New (Type of) String Day! Elixir Nanoweb Super Lights
« on: May 20, 2008, 04:08:02 PM »
Hooray for new strings, I got them through the post after coming home from my exam, carrying a Subway.

I'm also getting a Miracle Man set from Tim, so I'mm be putting them into my RG08LTD as well as this and we'll see how these fair out!

Here's a little info on them:

And a picture (my computer isn't recognising my USB so I used a picture from the net):
"Would you like some lemon oil?"
"Oh, no thanks, I don't eat fruit."

Too much information, Jonny!  :wink:

You're obviously still in exam mode - "if I just put in a few extra words I can stretch it out to a whole side of A4".

You're quite right Philly, I have just stepped out of my Module 5 Biology, with genes and all that gobble-dee-stuff. And the last question was an essay. It was fun. Not really, but that's the natural sarcastic reply.

Hope you're good Philly! I'm extremely excited for some reason but should be crying to be honest as I have four exams next week in the space of 4 days, two being on one day and two other on separate days.

Yes, I have wrote too much even in this post! Hmm.. I'll be doing Maths on Friday so I guess I'll be calculating than typing- so that's good! Yes? Maybe. Hmm.

Depends. If you come on the forum after that 5p34k1ng 1n num83r5 or a(lgebraically), we might start worrying...

I am interested to hear how these strings compare to what you are used to, and other things you notice about them. That said, get through the exams, first - eh?

Of course, of course. I've got Economics, Biology and Maths and re-sits too! My, my, it's a challenge. But I'm ploughing through alright right now. Three down, eight to go!

UPDATE: ALL my USB drives have failed! I can't even plug in my Toneport anymore, or phone, or webcam or camera. Absolutely- LAME!

I had an essay in French at the end of a 3H30 (net) exam where we'd had trouble with various tape decks not working properly, setting us back somewhat. Take that! :lol:
That's the worst of my exams out of the way now, though. Three more to go.

I always quite enjoyed biology out of the sciences I got at GCSE. My only trouble was that the names for various things seemed to come out of Dr. Seusse books.

Dr sterling examined the foetus
Fearing that it might eat us
he dug a great big moat
to thwart the zygote
and he travelled via mitoses
to the land of halitosis
where meiosis
would divide...
Oh this is
just terrible.

I'll stop now
I won't even take a final bow
But I have one less problem
What the $%&#'s a hydrofluorocarbon
When it's at home?
I too use chicken as a measurement.

Don't worry, I got a U for coursework, and fell asleep in one of my geography exams due to returning from Donnington the night before. Think I came out with a C or something

LOL.. I got CDDD in my AS (now BCCD due to re-sits and more re-sits to come)

And I know what hydrofluorocarbons are! Damaging the ozone and what not.

Is that not chlorofluorocarbons? :wink: (just tying to find the longest single word for something that threatens the environment...)
