The Cabin Crew
This is my first story on this site and It's not a very long one.Just thought I'd put it out there and get some feed back!
The sea bashed against the beach with a violent rage.The curving blue monster kept beating against the smooth sand again and again.The moonlight and the wind transformed the water into a roaring metallic sheet.Hidden between the thick grass of the sand dunes is an aged wooden shack beaten by years of salty sea wind and faded by hours of scorching sunshine.
Tonight the sky is angry with rolling grey clouds hanging low over the coast.Inside the shack there is no storm but there is a sea of people.Hot bodies pushed chest to chest, back to back and hip to hip fill the bar while the music and the smell of alcohol fill the air.
Cathy's not pressed up against anyone, or shouting into someone's ear about something funny that's happened last weekend ,or eyeing up some wanna-be surfer guy from across the room, she's sitting on the step next to the stage with her sun kissed legs hanging over the end.A small smile is resting on her glossy lips as she looks at her older sister Ada standing center stage in the warm glow of the spotlight with her battered ukulele in her hands. Ada's eyes are closed and she wearing the exact same smile as Cathy as she strums out some song she told Cathy reminds her of sunshine.She can feel the swell of excitement coming from the people around her.Cathy can almost see the happiness radiating from her body.The band plays their final chord and everyone cheers.Ada's head falls back and a soft laugh escaped her lips.She looks like a goddess with her long slender neck and thick amber curls tumbling down her back.
Cathy looks out into the crowd and sees so many familiar faces but nobody she really has any desire to talk to.Over the summer Cathy had changed so much that the only person she could be around was Ada.Everyone else who had claimed to be her friend had left her behind in a mad rush of beer and sex and growing up.Cathy had stopped right in her tracks and faded into the dark place where only her sister dared to venture to keep her company now and again.
Ada skips straight off stage to dive into Cathy's arms. She buries her face in Cathy's sickly blue hair and giggles.
"You smell nice."she whispers into Cathy's hair
"You were amazing."Cathy says as she pushes her sister gently out of her personal space.
"I think you were the only one who noticed. Everyone else is a little out of it if you ask me."Ada says as she slides onto the step next to her sister.
Samson comes running of stage drumsticks in hand with the world's biggest grin spreading across his face.He misjudges the distance and stops just in time before almost poking out Cathy's eye.The smile drops from his face immediately and he straightens up,shoving his drumsticks into his back pocket.
"So..Sorry Cathy!"Samson says looking down at his tatty converse.
"Catch you later A?" He says as he slips off to join the crowd and let the next band on.
Cathy sighed as she seemed to have that depressing effect on people. Even people as ridiculously happy as Samson.
"They'll realize your not made of glass someday" Ada says with a half smile and nudges Cathy in the ribs.
"Well it took you long enough and you're my sister.Poor old Samson has no chance really."Cathy gets up to leave.
"I think he's just got a crush on you since you died your hair blue.He's got a thing for freaky girls."Ada doesn't laugh but Cathy does and then she freezes.
"Ada?"Cathy says with a serious warning in her voice.
"Yes Cathy my dear?" she says with a grin growing wider and wider across her lips.
"No"Cathy says with a severe finality.
"Yes" Ada begins laughs uncontrollably, falling back on the steps as the new band start up their first song.
"You'd swear I'd just told you you had to eat glass for the rest of your life!"She says with a slightly angry tone to her voice.
There's a long pause where Cathy just listens to the song as it's building momentum.
"Sorry.."Cathy says leaning against the wall and looking down at her ratty shoes.
"It's not a crime to like a boy or even like that a boy likes you."Ada says in a quiet suggesting voice.
Cathy says nothing and for one second wonders what it would be like to run her fingers through his soft black curls and kiss his smiling lips.That second was all Ada needed to decide that Cathy has a thing for a slightly clumsy teenage drummer.
"Wow!..This is both cool and slightly weird cause yanno he's my band mate and your my sister..i mean ya I thought about it but now it's.."Ada's blabbing is stopped in its tracks with Cathy's hand resting on her mouth.
"shhh.."Cathy says with a smile as she watches the comical expression on Ada's face.
"He's out at the truck if you wanna go say hi..." She says in a mocking casual voice that reeks of guilt.Cathy narrows her eyes but says nothing.Instead she turns and steps out into the dimly lit hallway and Ada gives a barely audible shriek of excitement over the music and the wave of voices in the bar.
Cathy wasn't really sure what was making her legs move towards the back door but none the less they were moving.Her brain hadn't even realized what she was actually about to do.It seemed there wasn't a thought in her head but her heart had registered something and was beginning to beat double time as if it was making up for all the lost time when it had been asleep.
Ada was starting to calm again with her ukulele in her hand walking lazily after Cathy.The back door swung open with a violent thud and the wind whipped Cathy's blue hair across her face.She couldn't see a truck or a smiling black haired boy anywhere but Ada took her hand and led her away for The Cabin and into the dark night.After a few seconds of stumbling Ada's hand left Cathy's and a loud knocking noise that matched the sound of her heart announced that they were at the truck.
Ada's hand's guided her into the shelter, aiding her up the steps.Cathy froze.Those weren't Ada's hands.She wondered where her Ukulele had gone.It seemed Cathy's brain had kicked in. She pushed her hair out of her face once she was sheltered from the wind and the first thing she saw was Samson's unsure smile.
"You okay Cathy?"He asked with a tone of concern in his voice.Cathy was hyper aware of his hand on the small of her back.
"Mmhm.."Was all she could manage before they took the final few step into The Truck.It was actually a rusty old mini bus with most the seats ripped out that my sisters band used to tour around the near-by towns and cities.It's pretty cosy and warm inside but Cathy can still feel the wind rocking the bus slightly.
Ada is down the back of the bus apparently deep in conversation with Jason and Dan the Bass and guitar players in the band.Cathy groans inwardly when she realizes what she's done and that she can't think of anything to say to this poor boy.After a prolonged silence Cathy turns to Samson suddenly.
"Do you like my hair?"Cathy asks abruptly, the words flowing like diarrhea from her mouth.
"Oh ya.I think it's pretty cool!I mean you must have had a lot of balls to dye your hair blue."He looks everywhere except at Cathy.
"Well apart from Ada I don't really care what anyone thinks and her insults don't count cause she's my sister."Cathy says in a rush as she plonks down into one of the seats.Samson pauses for a minute before signaling for her to push in.Cathy's trapped now and Samson is running his hand through his curls and Cathy is just staring at him.He looks up and catches her which causes her heart to stop for a second or two .
"I like your hair too."she says quietly as if she didn't intend for Samson to hear her.
Samson begins to laugh and Cathy starts to become a little paranoid.
"What?"Cathy asks, a wary smile on her lips.Samson's laughter is infectious and the next time she tries to speak giggles erupt from her lips.After awhile Samson takes a deep breath and a calm settles around them.
"What was all that about?"Cathy asks with a grin spread across her face.
"I was just thinking about how ridiculously awkward this is and how far it is from what I had imagined when Ada said she'd help me out."He says flatly looking out into the black behind Cathy.
This doesn't seem to faze her at all."What had you imagined?" Cathy whispers afraid if she's too loud his answer will run away in a fright.
"Amm..ha..let's see.Perfect like in every romcom ever made"He says dropping his head low covering his face with his big rough hands.
"Wait!So you're like a closet Sandra Bullock fan?."I say resting my head on the seat in front of me and staring down at his bush of curls.
Cathy can see his body begin to shake with laughter and he sits up smiling right at her.
"How did you know? and while you're at it..tell me how is it that everytime you say something it makes me like you more than I did just a few seconds before?" He shakes his head back and forth in dismay and Cathy's cheeks go scarlet red which she deems to be such a girl thing to do which makes her blush even more with embarrassment.
"We'll then I better not give you a hug or you might just fall in love." she giggle
"Kissing you would probably overload my heart.I'd be a goner."he grins
"We best keep a safe distance from each other in that case."Cathy smiles and shuffles away from him till her back is pressed against the cold window.
"Wouldn't want to cause myself and injury.I mean what would the band do with a love sick drummer?" he says as he inches closer to Cathy so that his smell of salty air and hot summers days mixed with wood and rain fills her nose.
"I..amm."Cathy was losing her train of thought as her eyes became fixed on Samson's ever approaching lips.Her vision was becoming blurry and all he could make out were his warm brown eyes and his floppy black curls.
"Then again it's nothing a band-aid can't fix." he smiles slightly his eyes fixed on her glossy pink lips.
"We'll see about that"Cathy whispers against his soft warm lips.

