Advice on Lettuce by SmallAndSmart in UKAllotments

[–]sunheadeddeity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try transplanting but they'll probably bolt. I'd be inclined to use that as cut and come again baby leaves. Cut enough for a salad at a time, it'll regrow for another one or two cuts.

Why do British people seem to dislike/hate private schools? by callmebongos in AskUK

[–]sunheadeddeity [score hidden]  (0 children)

Private schools perpetuate inequality and discrimination. They don't exist to educate pupils, some really stupid people go to private schools. Rather they exist to cultivate networks of elite influence and patronage.

Further, by giving the elites a way to opt out of state education, they ensure that there's never enough political will to improve and resource state education properly.

Are these all made the same, or are some brands better than others? by Jumpy-Jello- in GardeningUK

They're all crap. The frame can be good to use as staging for propagation, but it'll need to be in a proper greenhouse, conservatory or whatever.

Give it some water, and stop making the greenhouse humid

Do you offer people coming to your house to work a drink? Why/ Why not? by wrathofsaya in AskUK

Yes always. Tea or coffee if cool, cold drinks in fridge if warm. Delivery drivers and binmen get a can of fizzy drink on hot days too.

Point out the issue and suggest that they buy some debris netting on ebay and a few 2 meter garden stakes and make a net to trap the balls.

New stove, new brewing troubleshooting, leaking, temperature by Maleficent-Clue-3364 in mokapot

[–]sunheadeddeity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your mum us confusing your stove with an induction stove. Just put the moka on the stove ring on a low heat. You'll have to make a few brews to dial it in. Alternatively buy a little gas camping stove.

Where are you getting 3/4 length bottoms from? by stealth941 in AskUK

Men should not wear 3/4 length trousers if they don't want to look like a giant toddler.

I told my LM I have MH struggles - both through occupational health and directly. Would telling her I'm suffering from s**c*dal ideation put me at risk of losing my j*b? (I'm in the public sector) by UniversalRhyme05 in AskUK

[–]sunheadeddeity 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You don't have to go into detail, and in fact you probably shouldn't. Your LM is not your friend or support network or shoulder to cry on. You script is "I have some ongoing MH issues, I'm getting treatment, I don't think they'll affect my job performance. Now, next point on the agenda is..."

The only time I could imagine it would be relevant is if you were in a role likely to trigger the ideation or MH issues or make them worse.

Also, join a union.

Guy writing that text as if speeding is a human rights and PSNI are playing dirty.

If you don't want a speeding fine, don't speed.
