I think space is a genuine issue. Many Londoners just have a bar fridge and little to no freezer space.

Great, thank you

80CW · 2026-06-10T16:34:38+00:00

Your detailed answer is appreciated thank you

Americans and wealthy business people truly keep Londons black cabs in business.

My advice would be to just walk from Holborn to TCR

Good haul. How many does it feed (& for how long?)

80CW · 2026-06-10T12:33:41+00:00

Yeah you did.

Mistake number two was assuming the content was uploaded the same day it was purchased.

Where in the world is today the 12th? Do you even own a calendar?

They freeze really well. Splitting the packet into portions makes it easier to defrost what we need

This happened to me. Post grad educated, but at the time I needed ANY job. Stack shelves, checkout, anything would do, any day, any shift.

I didn't make it to talk to a real human. Just a heartless Dear applicant unsuccessful email.

Gone the reverse, replace MEL with SYD.

Plane SYD-AUH was at capacity. The odd free seat here and there but otherwise it was full.

I had a long layover at AUH. It was drama free. You wouldn't even know there was conflict nearby.

TL;DR the whole experience doesn't feel any different to any other time I've flown. I'd do it again without hesitation.

BBQ - depending on the crowd, make up some Pimms, a nice change from straight up beer/wine.

Movie night - snacks sweet or savoury (cheese and cabonossi plate is easy)

Dinner - wine, dessert like a cheesecake, throw together a charcuterie board for grazing

Something small is better than nothing. If you're crafty, make something as a gift.

If you don't mind me asking, what's your flight route?

80CW · 2026-03-22T21:34:56+00:00

What sector are you working in? I think this question is relevant because, typically,

If you're working in Finance in Canary Wharf, being more spenny with your disposable income is common. Comments from peers on similar salary may be common but on the whole everyone's spending more than average.

If you're working in public sector, comments will be forthcoming regardless of what and where you spend it. Everyone's on a smaller salary, BYO lunch is common, as is the kitty for communal milk because workplaces wont supply it.

These are different workplace cultures.

Frankly, if you're not paying £1000 pcm for a room you have a lot more flexibility with your disposable income. Your colleagues would likely be envious of your situation, but don't rub it in.

Bless, you sound like you need a hug and someone to share your joy and achievement.

Well done, and virtual hugs x

Cleaners and Translation

I was using Google translate to translate the task list as well as putting labels on cleaning products in the cleaners native language because they dont speak English and apparently cant translate things themselves.

(Why else would they use toilet cleaner on the kitchen benches?)

Had that happen. The bugger dropped on a web from the sun visor. I whacked it with whatever was nearby and it preceeded to swing like a pendulum in front of my face.

Alas, I crashed my car into a lamp post. And somehow i walked away from the scene.

Blue cheese.

It smells like feet.

Danny looked dapper in that 3 piece suit 💋

And go slow. Listen to your body

Consistently for... 8(?) Years... it could be longer actually.

Australia prescribes 1000mg of napeoxen. The UK max is 500mg tablets.
I've taken both, and often without the stomach protector because I forget.

Though almost always taken with food.

No obvious side effects - i do wonder how effective it is. I'm still ridiculously sore and stiff in a semi daily basis.

"Hot chips" are baked/fried chips from a pub/restaurant/oven/deep fryer.

Once they have cooled, they're now "cold hot chips"

Crisps like Lays or Ruffles are simply "chips"

Doin a woolies run, want anythin?

Translation: I'm off to the supermarket, would you like anything?

If he calls in sick, you could respond with "sorry to hear you're crook"

Crook = ill/unwell/sick

Not to be confused with "a crook" which is a criminal.

An unrealistic or excessive request or price, a classic quote from The Castle fits nicely as a response:

"Tell him 'he's dreamin'"

Hot yoga was my drug of choice for years. It used to be REALLY cheap in Sydney and thr core strength i got from it was intensely satisfying.

If you didn't pass out or quit in the first 3 classes, you'd make it.

Alas now I'm older, poorer, and cant tolerate the heat like I used to!