Unintentional But New
Childish delight had always been a part of my nature. But the sudden wave that washed over me was unexpected. I knew that it was an attempt to escape from the drastic change of atmosphere that had taken place when Ethan and I started talking about his mom. Yet I couldn't suppress the urge and ended up running back into the house, stealing Alexis' chips, then running off in the direction of my room.
As I ascended the stairs, I noticed Ethan walk blankly back in, a confused expression on his face as he surveyed the chaos that he'd been pushed into. I waved at him madly and he released a sigh, rolling his eyes to himself as he followed me slowly.
Grabbing hold of his hand once he was within a good distance, I forcefully raced him up towards my room. I knew that my craziness had temporarily washed away that awkward environment that had been created just a few moments ago. But if I kept it long enough, it wouldn't come back for a while which is just what I needed.
"Lynette, what are you-"
"I'm taking you to my room. I think you might like it."
Ethan frowned in confusion. "Haven't I seen it before?"
I didn't pause and didn't answer the question either but instead continued my effort of dragging him towards my room. Nothing he would say could possibly get him out of this and it's a good thing Ethan knew that because he didn't stop me.
Once we neared the end of the hallway, I turned in the direction of my room and leaned against the door. "You ready?" I asked with a grin. Ethan rolled his eyes and muttered, "I saw it that night, but okay."
"It's not my room that I'm emphasising on but the view it provides," I said, then swung it open. My room isn't that big, fairly medium-sized. To the right is my working desk, on top of it sits my baby laptop which I adore. My bed is propped to the right, comfy looking and rather spacious. But straight ahead were the glass doors that opened up to the balcony.
Tugging lightly on his finger, I urged him to follow me in the direction of the balcony and he did. My hands curled around the handles, pulling the doors open on either side of me and we stepped out.
The gasp which I received from Ethan was satisfying. The view is quite magnificent as the whole estate of the Brooks' could be seen from my room. The swimming pool on the side, and the various gardens shining in all their beauty as the sun shone down on them.
Smiling, I looked at Ethan and asked, "What do you think?"
I felt him squeeze my hand lightly and looked down at me, the calm blue depths of his eyes causing my heart to skip a beat.
"It's beautiful," he whispered, his voice low and its effect causing my heart to pound furiously against my chest.
I could feel the blood rush up to my cheeks, as if he'd complimented me instead of the view. Unintentionally, my gaze moved down to his lips and I found myself leaning into him, my hand tracing patterns on his palm.
It was in that second that another figure darted into view from the corner of my eye. Turning my head the slightest bit, I looked down on the person that was watching us from the land below.

He was the son of Assemblyman George Sanford and Louisa (Gibbs) Sanford. At age twelve, he became a clerk in a store in Glens Falls while attending the common schools in winter. Two years later he became a shipping clerk in a wholesale lumber business in Albany, working there for six years during the navigation season. In winter, he attended school, or went lumbering in Genesee County, New York and Potter County, Pennsylvania; and attended for one year Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. About 1857, he removed to Syracuse, and became a merchant, engaging in the lumber and salt trade. In January 1861, he married Helen Breese Stevens (born 1839). In the spring of 1862, he removed to Oneida, in Madison County. He was Vice President of the Oneida Savings Bank; and a director of the Oneida Valley National bank, and the Rome and Clinton Railroad.
He was a delegate to the 1864 Democratic National Convention; Supervisor of the Town of Verona in 1865 and 1866; a member of the New York State Assembly (Oneida County, 3rd D.) in 1867; a delegate to the 1868 Democratic National Convention; and a member of the New York State Senate (19th D.) in 1870 and 1871.

...we continue..
The first thing after you open the vial of paint is you stir a and mix well.
glow particles are heavy and have the tendency to go to settle.
Then, using the wooden stick (sharpen it if you need to) and with the help of the rim of the vial you load a generous drop, bead, or such onto the tip:
You basically deposit a drop of paint over the area. Work as fast as you can, the paint likes to dry and becomes pasty.
If this happens return the paint to the vial, mix and repeat.
Another drop, as if we are doing a rear sight job...

By Patrick Brenning from Alaska on Apr 29, 2011
These guys are excellent. Each and every order I have placed has been delivered quickly and accurate. I find here to have the best prices, they"re not always the lowest but when you figure s&h they usually are. The one time I did return an item, it was handled fast and my exchange was received the same week! Their customer service is excellent, prices very good.

