Go native may take the piss, but he will soon see that I was correct even to the year which if he looks back at my posts from a year or two will see I mentioned 2014/15 as the start of a new iceage.
Slowly slowly from now on expect more cooler wetter weather during summer, obviously not every year will like it, but they will increase in frequency.
This cool short summer and very rainy weather will be the norm from now onwards with more cooler wetter summers than hot and dry.
Summers will in general become shorter, winters longer and colder, but drier for some areas, more snowy for others.

Ok so its now mad rain and mad thunder.
-
A lot of places in America and Canada have or are getting snow early this year.
-
Thundering like crazy and looks like it will belt it down with rain any second.
-
Cold and cloudy here, looks like it may rain at anytime.
-
I see parts of Hokkaido, actually TB's area are under emergency warnings for very heavy rain.
Maybe a boat required to get to worl today.

Working outside keeps me fit.

Yeah I think most of us spend way to much time on SJ, not that it is a bad thing, but ......
-
A coldish and cloudy start but with patches of brightness.
Looks like the weather could either way cloudy or sunny.

Talking of snow as we had a rare sunny day where the mountains were also clearly visible I was surprised to see patches of snow still left over from last winter, it should be snow free from around end of July or early Aug until sometime in late September, but no there were patches of snow left up there.
That by the way is not a lie, or and exaggeration as true as I sit here I saw patches of snow up there.
So it is quite possible that those mountains could receive new snow before all of last years melted.
Never seen that before for those mountains. Maybe a combination of the crazy amounts of snow the mountains at that altitude received and the cool summer we had.

Yes all eyes open Friday and cameras on the ready.

Thanks, I probably could write a guide I have enough info I have collected and experience going into them, but trying to sit down long enough and actually get my arse into gear to write a guide well that is another thing.

No idea anyone else who likes i phone.
It is funny though all this excitment and people in general around the world getting excited about a new product that is basically the same as all the other i phones, but has just grown in size a little and probably has one more colour variation.
Not like anything much new will be released with it.
-
Haha, just winding you all up.
Especially you i phone lovers.
But seriously I should of course imagine China mobile are lying about the phones design, but knowing China doing pre orders for a product that is not released would not be much of a surprise, even though I would hazzard a guess there is a license agreement that would stop carriers being able to do that before its release.
-
Like I give a shit I am posting what is supposed to have been confirmed as true.
Knowing China it probably is true as they tend to do stuff like take pre orders when they are not supposed to.
Your just pissed that just may be China really has allowed its customers to pre order before you can.
China also be lying as they are great at that too.

China’s Biggest Carriers Might Have Revealed A Ton Of Details About The iPhone 6
Business InsiderBy Lisa Eadicicco | Business Insider – Fri, Sep 5, 2014

China Telecom’s preorder page for the iPhone 6
We’re only days away from seeing the iPhone 6, but a few Chinese carriers may have already spilled a handful of details about the phone.
China Telecom is already allowing customers to pre-order the iPhone 6 ahead of its unveiling on Sept. 9, as ZDNet first reported. This comes just days after China Mobile, the country’s largest mobile carrier, also revealed it will be accepting pre-orders for the iPhone 6.
More interestingly, China Telecom’s pre-order page reveals a few key details about what to expect from the iPhone 6. First, images of the phone appear to be consistent with all the leaks we’ve seen so far. The same curved edges, redesigned buttons, and larger design that we’ve seen circulate the web for months are present here.
The phone also seems to be available in black, silver, and gold color options just like the iPhone 5s. Those who try to pre-order the phone will have the option of choosing between a 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch model, hinting that Apple could unveil both size options on Sept. 9.
The pre-order page also says the iPhone 6 will come with a “better” Touch ID home button, a 3-megapixel front-facing camera, and a sharper display packing 416 pixels per inch. Naturally, it also lists Apple’s upcoming A8 processor along with these other details.
China Telecom didn’t list a price, but ZDNet also spotted a leaked photo from another major Chinese carrier that reveals how much the iPhone 6 could cost. The reportedly leaked photo from China Unicom suggests the smaller-sized iPhone could cost about $861, while the bigger 5.5-inch iPhone may sell for $1,024. It’s important to note that these are unsubsidized prices. If you’re buying the phone on a two-year carrier contract, it will be much cheaper.
China Unicom also says the 4.7-inch iPhone will be the iPhone 6, while the larger version will be called the iPhone 6 Pro.
It seems unusual that a pre-order page would highlight smaller additions like the front-facing camera rather than emphasizing new features coming with iOS 8, such as HealthKit integration. There’s also no mention of the much-rumored NFC functionality that we’ve heard so much about within the past few days.
We won’t really know for sure until Apple officially takes the wraps off its next iPhone next week.

That would be interesting if it were not totally incorrect.
No-one anywhere in the world is taking orders. Well not for the real thing anyway.
Was on the news, if I can find the article later ill post it.
Even though it is not yet released they were taking pre orders ready for its release.
I do not say things just to exercise my speaking ability or for the fun of it, what I tell you is correct.
-
Actually this new i phone news is old hat Chinas mobile phone carrier leaked photos of it about 10 days ago and they were real.
They already took preorders, you guys are all way out of date. Lol
-
If you took the time to actually read my previous replies you will see I have already memtioned the make and model.

That's ridiculously large.
I hear that a lot.
I will probably be going for the 5.5 and I think that will almost be 'too big'.
I didn't know there were 7" phones. That's just a bit smaller than the iPad mini!
Surely that's just a tablet that 'does phone stuff'?
Don't you feel a complete plonker sticking that up by your ear?
Mine is just a whisker under 7, but I believe docomo actually has one that is crack on 7.
And no its cool to speak with my sized phone.
And no it is a phone, not a tablet, more like a phone that does tablet stuff.
-
7"
Yep 6.5 inches or around that size.
It is the Sony Xperia Ultra Z, not to confuse it with the smaller Sony experia.
Is that still a phone? Which one is it?
That's ridiculously large.

We have 4 mixed onsen here in Yamanashi that I know of and two which I have been too, one was real nice all open but set in the trees by a river. Very nice in autumn.
-
My phone almost 7 inch screen, its like holding an ipad.
I too hate small screens

GN you really are f+#cking stupid.
Those figures you quoted are bullshit!
Even the IPCC and NOAA have stated that the world has not warmed at all in the past 15 years.
Many scientists have also now changed their statements and have said that global warming stopped about 15 years ago, although they also state they dont know why.
This year both the arctic and antartica have again surpassed last years ice cover by a large margin.
Some mointains that are usually ice free such as in Scotland for have had snow remain on them all year.
Minami alps here in Japan still has a little snow left from last winter.
Even if your house is buried under 10 metres of snow you will still say I am wrong and that the climate is still warming.
Just go away do your homework and come back when in a year or two, once you get frozen to the floor of your house, until then STFU and stop talking shit.
