My wife is due next Wednesday, but the doctor thinks she may need to have labor induced today because of a few high blood pressure readings. Oooooh the suspense is killing me!! I'm on the way to the hospital in a few. After today, yoy may not see me on the bottom of your FL for a while...totally worth it. Wish us luck


Congratulations!! I wish you and your better half all the best!!
 
how about this Wedding Rings ?

Well... it turned out that the rings were of the wrong design. My better half had ordered another design all together, so we got in touch with the jeweler and they took care of the problem alot quicker than i thought. new rings are delivered express to us at no extra charge. No carbon fibre for me tho, but i'll still be rockin Tungsten Carbide but with rose wood inlay instead. Looks even better.



On a sidenote however..



Thought i should show you the hammer i got.

it weighs in at 42grams/ 1,48oz. Not a small piece by any stretch of the imagination.
That is a very nice piece of jewelry. Knot work looks a little ruff, is that just the picture?
Either way 👍 Be mindful of when you ask for his help, might get a shocking results. :P

Dude congratz. just my opinion, unless your wife or kids life is at steak don't let them induce, you don't want the kid gooy in the middle. High BP at the end of term is not un heard of, out of control high is bad but only ten to twentty points is normal. Anticipation will do that.
I still remember the first day/night home with my boy. We put him in the crib, sat down on the couch looked at each other and said, what do we do with it? and why did they let us go home with him?!?!?
 
nearly finish now just need to paint it .
Looking good Soren. One day maybe I will have a man cave and be able to afford a setup like that. :)

Best of luck. I am sure everything will be fine and high blood pressure is not that unexpected to be honest. Enjoy the times when the baby is sleeping, thats when you can get your GT6 time in, i mean sleep and relax and do nothing at all.

@LordJCS, your wedding ring sounds very nice. Mine is a silver ring with gold band in the centre. Nothing too fancy but something that doesn't show the scratches that much either which is perfect for my work profession.

No, you're right. It's a bit rough, but that's why decided to get it.

But when you see it from a distance, it really pops.

And besides, who am i to judge. It's a childhood friend who made this for me.

Tungsten Carbide is pretty much scratch proof. Although it's quite brittle. You can break it with ease due to the hardness of the material. And in my profession it serves as a safety feature as the ring won't bend and squeeze my finger. It's more likely to shatter and fall off instead of hurting my finger..

I use your Subaru BRZ S '12 (450PP SH) for the Beginners' Level Non Racing Car Challenge for a very nice drive and a good win, and it handles very good :cheers:.

I use your Lotus Esprit V8 '02 (500PP SH) for the Intermediate Level Non Racing Car Challenge for a nice drive and a good win, and it handles so well going in an out of the corners :cheers:.

I use your Peugeot Vision Gran Turismo (699PP RH) Expert Level Racing Car Challenge, and it was a challenge but it got the job done and won, this car handles so well using a wheel :cheers:.

I used your Supra 3.0 GT Turbo A '88 (450pp) in the beginners. Easy win

I used your Lambo Muira P400 (500pp) in the Intermediate. Easy win

Still working on the Expert which I think may take awhile. I think I have been playing too much Project Cars
Try the Stealth Model Audi R10 tune. That should work a treat. :)

Edit: This car might need an alien to get gold on this event. I just tried it and it is quite tricky. The competition do not make errors and are super quick. The Peugeot VGT car is definitely quick enough as long as you stay on the track :)

Excellent :) Even a drift car found its way in there! I am pleased to see the McLaren GT3 version too. That was one of my favourite GT3 conversions (along with the FITT entry). Thanks for taking part.