I am truley amazed at the level of detail, number of products, & customer feedback you guys have on the site. They make it really easy for a new uninformed customer to make an informed decision on products and the website is easy to navigate in. I recently made my 3rd and largest purchase last night almost $1000 in goods.
3. +++++++
By Glenda P. from Ann Arbor, MI on Feb 12, 2010
Arrived very quickly, and works perfectly well with my computer. I was very pleased to find such a great alternative! Great company, I have already recommended them to others. Thanks!
4. Seems Little Expensive But Cheaper
By Jay from Maine on Aug 29, 2009
I was a longtime online purchaser till I stumbled across brilliantstore.com on pricewatch' website. They've yet to be beat on prices. There have been times I've found they were about two or three dollars more than some one, but once you read a little further you'll see that brilliantstore includes free FEDEX shipping for items above ??50! Can't beat them. Fast delivery, order status online is accurate and real time. I'll recommend these guys to my friends.
5. Low Price and Good Product
By Neil from Utah on Oct 12, 2008
Prices are almost always near the lowest end. Combine it with the speed and free or near free shipping, and it makes for almost the best combination. I never needed customer service, so can't say much about that. The website is excellent, stuff is easy to find and order, specs are right there, no misleading info anywhere. Everything is spelled out for you. You can even post and read reviews of the products they carry.

Come on everyone
@Mr. Raw
Unfortunately, I can't directly introduce anyone to my friends. However, you can just add those who have given links to their DA accounts.
To keep on topic with the thread. Here's a pic of Kuromuhime that I haven't posted yet. It's slightly different from the pic I used for the Octo Con 2 report.
And I would also like to take this chance to post the banner of the next convention that I would share on this thread. Would attend it with some friends on day 2 (Nov 17).
There's also another convention that Kewu Sempai told me about, happening on Nov. 9.. but not sure to attend it because I'm already running out of funds.

Thanks for the info.
Ah, so that's the event at Trinoma that Rebecca is telling me yesterday night. It's near enough, will probably attend it.
Do you mean the Asuna cosplayer at the Otaku Expo Reloaded banner? Uhmm, that's Yazi and she's one of the speacial guests there. It's not easy to take pics of special guests, because they're often surrounded by an army of photographers. But I'll try.
Otaku Expo Reloaded (Nov 16-17) I'm sure to attend. What I'm not sure to attend is the anime convention happening on Nov. 9th, because I only have enough funds to attend one convention on November. ><

Just got home from Otaku Expo Reloaded. It's a tiring but fun day. Got lucky to see Misa and Yazi on stage. ** ^^
I'll have the pics up in a day or two. For now, the Liddo needs some serious rest (2 minutes before 11 pm here). So sleepy. ><

