  1. From what I've learned: Small fires (e.g bin fires) - One engine Large fires - two engines, ladder engine and police. Vehicle accident - small - one engine, two police vehicles, emergency ambulance and ambulance. Vehicle accident - large - roughly same as above. Flood: one engine at each flood. Police attend when there's not enough engines (after 3-4 floods). Medical - patient transport - ambulance Medical - emergency ambulace and sometimes normal ambulance if transport is needed. General unlawful activity: police car and van or just vans Police pursuits involve as many units as neccessary. Any extra fire engines needed would be called from the neighbouring region, Clackmanninshire.
  2. lol Only got STALKER:SoC, and don't even meet the recommended on that What type of special editions do you have? I hear some places (like Ukraine, Russia and Poland) get different SE to other countries. Pictures of the coins? CoP any good? Oh, and do they still wave their arms around and get angry when you point a gun at them?
  3. My friend bought Rome: Total War Gold a while back and I tried playing it. I thought it was ok, but not on my wishlist - Did like the siege wepons destroying castle walls and stuff. That was cool. Might get Medieval II though. I prefer games like Age of Empires II, but Medieval II is newer and probably better than Rome:TW. Opinions?
  4. Not got this, but I know it's suppose to be an absolutly amazing game. Might get it some other time. And I hope that ValvE do a weekend deal next week with 50% off
  5. And in other news, there was mass celebration throughout Germany today after the Berlin Wall was brought down in the wake of the collapse of the Soviet Union - uniting East and West Germany.
  6. Do you have any evidence to show otherwise? just kidding Complaint: Failed my driving test Reverse around a corner and a jeep came right up behind me. Forgot I had full lock on and went to redo it and mounted the pavement The driving test guy was a bit of an idiot too - He gave me a minor for not singalling on a roundabout - Despite that fact that it's a roundabout which has traffic lights and lanes. If I signalled, other drivers would have thought I was lane changing. (signalled off the roundabout though) On the bright side: It's Guy Fawkes Night. So I'm off to the glen with friends for a fireworks display then pizza afterwords EDIT: I wonder if NFK will be celebrating...
  7. No you're imagining things Just went back through a dozen pages of my posts (back to early May) and didn't find the desktop picture I posted, so I assume the topic has been deleted.
  8. "but you're canadun and all canaduns spek Franch." Derp Ever been to the French - German border? Don't, because they speak both languages together. It's so confusing I once tried to translate it, but didn't get very far. It's rather hard IMO. All I know is that there's a bit about calling 118 incase you flip, and write 118 in your underwear... (just expanding on this) The directory service number was changed in switzerland to a number close to 118 - for the fire brigade. The Swiss government did little to advertise the change. To make matters worse, the French directory service is 118. The fire service were receiving an average of 20 calls a day asking for non fire related things, and the fire service was worried this would cause deaths.
  9. Or you could go to run then enter DxDiag - that should give you the specs. No idea of the processor, but it has a clockspeed of 2.2Ghz Nvidia 7600 GS with 512Mb RAM 2Gb RAM 186Gb Hard drive That's all that really matters with mine to be honest. It's old, but better than what it was from the factory (Nvidia 5400 with only 512Mb RAM - no additional RAM). Need a bigger hard drive though... Think I just need a better computer EDIT: CBA going to the website, I'll do it later when I'm not lazy.
  10. Awww (shouldn't really complain though since we get it for free - it still sucks though) Complaint 1: Friends who whine and b*tch over absolute petty things and treat like the end of the world. Make a decision and suck it up or you won't get anywhere. Complaint 2: People who say "you ok?" instead of "how are you?" They're completly different questions. Complaint 3: People who leave you to ask what's going on while on IM - instead of being sensible and telling me what's so funny/sore/whatever, you have to wait for me to stop what I'm doing and ask you.

    scanners

    The green one I believe there is a law in the UK that makes it illegal to use a scanner to listen to police radio. EDIT: Actually there's an iphone app that allows users to listen to american police/fire/ems radio. I have the free version and it's quite good to listen to
  12. completly irrelevant - it set a record and therefore is the fastest helicopter. Hence why I said A Lynx, not the lynx. If they had said "the fastest mass produced helicopter", then fair enough - but that wasn't the statement made.
  13. Yea, you're right. It might actually be this one: The article says that the helicopter is being restored and displayed at the national helicopter mueseum . (I'm assuming this is probably the one because they could have just gotten any LYNX helicopter instead.) To stay on topic... Yea, this is what the helicopter looks like, and it's what Qatar uses as a police air unit.
  14. Yup. It's actually used by the Qatar state police. (Not the one that broke the record, no idea where that one is).
  15. As far as I can tell, this is still the current helicopter speed record. So neither of your helicopters are faster - it's a G-LYNX
  16. That works? So I can get better than 10Kb/s download speeds if I keep complaining?... BRB, phoning Sky.
  17. Complaint: Ring finger and pinky finger have been numb for a few weeks - apparently this is because of a damaged of compressed Unlar nerve in the elbow. Me being the twit I am, looked up Unlar nerve and now I feel sick. To cut it short: I've made myself sick because of my squeamishness.
  18. He means this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Taurus detroit news I'm assuming the replacement "based on the 2010 Ford Taurus" is not the Interceptor. Or is the Interceptor the spin off of the 2010 Taurus? The Ford Interceptor looks better in my opinion. I can't tell if it's the camera angle or not, but the front looks unbelivably daft. Hi.
  19. Italics: Corrected spelling mistakes They should park outside a pharmacy and just point to it everytime someone taps their window
  20. I ban you for missing a word in your post.
  21. Haha, nice It's so funny when people don't use proper English.
  22. Town with several rural villages with a population of 145,804 and only one fire station with 3 engines + 2 extra engines kept in garages. - The next nearest fire station is in a completly different region (state). Not quite sure how volunteer fire services work in America, but don't you just need a vehicle with lights and a little bit of equipment? Wouldn't you use the equipment from the emergency vehicles on scene?
  23. That's very true - Never thought of that I hope this car will start replacing Crown Vics, or make Ford hurry up and replace the Crown Vics. Very true, but that topic was undescriptive and the source has/had very little detail in it. This one is better And the OP didn't see the other topic because he posted this in the LA forum area instead. Harsh much? He was showing the thread to the OP
  24. Find out what style girls are into. Quite a lot of girls here are into neck long hair that's really curly. Others like short, spikey hair and... That's about it Grow you hair and see if you can get it to curl. It will look pretty
  25. I think you should go bald ....or not A lot of my friends who are 15 have the start of a beard, but no sign of a beard. You really want facial hair? find a cat and shave it - that'll work EDIT: What if you go completly bald, instead of a jarhead cut? Go for that
