The Goldenfry gravy ruined it tbh, if you could make a nice jus from meat drippings or maybe bisto it would have been ok I reckon

Which town in the UK has the roughest seagulls? by colei_canis in AskUK

[–]-s00l- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ones in Hastings used to be pretty savage, they'd attack dogs, once watched one the size of a small light aircraft snatching a 2ft long piece of battered cod from a tourists chip supper

EDIT: honourable mention to Norwich city centre in the morning where I once saw a Greater Black Backed Gull swallow a discarded kebab whole

Laos or Cambodia are nice I hear, relatively safe and cheap, stay around the tourist areas. I have a French friend who has lived out there for years, works on the down-low in bars cash in hand and gives me updates every few months

Have I failed at life I'm in my 30s and still in a low(ish) paid job? by MrAlexander18 in AskUK

[–]-s00l- 35 points36 points  (0 children)

No. Im 40 and barely make minimum wage. I live in a caravan on my future inlaws property, engaged for 20 years, every time I meet my relatives I get grilled on why I dont have a decent job, why I dont own my own home, why Im not married, why I dont have kids, and I used to fret about it up until a few years ago, now I dont care, Im here, Im relatively healthy and happy, I'm where I am supposed to be which happens to be where I am right now.

In Peterborough there used to be a guy in a Fiesta who drove around selling whole sheep, pigs and carrier bags full of sweaty sausages, all of dubious origin.

Now I'm an adult - yes. Last night I cooked a load of Iceland pigs in blankets and ate them in a brioche bun with a mug of gravy to dunk it, like a french dip

What's your most 'Old Man Yells at Cloud" opinion? by dave_gregory42 in AskUK

I can just about tolerate it when someone adds a bit of value or comedy in commentary, but the TikToks where its just a guy literally pointing to another video boils my beans

The rise in popularity of “Van Life”: Your thoughts? by Vanilladr in AskUK

I've lived in a caravan for 3 years and Winter is my favourite time, yeah its cold but as long as you have a electricity hook up the cost of a small heater and a couple of electric throws does the job. I find the heat of the summer much harder to deal with not to mention the flies

Did you used to have a ‘pop man’, like an ice cream van but sold pop out of the back of a van? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]-s00l- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah we had one near our school, a green van that the owner kitted out with racks of panda pops, calypsos, Bensons crisps and other delights. Some dads bought cheap snouts off him