Otaku Expo Reloaded
This convention is sort of a repeat of the Otaku Expo anime convention that was held last August 18 at SM Megamall. This time however, it seems some people wanted a bigger venue. So the convention is now being done at SMX Convention Center. Otaku Expo Reloaded is scheduled at Nov 16-17. Function Room 2 of SMX. We attended the second day.
Without any further delay, here are the pics:
Went inside Function Room 2
Upon arriving, I had the feeling that we must get inside Function Room 2 right away. We bought some tickets and headed inside. And just in time to see taiwanese cosplayers Misa (Shana) and Yazi (Asuna) on stage. They are so pretty. Sorry for the pic quality. >< These are the best that I could do at that moment. Taking of pics is rushed because they are about to leave.
Ok, now that the rush to see the taiwanese cosplayers has ended. We proceeded at a more relaxed pace on walking. ",)
Saw someone that I know. It's Eilene, sales representative at Vogue Royal Cosplay Shop. This shop is one of the better places to go to if you're looking for cute costumes.
. .
It's a little crowded inside. So we decide to go outside for awhile.
Hallway area
Inu x Boku cosplayers near the door. Anne as Karuta Roromiya and Yssa as Shirakiin Ririchiyo.
Kinomoto Sakura cosplay, she's cute. Unable to ask her name though, it's crowded in the part of the hallway where I found her.
And walking a little further. I saw two of my friends. First is Tiana, cosplaying as Mistress Jeanne from Shaman King and Aimee cosplaying as female Kirito. Haven't seen them for awhile, so I'm glad meet them here. Tiana just came back from the province, and she gave me a souvenir from that place. ",)
And here's some more cosplayers from the sama area.
Rikka Takanashi cosplay by Charlotte
Riko Mine cosplay by Cess
Now, for this cosplayer my notes are a bit jumbled. Not sure if her nickname is Ryutan or she's doing a cosplay of a character named Ryutan. Anyway, I'd send her an email to clarify things. Might edit this part later.
. .
Shingeki no Kyojin cosplayers. Avegail as Sasha Blouse and Krishea as Mikasa Ackerman. Sasha does not have a potato anymore because she has already finished eating it? (just kidding).
Grand Archer Rena cosplay by Jek
Went back inside Function Room 2
It's now approximately past 2 pm in the afternoon. Still a bit crowded, but let's go in anyway. **
Asuna cosplay by Valerie.
Gothic Haruhi cosplay by Nehlee. And that's a nice smile.
Girls und Panzer items on display.
Karaoke Contest
Performance by Nikki. This video is posted here with her permission.
I have another video of a girl singing Fuwa Fuwa time quite nicely. But I was not able to talk to her, and I think it's not right to post a video without permission from the performer. Sorry. ><
After watching the singers on stage, I proceeded to the sides of Function Room 2. Looking for more cosplayers to add to this writeup.
Saw TK. Kaoru near the wall. Cosplaying as Misaki Mei from Another. That's a creepy stare into the distance. O_O
From the wall, I slowly moved to the shops of Function Room 2. Slowly and carefully, because it's so crowded.
Found Kazukiji cosplaying as Kouha Ren from Magi. At first I thought this character is a girl. Turns out that he's a boy with androgynous characteristics.
Slowly moved out from the crowded area and to the stall that gives free yogurt. One of my companions (Karen) got some free stuffs just by signing up. XD
Shyla cosplaying as Rikka (school unfirom version) from Chuunibyou. She just finished getting some yougurt from the stall.
And also near the yogurt stall, I saw one of the more unique cosplays of the day.
Therese cosplaying as Alissa Tekken. So cute! ^-^
Received text messages from some friends that they are on their way. Decided that being out on the hallway would be better. So I could see them right away. It's now a little past 3 pm in the afternoon.
Maid cosplay by ZOE
Alice in Wonderland cosplay by Shaila and Archer cosplay by Mecero. They are brother and sister. I guess, cosplaying is something that runs in the family
And once again met Valerie, the Asuna cosplayer that I saw inside FR2. She's also an AKB48 fan. With her is her friend Rheny.
Near the end of the hallway, there are several Date a Live cosplayers. And one of them is my friend Eun-Eun. She's cosplaying as Yoshino.
Sad because she lost Yoshinon! ><
. . .
She calmed down and started smiling after we told her that we'd help look for it.
Group photo. The giant zoids cosplay is working to gather donations for victims of typhoon Yolanda. We gave him some coins. ",)
It's starting to get crowded in the hallway, so we decided to head back to FR2. Met some more cosplayers on the way.
Saw another Inu x Boku cosplay. Haru as Karuta, and Yukari as Ririchiyo.
Shayla again, the Rikka cosplayer that I've met near the Yogurt booth. ^^
And saw another friend. Wendy with her maid cosplay. She told me before the convention that she would style her wig this way, made it easier to identify her.
Maid cosplay by Cathy.
Homura Akemi cosplay
Last shot outside is Rio cosplaying gothic Haruhi and Kathyrn with a lolita style costrip.
Back inside Function Room 2
It is now almost 4:30 in the afternoon.
Decided to visit the Ozine Maid Cafe. We can't leave the line, so I just asked cosplayers who passed by if I could take their pic. *
Paula cosplaying as Mirai Suenaga
Took a pic of Karen. Cosplaying as Mayuyu from AKB0048. She's also one of my friends.
Nicole with her Mirai Kuriyama cosplay.
. .
Ozine Maid Cafe
Leny and Erika (red wig), cosplaying as... maids of course.
Ok, kidding aside. A big congratulations to Leny for being interviewed by people from Net 25. She's scheduled to appear on TV sometime this week. As what can be expected from the #1 maid in this cafe. Nezumi-chan (Leny) has a strong appeal to many!!
Erika's pet neko
Maid cafe experience:
The time is now past 5 pm in the afternoon. And I saw another friend, just as we got out of the maid cafe.
Sonoda-Koharu-chan cosplaying as Hanji Zoe from Shingeki. This time she brought a skull instead of her "Titans" book.
. . . .
Hanji-san can sing too. Karen and Koharu-chan exchanged props. Karen has the skull and is taking pics with other cosplayers nearby. @
And one last pic with the skull. This is slightly different from the other shot that I already took. And I consider it one of my best for the day.
Said goodbye to Koharu-chan, and went outside to meet Cristel and Mary Grace. Received text that they've already arrived.
Perona cosplay by Cristel, and Alisa from God Eater Burst cosplay by Mary Grace. She made the gun all by herself.
. . . .
Cristel also showed me another one of her drawings. Hmm, looks like a character from an online game.
Kimono cosplay by Chinx
Yuno cosplay by Nicole.
It's now evening. Quite tired at this point of the day. Decided to go back inside FR2 for the last time.
Inside Function Room 2
Misa and Yazi area.
Saw Eun-chan again. Yoshino is still not tired. ^^
Told me that her companions are watching the cosplay performance on stage. And she's headed to the snack area to get a drink.
I tried going near the stage area to watch, but it's crowded and I can't get near enough. So I just went to the sides to take some last pics.
Glad that I went to the side because I saw another friend. Jem cosplaying as Sasha from Shingeki. She has plenty of food! Potato girl really likes eating. But seriously, it's fun to see people you haven't seen in a long time. Glad she still remembers me.
And one more Shingeki cosplayer before going out of FR2. Cy cosplaying as Armin. Nice double salute.
Met Angel as I'm going out of FR2. Told me that she came from the Kpop event also being held at SMX.
And last cosplayer pic inside FR2 is Maddie cosplaying as Asuna (school uniform version). First time that I saw this kind of Asuna cosplay. ",)
The friendly people at Psicom booth. They have plenty of magazines. I bought one as a souvenir of this event.
. .
And for the last activity inside. I bought some Misa pictures from Mika. She's the one in charge at the Misa and Yazi area.
And last pic inside SMX is a Hatsune Miku cosplay by Ela. With her is her friend Mai.
And one last pic of my friends before going back to the car.
Goodbye Otaku Expo Reloaded. Hoping to visit again next year. Overall, it has been a nice day.
Pics taken at home:
Keychain given to me by Tiana. Arigatou Tiny-chan.
Otakuzine featuring Date a Live
My Otaku Expo ticket, and the Misa pics sold by Mika.
Well, that's all. Thanks for reading. Next writeup will be about the 8th Christmas Toyfair happening on Dec. 13-15. ",)

Good con report, Liddo-kun. Yoshino by Eun Eun was one of my favorites. Bright, vibrant colors on that cosplay. Leny and Erika are very pretty. Congratulations to Leny! I love Erika's cats, btw. Also, I really liked Nicole as Yuno. She has stunning beauty.

Liddo-Kun: another excellent report.
Unfortunately (technically fortunately, but yeah), there are way too many awesome cosplays for me to comment on any in particular; I'd really like to though, but I can't limit the number to less then, everything, so. . .

As always, say hi to all great cosplayers from me. ^^Too bad that your picture was really blurry on Misa's photo. The little CardCaptor Sakura cosplay was cute, too bad you didn't were able to ask her nickname. Aimee's female Kirito cosplay was great, her swords looked cool, and of course, Charlotte's Rikka REALLY fit into her chuuni character (I hope she won't find that offensive), later, the goth loli Haruhi looked really great. Wendy's maid cosplay was good (she kinda reminded me that loli from Ro-Kyu-Bu, but it's maybe just me), Cristel's Perona was really great, and her drawing... I'm impressed how good it is. ^^ Admit that Nicole's Yuno cosplay had a lot of dangerous charm for you, huh?
As for the stuff; Girls und Panzer photo... more that Ruka's figure aside. He looks really cute. That "A kiss in the rain" doujin looks really great from the cover. Those photos you bought look really great too. ^^

