Jack Black intense therapy lip balm is my go to. I have tried nearly every lip balm available since benefit stopped selling smoooch, I used burts bees for a long time but Jack black applies better, has a better consistency for longevity, and repairs my lips overnight.

I had to get the bus today. There was a bloke in front of me using the arm of his glasses to dig in his ear and remove a load of earwax, he then smeared this all over the seat in front of him. 🤢

I remember why I don’t get the bus now.

Why did the monkey get lost?

Great post, thanks.

Some interesting reading.

1. Rent it yourself for a couple of nights.

2. get key cut.

3. Let yourself in and trash it after every visitors departs.

Either I’m an ugly ginger **** or an uninteresting ginger ****.

There is the third option 😉

Someone is going to be very confused when they next stop.

I handed my notice in on Monday, I called my boss’s support manager who I respect enormously and have worked with for longer than my boss, as I wanted her to hear it from me rather than a passing comment from my boss.

I then emailed my boss and HR with a very honest letter and the details of my new position. I work in the third sector so it’s useful to have friends in other charities.

hard house

@dannybgoode There aren’t many of us left now. I remember doing Sundissential North sober on my birthday, I just had to look around at the drunken mess everywhere to know I was having a much better time.

Well done you, you are a very supportive husband. As a fellow teetotaller I understand how challenging it can be in certain situations. Do you still get the looks of horror and the gasps of “what do you mean you don’t drink”?

As I mentioned I was never going to go down in a ball of flames, I had fun writing a few that I’d like to send though.

I don’t want to burn my bridges as I can see me going back one day in a very different capacity, but nowhere near my current boss as he’s a proper knobber.

Dear boss.
I’m handing in my notice.
my last day will be X. Kind regards

That’s all you need.

I ended up writing a gushing side of A4 😂

OP, I think a couple of bottles of red would aid the drafting, with at least four fingers of scotch before making the decision to send or not.

I haven’t drunk for over 2 years, that could get interesting. 😈

I got enough pleasure from correcting the director that my notice period was 4 weeks rather than the 3 months she imagined.

Oof! That’s a bit of a blunder on her behalf.

I have had fun drafting a few that I would like to send, but I was never going to go out in a blaze of glory.

4 more weeks and I’m out of there, wohooooo!

Loving the look of the 155.

I’m also experiencing the above on my 11pro using safari. STW is the only site that it happens on and only since the forum update.

but heat puts me off them.

Im a very hot sleeper and had the same concern. I went for a Panda topper and I honestly haven’t noticed any heat issues with it.

That’s great to hear as I’ve a table booked (and bloody glad that ordeal is over). Thanks to everyone for all your input.

Dance, even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room

Advice I live by. I love to dance and find it very therapeutic.

Paolozzi is really good, I enjoyed it

Excellent, thank you.

Im veggie, the good lady struggles with most things plant based. I’m starting to think @bruneep has a point.

I’m veggie but thank you.

Well this is awkward, she is the new girlfriend. 🤦🏼‍♂️

I’ve looked at all the online menus and none of them stand out as girlfriend friendly. Has anyone eaten at Paolozzi on Forrest Road?

Theres at least 3 things that she would eat, which is 2 more than anywhere else I’ve seen so far.

Thank you, I’ll do a bit of research on the suggestions.

Years back it used to be dump valves, ‘psssht’ every gear change, before that it was cherry bombs, currently it’s crackle maps.

I’ve got a turbo 4×4 Panda, I’m going to get a dump valve and a crackle map. Gosh how the ladies will swoon.

Horsetail… horsetail everywhere! Took a few seasons to tame it.

I fell out with my father in law quite spectacularly over planting potatoes incorrectly, they grew and I had a very bountiful harvest but he was adamant I had done it wrong. I ended up giving him the allotment because I couldn’t be arsed with his bullshit over every tiny detail.

Im now at a very different stage of my allotment career and awaiting a plot to come up at Moncreiff island (3 year waiting list and I’m about 1.5 in) Hopefully this one will be more of a family affair with my new partner and her kids.

I’ve treated some pretty nasty first aid incidents (first responder for crashes on the A9 for example), my worst until recently was a lady having a stroke in front of her daughter and grandkids in the middle of a busy restaurant.

However, that pales into insignificance to watching my girlfriends daughter choking on her food. Scary for everyone and thankfully I just went into autopilot and cleared the blockage.

Basic first aid is a very easy course and it can be the difference between life and death. If you can do one then please do.

Shit just got real

David Mellor make some beautiful kitchen knives, not terribly cheap but you get what you pay for.

I only ask as it’s my wife’s name!

Run… run like the wind and never look back.

A skein of geese is what you need.

Does anyone actually bother to do this?

Nope, for no reason whatsoever I have all of my old ones, I like the journey I’ve been through with them and the pictures and different addresses.

Congratulations, what a beautiful and thoughtful ring as well.

Went to work for the first time in over 4 weeks, I’ve been so bloody ill I could hardly leave the house. Utterly exhausted now but it felt so good to be with the team again.

My Barbour wax jacket and the casing on a motorbike battery charger.

We have one from here https://www.hercules-gazebo.co.uk/product-category/hercules-gazebos/ I think it’s something like 3m tall but is adjustable and available smaller if needs be.

We have it bolted to the patio and is left up all summer with no issues so far.

It was bought on the strength that the in laws have had one for years which comes out every summer and again no issues.
I do however, wish we had got the green, as the canvas colour needs a bit of scrubbing between seasons.

West Ham are having a cracking start to the Euros 😂

It’s PC gone mad, I tell you.

As my comment was also deleted as I quoted your offensive text, I’ll say it again. You are part of the problem.

Wohoo, go Shelby. Start planning those family adventures.

Have a watch of one of Typical Gamers YouTube feeds (it’s PG friendly) and see for yourself. I can’t see an issue with a 9 year old playing it, it’s very inoffensive but is also very addictive and expensive if they need the latest skins, pick axe and emotes.

her final weeks were filled with laughter and love.

I hope when it’s a bit less raw you can take great comfort in this. Very sad news and my thoughts are with you.
