@JoErNanO if that pacrim team had the presence of mind to accept each other's answers and pump their reps up, it would be hard to keep the lid on it

Gayot Fow

6:17 PM

@JoErNanO we actually finished the 1st 99 cantos and I would agree that the Florentine dialect is ponderously daunting. I might have to try the next 99 at some point.

Gayot Fow

Will Eminem fail his landing interview and get removed from the UK?

Nean Der Thal

7:13 PM

@GayotFow you there?

Gayot Fow

@NeanDerThal Yes brother :)

Nean Der Thal

tell me mate..

coffee filter sizes, 1 is the smallest.. 4 is the largest.. correct? u know about that?

or is it the opposite?

Gayot Fow

To my mind coffee filtre sizes should conform to western cultural perceptions

But let me check for you...........

Nean Der Thal

i think i got it.. just now!

Gayot Fow

Nean Der Thal

7:17 PM

the exact photo i just found!

Gayot Fow

It must be then :)

Nean Der Thal

last time i got them, they were too large.. i do not need them at home, i just need them on the move for this manual coffee maker..

dripper

Gayot Fow

7:29 PM

Can't you just order a latte or cappuccino?

Nean Der Thal

no..

wake up, boil some water in the heater..

by the time i wash up.. i just put the dripper on top of a cup, and a filter and some coffee..

last thing you should do is order a coffee in a hotel.. never tastes good.. room service i mean

Gayot Fow

OH! You didn't tell me that part. No I would never drink coffee upon arising.

I get my 250 ml bottle of water and take a small sip and then put in 2 alka-seltzer tablets

Nean Der Thal

you love drugs man.. cool

Gayot Fow

7:48 PM

@NeanDerThal Well sir...... What is coffee?

Nean Der Thal

coffee is liquid light E

Gayot Fow

Alka-seltzer has the same kick, but is also good for your heart :)

Karlson

Alka-Seltzer?

I've never found it a stimulant

Gayot Fow

@Karlson yes. take it every morning. and then another 250 ml bottle of water with Berocca :)

Karlson

B vitamins

Nean Der Thal

7:56 PM

just do E then..

Gayot Fow

Plus 20 mg of D3 every evening

Along with 40 mg of simvastatin

JoErNanO

8:23 PM

@GayotFow's a collector. He's got them all.

Nean Der Thal

@JoErNanO be nice, he is a pharmacist..

JoErNanO

"Pharmacist"

Is that what you kids are calling them now?

Nean Der Thal

@JoErNanO not me,, i am no kid.. unfortunately :/

JoErNanO

You're a kid inside.

Nean Der Thal

I wish..

Gayot Fow

8:54 PM

We didn't even start in with the heavy stuff yet

Relaxed

The heavy stuff ? Is this the Silk Road 3.0 now ?

It's certainly travel-related…

Gayot Fow

Stuff like Zopiclone and Buscopan :) Gabapentin etc etc LOL

HEY

that reminds me, I watched Michael Wood's documentary on Alexander the Great

earlier today

And it shows him going through border controls and NO BLOOD TEST

So that's the answer to @pnuts bounty question

Relaxed

Not sure I understand everything, which border is that ? Kurdistan ? Did that exist at the time of Alexander the Great ?

And how did they get this rare footage?

Gayot Fow

he's locating the battlefield which is in present day kurdistan

are you being a smart ass? :)

Relaxed

A bit, it's late, I think it's allowed

Gayot Fow

9:00 PM

OK, that's fine

the border control is a joke

Normal Human

This NAA reminded me that I'm still out of flags here: travel.stackexchange.com/a/54249

Gayot Fow

I should answer the question and put a screen shot of the border formalities

@Relaxed do you want to do it instead? Or you @JoErNanO

Relaxed

No, no, do it, do it

Gayot Fow

I will put in a screen shot and say it's fair use :)

LOL there it is

Three british passports and two Americans

Q: Supplying your own needle for Blood test for a Kurdistan residency permit

For the blood test (if still required) (see Current blood test requirement for Kurdistan residency permit) can one supply one’s own needle? Details of what is involved, in medical terms, would also be appreciated.

@Relaxed you had a fair shot at doing it

JoErNanO

9:21 PM

@GayotFow It's your answer man. Plus you need the rep for the competition.

@NormalHuman Please post something on TSE so I can upvote it and help you get more flags. :)

Gayot Fow

@JoErNanO yes, I can simply turn around and push that rep into a new bounty LOL

Normal Human

@JoErNanO Thanks, but this wouldn't be fair game and in any event, it takes 2000 rep to get just one more flag/day.

It's far easier to earn larger quota by flagging: every 10 helpful flags add one more.

Gayot Fow

@NormalHuman, you could easily answer this one. Honestly, it's a laugh.

Q: Is it necessary to book a ferry ticket in advance in Sep. for Greece?

I want to go from Athens to Chania (Crete island) by the night ferry on Sep.12, 2015. I cannot pay online! The payment is never successful. So, possibly i should give up and just buy the ticket one day or two days before from the agency?

greece

2 hours later…

@AnkurBanerjee well i'm still on the road in china so i won't get it until i get home. as to whether it's arrived or not, the GFW blocks the sites on which people would usually notify me