Oil consumption Mk6 Golf GTI TSI
Started by Rowley103 , Sep 06 2016 02:55 PM

Posted 06 September 2016 - 02:55 PM
I have a 2009 VW Golf GTI MK6 and its using much more oil than it used to do. It's recently had a engine rebuild due to my timing tensioner failing completely rebuilding the head, its had a new inlet cam, new VVT unit and new piston rings. Before it used about 1 litre of oil every 10,000 miles now its used around 4.5 litres in nearly 4000 miles since its been rebuilt. I am currently using Millers 5W-40 Nanodrive oil, I have also tried Castrol Edge 5W-30 and 5W-40. It seems to have calmed down slightly with the millers but not massively. The engine runs sweet as a nut its not smoking and sounds fine and does great MPG. The exhaust tips go sutty after not so long but I have been told this is normal on the GTIs. The garage has checked the engine over to find no leaks or anything major that could point towards the oil consumption. They have agreed to fully strip it down but I am wanting to try other measures before this happens. I have tried a engine oil additive to try and reduce it but this hasnt done anything. PCV valve could be a possible problem but there are other symtoms normally with this and my car is doing none of them to suggest its broken. Any pointers will be much appreciated.
Posted 06 September 2016 - 04:40 PM
I'm a Mk5 Diesel man myself and the 1.9 in mine uses next to nothing between services but I've seen loads of posts that seem to confirm that the petrol TSI units have developed a bad reputation for oil consumption generally with many owners complaining.
I believe there have been quite a number of incidents where dealers have carried out work under warranty for what they considered bad oil consumption without first checking with VW and had their costs rejected and they are required to run consumption logs to monitor use and gain head office approval before doing any warranty work.
From what I have read VW seem to consider that 1 litre per 1200miles is normal and they don't even consider claims below 15k miles and if this is true I am rather shocked.
What you say about your previous consumption suggests that yours hadn't been too bad but with the amount of work done (cam+ valves, rings not unusual for cambelt failure ) it will take several thousand miles to run in. As it is the consumption is excessive even using the VW criteria but it might take a few k yet so see how much this improves but I would hope it should return over time to something like previous.
Personally as your garage are currently being helpful and co-operative I would suggest you do nothing further (beyond checking and topping up with a VW approved spec oil) and let them carry out the strip down and any other work they see fit (including the PCV valve if they think fit as that can cause excessive consumption.
Hopefully they will resolve the matter but if not they might start becoming more difficult so I would suggest that you take some steps to safeguard yourself as far as possible and get some verifiable records in place of what has happened thus far, what action they are proposing and future actions in case it all goes pear shaped.
I am not advocating getting into a paper war or even anything particularly formal but verbal exchanges and promises are not going to be any use so I suggest an initial letter and then perhaps e-mail and text messages to follow and to confirm any verbal exchanges of their proposal actions and promises and your expectations.
Hopefully it won't come to it but as the old boy scout motto goes "be prepared"
PS Is there any VW involvement at all, warrant, extended warranty, goodwill etc
Posted 06 September 2016 - 04:49 PM
The oil I am currently using seems to be one that alot of people use when oil consumption is quite high, I have ordered a PCV valve to see if that helps it a little, I am going to continue to run the car as normal keeping an eye on the consumption. If it continues I will get the garage to strip the car to see if they can find anything. The garage are been very cooperative. I hope
It does improve, it does seem to be improving as time goes on. Thanks for your reply.

Hi, I'm new here and looking for an answer to the high oil consumtion, my engine was made (2012 1.4 TSI 160) the day after the crankcase breather (PCV) had a design change. The replacement is £69 so I'm going to do the easy bits first and clean out any gunge in all the associated pipes then change the valve, I'm not sure it is still called a PCV but the dealer has located the part. Has anyone actually managed to cure the excessive oils consumption?
Thanks in advance

Yeah mine seems to have calmed down significantly. I ended up changing my PCV and this made a slight difference, but i also came accross a slight leak but was no where near significant enough for the amount of oil i was using. I ended up changing the oil for a service and i put Millers Nanodrive 5W-40 (which is meant to be good at decreasing oil consumption) in, liqi moli stop leak (for the leak) which was £15 and wynns stop smoke (which apparently decreses oil consumption) which was £5 and this actually seems to have cured it. It seems so much better it still uses a bit which these engines do but its not using as much as before.

I hope you were sitting down when you clocked the £9,000 price attached to Sharp's LC-52XS1E. For it's definitely the sort of thing that might get your average punter feeling a bit faint, especially in the recession. Even a politician would have a hard time putting one of these babies through on expenses, for heaven's sake.
Of course, though, while the 52XS1E might be phenomenally, even ground-breakingly expensive (conveniently forgetting the £12k or more price tags of the very first plasma screens all those years ago), it's also pretty damn interesting. For surely any TV that reckons it can persuade people to part with so much money must have some pretty special talents tucked away up its sleeves.
There are probably three main 'excuses' for the 52XS1E's price. The most instantly obvious of these concerns its build quality. Designed to a no-expense-spared spec by charismatic Japanese design guru Toshiyuki Kita, its bezel is resplendent in a brushed aluminium finish. And the seriously meaty, also-aluminium stand is about as heavy duty - while still being very attractive - as it's possible to get.
The screen is remarkably slender too; just 23mm at its slimmest point. This really reinforces the sense that you've got your hands on a piece of genuinely next-generation technology.
The already positively regal design prowess notches up even higher if you attach another of the 52XS1E's big selling points: the detachable but 2.1-channel speaker 'bar' Sharp has put together - in conjunction with Pioneer, no less. This gently curved bar is clad in the same metallic clothing as the TV, and somehow softens the sharp rectangular lines of the screen to give it a more elegant profile.
The single most important 52XS1E selling point for me, though, is the technology driving its pictures. For it's Sharp's debut LED model, and despite the screen's extreme slenderness, it actually uses 'direct', rear-mounted LED lighting rather than an edge-based system, meaning that it can use local dimming technology to deliver potentially total blackness right alongside extremely bright whites.
Even better still, those whites should look more crisp and natural than most thanks to the 52XS1E's use of RGB dimming rather than the more common - and cheaper - black and white LED dimming system.
Using coloured Light Emitting Diodes should additionally, hopefully, enhance the TV's contrast performance beyond that of even normal LED screens, as well as helping colours look richer and more natural, since the actual illumination point of the TV is in tune with the pixel colour of the source image.
To put some numbers on this, Sharp claims a colour range of 166 per cent of EBU colour systems for the 52XS1E - a really extravagant colour palette that should reveal levels of colour dynamism and subtlety well beyond the capability of most ordinary LCD TVs.
How much?
I'd rather take a Pioneer Kuro over this and keep the change.
Interesting TV with one major disadvantage (not the price), resolution should be more than FullHD for this size.
You could buy TWO 60 inch Kuro's for that much money. Value 0/10.
Didn't you guys hear? Plasma is dead :p
Ouch, glad it doesnt get a TR recommendation.
Interesting from a technological standpoint that LCDs can now match or even beat the best plasmas albeit at a price. Wonder how long it will be before prices get down to a more affordable level?
Well the word "Exclusive" was invented for a reason.
same point was mentioned with the sony x series reviews, about price. but then i doubt the sony is finished in classy aluminium all over.
Anyone know if this can handle moist environments? Thinking about this for the bathroom, just hate it when I need to pee and miss a goal.
@haim: Will you be my friend?.
do you think your views on the 'blacks' would have been the same if this tv had had a black bezel?
Now on SALE for £2,999 (reduced from £5,999) and I was offered it for £2,800 without asking.

IEX Welcomes High-Speed Traders, as Long as They BehaveSam Mamudi
IEX Group Inc.'s trading platform was built to combat predatory practices. That doesn't mean it's on a crusade to kill high-frequency trading firms.
Chief Executive Officer Brad Katsuyama, whose firm is the subject of Michael Lewis's new book "Flash Boys," welcomes all kinds of traders on his five-month-old platform that's trying to reshape the $22 trillion U.S. equity market. Virtu Financial Inc., one of the biggest high-speed trading firms, trades on IEX, for instance.
"It's not about being anti-HFT, but about being pro-fairness," Katsuyama said during an interview today. "It would be easy for us to go after Virtu or an HFT firm because of the way we're being shaded. But it's not fair because although they are only a small percentage of our overall volume, they are a good contributor of value to our market."
IEX aims to level the playing field for investors by curbing the pace of buying and selling -- eliminating opportunities for the fastest firms to trade in front of slower ones. To avoid conflicts of interest, IEX doesn't let brokers or traders such as Virtu own stakes. Only money managers such as Brandes Investment Partners, David Einhorn's Greenlight Capital Inc. and Bill Ackman's Pershing Square Capital Management LP are owners.
"There are HFT strategies that are beneficial to the market and create true liquidity," said Joe Scafidi, the director of trading at money-management firm Brandes Investment Partners, which oversees $27 billion and owns an IEX stake. IEX is "not anti-HFT. It's pro-efficient market."
Rigged Market
Lewis told CBS Corp.'s "60 Minutes," during an interview broadcast yesterday, that the U.S. equity market is rigged because the fastest traders are able to determine which stocks investors plan to buy, purchase them first and then sell them back at a higher price.
He's adding his voice to an increasingly loud debate about high-frequency strategies. Earlier this month New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said he's scrutinizing practices that give some computerized firms a speed edge, while regulators in Washington have also said the issue should be examined.
High-frequency trading comprises a diverse set of software-driven strategies that have spread from U.S. equity markets to most developed countries as computer power grew and regulators tried to break the grip of centralized exchanges. They usually employ super-fast computers to post and cancel orders at rates measured in thousandths or even millionths of a second to capture price discrepancies on more than 50 public and private venues that make up the American equities market.
Here Forever
Firms using the tactics account for about half of share volume in the U.S., a statistic that shows their pervasiveness and hints at the obstacles faced by proposals to rein them in. Exchanges rely on HFTs for profits as well as liquidity, with electronic market makers all but eliminating the old system of human floor traders who oversaw the buying and selling of equities. While critics such as Lewis see a Wall Street plot, proponents say the new system is faster and cheaper.
"We act on the assumption that computerized trading never goes away," Katsuyama said. "It should be part of the market and it should be delivering the efficiencies that they deliver," he added. "But should it be 50 percent of the market or greater? Probably not. It is an intermediary after all."
Ronan Ryan, chief strategy officer at IEX, said he's met with about 15 high-frequency trading firms in recent months to explain his company's approach.
'Fairly Well'
"We went along and said that while some of the press might give off the perception we're anti-HFT, we're not, we're pro-technology," he said. "I'd say the meetings went fairly well. At the beginning they weren't that receptive, they were a little bit skeptical about our speed bump, that's all they knew it to be. But when they went through our architecture, a lot of them said, 'You've thought this through, I like the architecture.'"
Several of these firms asked for a backdoor into IEX -- a way to circumvent IEX's design to their own benefit.
"They weren't joking," said Ryan, who declined to name the firms or say what they asked for. "They literally felt it was a legitimate question because for years they've been granted that type of special treatment."

Dressing the Part
"Would you like to try one of these on today, Melina?"
Fair green 'gainst alabaster flesh, dark eyes
and gems played like cold truths and the warm lies
that guard them. Words dance, considered replies
bring dulcet tones instead of frosty sighs.
The offer was too good to be true and Melina had not spent as much time as she had in d'Argent's household to be caught by such obvious tactics. Her Ladyship had far too much business to attend to a silly serving girl playing dress-up. Even if it was with her own clothing.
"My lady is too kind." Melina lowered her head. "but I do not wish to inconvenience you."
D'Argent nodded once, accepting the answer. "Prudent." she said, almost more to herself than to Melina. "All decisions--even the slightest--must be made to appear effortless in the making, and once made, must be as the stone beneath your feet. Implacable."
Melina nodded and removed the green gown from the wardrobe. It was light on brocade but had a daring gather in the front which focused the eye to the drape of the fabric, and the promises within.
"Now. Why this one?" D'Argent asked, shimmering into the under-dress with a litheness that Melina envied.
"Green to match your eyes, My lady, but darker, more reserved." Melina said, fitting the gown and starting in on the complicated lacing up the back. But d'Argent said nothing else, and Melina felt compelled to fill the silence. "You are meeting with the Pastor today. So, only modest brocade to appear conservative, but not enough to appear as if you are trying to sway his opinion."
D'Argent nodded again, a subtle smile playing on her lips. She stuck her arms out for the armings. Melina worked silently, her cheeks flushing at unvoiced d'Argent's approval. Until d'Argent asked, "Have you worked on your letters today?"
"No, My lady." Melina gasped. In the luxury of the previous night, she had forgotten her lessons.
D'Argent levelled a cool gaze as Melina finished the armings and reached for the hairbrush "Life is a balance between obligation and desire. One depends on the other. Desire is the foamy-mouthed dog and Obligation is its' leash. You will have your lessons done before the Pastor leaves." And with a swish of fabric, she went for the door.

