Lol... not a midget, I'm 5'11.

I don't look like "a fat bloke". More like someone who could do with losing a few pounds.

I'm trying to slim down and tone up.

EDIT: Great job with the dieting Sam. You look much much healthier now.

HAHA, what kind of dumb fuck spends actual money (£4.08 or 480 MSP in this case) on clothing for their game avatar to wear? A sucker is born every minute, eh Tigger?

Nobody has time to properly take care of this place, I'm afraid

Holy shit, you live in paradise.

Is house pricing high where you live? How much would it cost to rent a house?

Here in Holland, man, housing is fucked UP.

I don't know, I have never rented a house. My parents own their house. That's where I'm right now (during the summer... for a few more weeks). In Vaasa where I study I paid about 400€ / month for my 30m2 apartment.

EDIT: my farther's estimation for small somewhat new house rent in the area we live in: 1000-1500€.

Aw, so that's also pretty expensive.

Man, my parents back in the day (27 years orso ago) bought a whole house for about 40.000 euro (90.000 dutch guilders in those days) or something. Gawd, I wish that was still possible.

Well I had to be behind the camera. Obviously.

The cool thing is that there are no beggars in here. The first time I ever saw one was when I went to Helsinki. And then later in Tokyo. But Japanese beggars are polite enough not to beg.

Hehe, inner-city Scotland's great. My town has pretty bad heroin problems as well, know at least one old school friend who has OD'd on the stuff. In my street alone we've had two operating drug dealers, oh the joy of being woken up in the middle of the night by the police raiding the flats across the road! :D

Needless to say those pics of yours look pretty fucking idyllic to me Hung. Certainly a completely different world to the one I inhabit! :thumbs:
