Terra Trail!

Terrakill is road bound!

My g/f kindly and loveing brought me a motorbike for my 21st =D (witch is in a few days)

so we head to camber to collect my new machine, and a lovely one at that

Its not the fastest of bikes but its a lovly ride and comfortable.
On the way back from camber i ask my g/f to follow me in her car all the way to make sure everything was all good, i was loving the ride (this being the 1st time ive been on the road for years)
I had just passed the brenzet round-about and just hit the brenzet straight towards Ashford, looking in my wing mirror i see that there is a small trail of cars behind me and my miss's, no biggy, im not is a rush.
i was at the peak of the brenzet hill about 1/2 way down the road and checked behind me once more and realise its no small trail, OHHH not at all, there where cars queuing so far behind me i couldnt see the end of them, and at that moment i realised and shouted
"KING OF THE ROAD BABY,WHooooooo"
and from that moment forward till i got home, i had a grin on my face so big it hurt.
And the best thing of all, there was to much oncoming traffic to overtake me, and i wasnt leaving any room for people to pass.

TerraTips: Xbox open tray Error

I thort i was rather lucky to get one of the later versions of the xbox with Hdmi ports and a benQ dvd drive.
Ive had my xbox a little over a year now ands it been all good and has out lived many of my friends Xboxs with no problems, but recently it has been playing up. When i insert a disk, it just repeatedly come up with "open tray" when really its supposed to be reading the disk ive just put into, After opening and closing the tray many many times it might decide to wake up and read the disk.

But my new technique has solved my problem!

SLAP THE SHIT OUT OF IT (not literally =P)

Lay your Xbox horizontally and tap the top fast and firmly when you insert your disk
it don't work every time but, mine usually spins up within 3 trys now

i only found this out after losing my temper with it and bashing the shit outta of it with my controller, and shouting at it.


also install your most played games onto your hard drive it you have the room to save the wear on your dvd drive

TerraTips: Making Tea

We all know how to make a cup of tea, if you dont then i worry for you!

but a few tips to make that tea taste a little bit nicer

• Put milk and sugar in before water
• Let the water stop boiling in the kettle before you pour it into the Cup (this stops the water from burning the tea leafs, same with coffee)
• Loose leafs taste the nicest :)
• Dont leave you teabag/leafs brewing to long, unless you like a strong tea.
• Try different Variations of tea, there are hundreds
• High Grade tea's taste nicer with high grade water
• Use a little hot water to swirl around the cup to pre-warm it
• A pot of tea is always nicer
  

Enjoy :)

Unfit isnt the word!

Now im not trying to show off or anything but i "did" consider myself a Grafter, id work hard and get anything done.

Whoooooaaaa!
ive just been digging a few foundation holes and, it looks like i just got out the shower or summing.

I need to get back inshape for this summer XD

(i was never in shape in the 1st place HA!)

TerraView: Logitech MX518

Mice! you know the little bit of equipment you properly used to navigate to this blog. We all take them for granted and forget how important they achally are for the use of your Pc/laptop

Time for an Upgrade?
If you play FPS games every now and then, but aren't the type for staying up late, eating nothing but junk and chugging caffeine drinks, the Logitech MX518 isn't for you, and you would probably just be better off with any regular 800 dpi mouse. For the more serious gamer, it has a perfect combination of a comfortable design and performance that can seriously improve your game play in Fps or any other game. At around £30, the MX518 is an affordable weapon for your arsenal, and is highly recommended.


For gamers this is an essential piece of kit and effects gameplay hugely. Not being a fan of wireless this mouse is the daddy of wired mice in my personal opinion. Ive owned one of these since 2005 and have never doubted or had trouble with it and its still running strong!



It looks good, comes with a nice looong cable, Performs To the highest standards and its not smuthered in pointless wheels and buttons, its the perfect choice and will last you for PC's to come.