Australia is offering Indonesia extra money and help to reduce the number of transiting asylum seekers as the Abbott government maintains silence on the widespread belief that it is towing boats back to the Indonesian maritime border.
At the same time the immigration minister, Scott Morrison, has revealed there is still no agreement about what rights, conditions or assistance will be available to asylum seekers sent by Australia to Manus Island and Nauru who are found to be genuine refugees, even though processing has now resumed at both detention centres.
Indonesian ministers have rejected the policy of towing back or turning back boats, but Morrison sought to smooth the reaction with repeated assurances that Indonesian territorial sovereignty would never be violated and with the offer of increasing Australia's current $40m contribution to the International Migration Organisation to handle asylum seekers in Indonesia and an open offer of further help, including helping Indonesia send asylum seekers back to their country of origin.
"Australia stands ready to further assist Indonesia to manage this resident population as required or requested … will continue to provide the same level of resettlement [under the humanitarian program] as under the former government, and we are open to assist with voluntary and involuntary returns to assist Indonesia," he said, pointing to a sharp fall in recent months in the number of asylum seekers arriving in Indonesia.
Morrison said the government was "salvaging resettlement arrangements" for asylum seekers sent to Manus Island, having been left a "blank sheet of paper" by the former government, which began the policy of immediately sending asylum seekers arriving by boat with no possibility of resettlement in Australia shortly before the federal election. The government is building accommodation on both islands to house people found to be refugees.
But asked whether those refugees would have work rights or freedom of movement or family reunion rights, Morrison said "they are matters for the PNG government, there has been no conclusion on those points". He said discussions were continuing between Australia and PNG.
Morrison and Operation Sovereign Borders commander Lieutenant General Angus Campbell continued to insist that their refusal to answer questions about "on water matters" was essential to meet the overriding goal of stopping asylum seeker boats, and said from now on such briefings on the policy would be held when needed, rather than every week because the "establishment phase" had finished.
They also refused to answer questions about reported attempts at self harm and hunger strikes at the Christmas Island detention centre on the grounds that it could encourage more such protests.
Campbell did confirm reports that the government had bought several large lifeboats – apparently to help transfer asylum seekers back to Indonesia – but would not say what they would be used for.
"I am not going to provide information about the potential or actual employment of these lifeboats now or in the future," Campbell said, adding "clearly a lifeboat is involved in the on water activities".
The Indonesian foreign minister, Marty Natalegawa, said sending asylum seekers back in lifeboats was the start of a slippery slope.
"Developments of the type that has been reported in the media, namely the facilitation by way of boats, this is the kind of slippery slope that we have identified in the past," Natalegawa told the ABC.
"It is one thing to turn back the actual boats on which they have been travelling, but another thing to transfer them to another boat."
Morrison has repeatedly pledged that none of the more than 30,000 asylum seekers already in Australia would gain a permanent protection visa, but the Senate has rejected the Coalition's alternative temporary protection visas and there are three high court challenges under way to the regulations the government is using to prevent permanent visa claims.
Morrison said he would not "speculate" on the outcome of high court cases, but said he "stood by" the commitment that the asylum seekers would not be allowed to stay permanently.
Campbell said allegations of mistreatment by asylum seekers on a boat allegedly towed back to the Indonesian maritime border by the Australian navy had been investigated and he was "very satisfied with the professional conduct of our people".
He said this did not amount to a confirmation that the towbacks had actually occurred and that the investigation had not included any contact with the asylum seekers, now back in Indonesia, who had made the allegations.
"I just ask that you might reflect on the question of what might be the motivations behind those sort of claims … some of those claims were quite outrageous," Campbell said.
Morrison said he had "absolute faith in the integrity of our military personnel" and that the claims had been made by asylum seekers at the urging of people smugglers in order to "undermine a policy that is destroying their business".
He also denied the towback policy broke the government's promise before the election that it would not tow boats back. He said it had meant the government would not tow boats back to Indonesian ports, not that they wouldn't be towed at all.
On October 1, at a media conference in Indonesia, Abbott said "can I just scotch this idea that the Coalition's policy is or ever has been towbacks. Our policy ... is that we reserve the right to turn boats around where it is safe to do so. There is a world of difference between turning boats around in Australian waters and the Australian navy towing them back to Indonesia."
But Morrison explained on Wednesday that "previously before the election … the towback as a policy was explained and … was characterised as boats being towed back into Indonesian waters, or into Indonesian ports … we've said very plainly it has never been our policy to violate Indonesia's territorial sovereignty. I think there has been confusion on the semantics of this."
Both Morrison and Campbell hailed the fact that no boats had arrived for more than three weeks.
"The right policies are in the right hands and they're beginning to get the right results," Morrison said, adding that boat arrivals had fallen 80% since Operation Sovereign Borders began.
Campbell said it would only be able to offer a confident assessment of the success of the operation in March, when the monsoon season was over.
At that point, he said, he might also talk about "past activities" but he would not do that now "lest it offer people smugglers with trend analysis that can be used against us".

