going away to Shikoku with my girlfriend to celebrate 6 months. Was hoping to find somewhere cool to spent saturday night and do some kayaking and/or hiking but can find bugger all useful information for people without cars.
Has anyone been?

Nice one! You scousers must be well chuffed! (at least the red half)
Just remember it`s ours next season

And Chelsea brings you `football idol` http://media.guardian.co.uk/site/story/0,14173,1491953,00.html

He`s what happens when you take light saber fights a stage too far.....

If you get to the safe and find that the numbers you know are right don`t work try reloading the game again from the website. Spent ages trying to work out an alternative code when it was actually some sort of glitch

Good luck scouser! who`s your prefered line-up?

Are there a lot of trolls out there?
Are they like those computer programs that invade games and steal all the good stuff from online players?

It`s hard to see N.Korea as a genuine threat or doing anything more than trying to make itself seem big and important to its people. This image would come crashing down pretty quick if it ever did actually attack anyone.
Unfortunately, it looks like Bush`s America is forced to do something because all along it`s been making a stand against `nuclear threats` and the `axis-of-evil`. How`s it going to get into Iran if it doesn`t do something about N.Korea?
Also N.Korea could be of immense strategical importance to America. Aside from the middle east another major factor in future world politics is China. Having to load that area with a strong American presence because of N.Korea would be perfect for Bush. What could really blow the whole situation up is if China gets involved now.
If China gets involved to stop the US doing anything that`ll be a good result. Then again if China gets too involved and the US wades in on the other side and forces a confrontation now, that could be by far the worst thing. Though both options look unlikely. A good result would be if the whole thing gets talked down. Either because China is strong enough to talk N.Korea down itself or to make the US think twice about intervening. What will probably happen though is that some sort of stand off will develop providing another direction for the `war against terror` to focus on.

Apologies for my ignorance but where is the Biwako area?

What was Ferguson playing at with his two penalties comment? Is he losing it, or just misjudging his mindgames (again)? Do you lot reckon that he needs to go before Man U get back on track again, or have they really just been unlucky this season?
Rossland B.C.
in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry

Sounds like good advice and a class place.
Any favourite areas that you`d recommend?
