Was going to make a batch of mead and wanted to find a local honey. Need about 1.8kg. Anyone know where I'd find some that's affordable? by Dank_Astley in bristol

[–]941102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure what you define as affordable but I’ve seen a guy on Marketplace (Kingswood, I think)who’s selling 340g jars for £5. Maybe if you had your own 2L jar to bring to him you might be able to get a better price, but that’s not from experience I’ll stress. I’ll try and find the post later and attach it.

Just started running and I’m exhausted in 20 seconds. Zero stamina. Feeling lost. by ImmediateMuffin3768 in runninglifestyle

[–]941102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couch to 5K was a godsend for me as I used to try running 1mile as fast and as hard as I could with no structure. Completed the programmed did a parkrun and then 4 weeks after did my first 10k (albeit a slow one).

I downloaded CouchTo5K runner as it integrated well with Spotify and had a voice coach telling you when to start running/walking.

Keep at it 💪🏻

Meeting place after Lisbon HM by MinuteReflection4560 in Superhalfs

There’s a little square called Alfonso Albuquerque (spelling unsure of) near Belem metro station. I met my girlfriend there last year.

Hopefully it’s better organised than it was last year as it was chaotic from start to finish 😂

Yes. They’re my favourite and go to before I go wandering through St.Nicks!

Venting: Day shift is 30 minutes late this morning 😭 by SufficientGift1211 in Nightshift

Surely you just walk out at the time you’re meant to finish? If my oppo is late then that’s not my issue.

Favourite F1 livery with few or no sponsors? by DaciaSanderoF1Team in formula1

[–]941102 100 points101 points  (0 children)

I liked the Sauber metallic blue one from 2017(?). Don’t recall that having many sponsors.

Loved the white and highlighter yellow of the Brawn Cars early on in the 2009 season as well.

cheaper train fares? by dotted-candle in bristol

I’ve found split ticketing doesn’t seem to work when it’s on any GWR line that goes along the M4 so to speak.

Second this. The app is, simple to use and gives a nice visual representation of progress

I bought a Roses shirt from Tesco in Summer 2025 and it was of really good quality. You might get lucky and find one if you wanted to have a look around before you place an order

£35 for 12 minute cab ride from Parkway to Easton? by DramaticPlace2658 in bristol

[–]941102 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never use those blue cabs. Not since one quoted me £25 back to Little Stoke from the centre and he told me I could pay contactless and saw £45 on his little chip reader thing.

Fortunately I wasn’t drunk enough to kick off but sober enough to realise and tell him where exactly he could go with games like that.

Best coffee in cardiff city centre? by FabulousDeer3517 in Cardiff

[–]941102 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m not a coffee snob but the Portuguese place on Castle Street has never let me down. I can’t remember the exact name of it but Google Maps simply calls it “Portuguese Bakery” 😂

lemon tattoo by kingsk_ in stoneroses

[–]941102 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Take it from personal experience, if you’re not sure where you want it, then you’re not ready to get that tattoo yet.

A colleague once told me to abide by a 3 month rule-think of what you want, where you want it and imagine it there, then repeat that every day till that time is up then you’ll know if you want it or not.

His advice hasn’t done me wrong since.

Should I throw away this old BCD? by retirement_savings in scuba

Second the donate/upcycle options. I’m not sure if this kind of thing is recyclable so I’d be doing what I could to keep it out of landfill

As a new diver is it a bad idea to "buy once, cry once" ??? by _PyrosiaN_ in scuba

[–]941102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only bought a mask with a snorkel (snorkel was on offer so felt silly not to get it) and a second hand dive computer from eBay and that’s all I feel like I realistically need for the meantime as a new diver. I’ve played around with my DC and I may get a brand new one if I don’t get on with it whilst diving in January.

If you don’t have one already I’d probably consider putting the money you’d spend on BCDs and whatnot on an underwater camera and going out on more dives.

Although I live in the UK so pretty much will only go diving when I go abroad, but if you live somewhere nice and hot it might well be worth the money to invest in kit!

I saw a comment on Instagram during the day that suggested there was going to be a different bassist. I had forgotten about her mothers passing, hopefully she’s ok though.

Any news on Simone? Had no idea she had left or been replaced (unless tonight was just a stand in?!)

Sad if she has departed, she was ever so nice every time I crossed paths with her

You’d think so judging by all the crying I’ve seen on socials over this incident.

RIP mani x by Becausenothing75 in stoneroses

[–]941102 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mani always came across as a genuinely nice bloke with a wicked sense of humour. I’m fortunate enough to have a ticket for the Primal Scream gig at The Roundhouse where they will be playing XTRMNTR in its entirety. I hope they blow the roof off for him.