Our customer reviews for ibis budget Nice Californie Lenval
Reviews collected from customers who booked on AccorHotels.com
I booked the hotel after going through the reviews. Nice place to stay with promenade just in front of you. Well connected with public transport from airport and you can take bus no. 200 from the Lenval bus stop which is at stone throw distance from the hotel to go for a day trip to Cannes. Friendly and good staff at counter. I asked for upper floor room facing sea and was provided. The near by super market provides all you need. The check in and check out was very smooth. The room size and furnishing was just OK but you can't expect any thing more in the price you have paid.
Nous vous remercions d'avoir pris le temps de nous faire part de vos avis sur notre hôtel. Nous sommes ravis que notre hôtel vous ait apporté entière satisfaction en tout point de vue : situation, services, bonne desserte de transports en commun...
My wife and I recently stayed 4 nights at Ibis Budget Hotel (at California Lenval), Nice. The best part we loved about the hotel is its location! The hotel is in close proximity to the beach and it was extremely convenient to just walk across to the beach for a dip or a stroll on the famous Promenade des Anglais. Additionally it has excellent bus connectivity from Lenval Promenade. The room lived upto the expectations that we had of the Ibis Budget hotel. But we would have loved to have a tea maker and iron in the room to have made our stay more comfortable. The breakfast was good value for money and the staff were polite and helpful. They helped arrange for two day tours from the hotel itself! Overall we were very satisfied with our stay at the hotel. Thanks for making our trip so enjoyable. Overall we
Hotel is Budget but perfect if you just want to sleep here. Room is modern (apart from the toilet) and clean. Bathroom was a bit outdated and always water leaked through the separator from the shower onto the floor. But for French standards I guess that is top end. Bed was superbly soft and comfortable nice new Ibis Budget Standard Location is great with a nice 15min walk to the main square and all attractions Nearby is some superb Pizza and Snack Places if you need to feed yourself. Breakfast in Hotel is offered either full for 6 EUR or you could just have a croissant and a coffee for 2.50 EUR which we liked!
Not the very nice facility but justified by the price charged. Location is excellent. Just close to beach and public transport. Staff was ok (not really helpful). Restaurant was super crowded during breakfast time. One of the lift remain out of service for 3 days in row and that led to inconvience to all guests.
I had a pleasant and enjoyable stay at the hotel. It is situated very close to the beautiful beach of Nice. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I will definitely stay there again. Good value for money.
I had a lovely stay at this Ibis. The staff was nice and helpful. The hotel was right near the beach, which made it easy to take a morning swim. The room was clean and comfortable. It was about a 40 minute walk to the old town, but the Promenade des Anglaise was very lively, which made the walk enjoyable both in the morning and the evening.
We enjoyed monumental Angels' Bay on mid-August while staying at Ibis Budget Nice Californie Lenval. The hotel offered us sea view from the 8th floor, pleasantly cooled room and comfortable sleeping. Beach waves are only two steps from the hotel door and Promenade des Anglais is a great walk day and night towards choises of great eating, fun and shopping - if not willing to take a bus...
Location is a bit far from the center, and do not recommend walking after 23h. Apart from that everything was ok, wifi connection was good even though we were on the 8th floor. Note that you only has a soap, so you should bring your tooth paste, shampoo and etc with you. No hairdryer, but you can get one from reception as I did. Bed was really comfortable and we slept very good. Really good value for the money will stay again there if visit Nice again.
Very good rate and well located Hotel - beware of overnight parking as it is very expensive - unless you can park by promenade des anglais. The rooms are standard Ibis - the only problem as always I believe the cleaning lady never washes the floor - they just remove DUST - I have seen that in few Ibis hotels as the cleaning (I am very picky) is to be desired. But it is definitely good price performance.

Not So Super
Elliot Micheal
I wasn't sure what to do. For once, it struck me with an odd certainity of what I'd just done. I'd kidnapped a girl cause of the first instinct that had struck me. And where had that led me to? What was I to do now?
With a sigh I went to the kitchen and opened the fridge, hoping there was a beer but things don't just pop out of no existence do they? There was a supermarket not far from here. We were going to need food too...so I was going to have to go there soon anyways.
I heard a cough behind me and I turned around with a blank expression on my face. The girl was standing behind me with an eyebrow raised and her hands on her hips.
"Are you going to take me back or not?" Her voice was soft but there was an edge to it. I decided to ignore her and headed back out the cabin.
"Hey! Answer me!" She followed me out as I got into the car, after locking the cabin once she was out. I beckoned to her to get in but she stood her ground. Oh well, that wasn't going to change anything. Getting back out, I lifted her into my arms as she thrashed and screamed as loud as she could. No one was going to hear anyways.
"Leave me alone! Let me go now!" She slapped at my back hard and it stung the lightest bit but not enough to make a visible injury.
"We're going to the super market. That's all," I whispered.
She stopped thrashing as I placed her in the car. I heard her grumble something under her breath, something I couldn't hear.
"Why'd you take me in the first place? What importance am I to you?"
I decided to maintain my silence with her as we drove out.
I pulled up into the parking lot of the supermarket, getting out as she did behind me. I put my hand around her waist as we headed for the entrance and whispered, "Be silent and go with the act." She remained silent by my side as I opened the door and stepped into the cool, air-conditioned supermarket.
I had a mental list of what to buy and went around, selecting the things needed and putting them into the cart. She followed me silently, obeying what I'd said previously. When I went over to the poultry section to get a few chicken legs and minced meat, my attention swerved a bit and only after placing the items in the cart did I notice that she was gone.
I paniced and looked around frantically. She couldn't have escaped. Or was she planning this? To make a quiet runaway. I jogged looking around the different aisles and when I found her nowhere, I'd almost decided on the fact that she'd left. But when I made my way back, I saw her in one of the aisles which had a sign saying "Toiletries'" hung above it.
"Don't ever leave me like that again," I hissed, taking hold of her hand firmly but she wouldn't move.
"I was thinking I would need some of these if I was staying with you any longer," she muttered. When I looked down at her hands, I noticed the Always Pads package. I felt myself blush a little but I turned, walking back to where I left the cart.
Knowing she was by my side, I said, "I'm sorry about that...just...stay by my side."
She didn't say anything in reply to that but I knew she would listen this time when she took hold of my hand. Hers felt so small inside mine...almost like a child's, but I didn't drop it either. I liked having her warm hand interlaced with mine.

Japanese greetings
Do you know how to say hello in Japanese? How about some other useful Japanese greetings? After this free audio lesson for beginners you'll know more than just a simple konnichiwa!
Listen to the native speakers greeting each other, and then go ahead and practice saying each Japanese phrase aloud. Once you're feeling confident with Japanese greetings you'll learn some different ways to say goodbye in Japanese as well.
How to pronounce Japanese greetings
Greetings like "good morning" or "good afternoon" are incredibly important in Japanese. As the Japanese culture is more formal, going through the ritual of greeting another person is an important way of showing respect. Japanese tend to bow while saying "Ohayō gozaimasu", "Konnichiwa" or "Konbanwa" depending on the time of the day. Bows can be divided into informal-15 degree angle, formal-30 degree angle, and very formal, deeper angle bows. You are expected to greet every person individually, even if they're in a group. That means that if you're walking along the road and pass a group of five people, you'll have to say, "Konnichiwa," and bow five times!
Informal Japanese GreetingsNowadays it is quite common to use short greetings, like "yā" and "yō", however, it is more common to say nothing between close friends. They just start talking without greetings. Listen to the link below to hear some informal Japanese greetings…
Regional Japanese GreetingsThere are some greetings that you will only hear in certain regions.
In the Kansai region of Japan, they have a distinct dialect called the "Kansai-ben" which is characterized as being more melodic and harsher. Within Kansai, there are greeting words that are restricted to Osaka, such as "Mokarimakka", roughly translated "how's business", to which the answer is "Bochi bochi denna".
Saying GoodbyeYou have probably heard "Sayōnara" before, which is the most common form of saying "Good-bye". You may have also heard "Shitsurei shimasu", another formal farewell phrase which translates literally to "I'm being rude by leaving your presence".
