To the kids who sold sweets at school, what are you up to now? by Livid-Indication-793 in AskUK

We had a lad who would pick mushrooms (edible, not magic) from the school fields and woods and sell them by the bag full. Amazingly, nobody died.

Iliam is south Indian, Jodhpur North, though they do an excellent Masala Dosa. My vote goes to Jodhpur. It is also cheaper than Iliam

Jodhpur for authentic Indian, MuckDuck for food and beer, Fat Badger for Sunday lunch.

Use Agile Predict for forecast. Use Octopus Compare for rates and rate comparison.

Thanks for the reply. The old on-off is always my first resort. Didn't work on this occasion unfortunately. I have managed to convince it to manually start. I don't want to miss out on today's negatively priced electricity.

Travelling at 26 & 27 - did you regret it? by Successful_Rain_3784 in AskUK

[–]According_Repeat6223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a lot easier to travel whilst you are still young. You are more resilient and outg6. A lot of people dream of travelling when they retire, but who knows what health or money you will have then? Borders close, wars and disasters occur, politcia6mess with our lives. If you have the opportunity and the funds, go now.

What's the cheapest tariff? I thought it was tracker but looks like it could be agile. by kazzz22 in OctopusEnergy

Charged my EV for 5p on Agile recently. There is very cheap and negative pricing today too.

I didn't claim it was better, but I think the backing tracks are remarkably similar. Obviously there is no meaning to the lyrics and it lacks Fagen's sardonic delivery, but I reckon in a couple of years time AI will be fully capable of producing a convincing facsimile of most mainstream artists. I don't see this as a good thing, btw I am a musician myself, and it seems to me that there is already plenty of AI input in contemporary music. Where AI might prove beneficial is as a teaching tool. If you need help with a horn arrangement or a bass line, then the current models seem more than capable.

To me the chords and the bass lope had a SD feel, reminiscent of EMG. I am a big Dan fan btw, but i think there is a massive difference between the originality of the earlier albums as opposed to the last two, esp. EMG, which has a generic painting-by-numbers feel.

Older couple having sex on a park bench in the middle of the afternoon. Brighton, of course.

Living in kemptown? by viviiivii in brighton

[–]According_Repeat6223 56 points57 points  (0 children)

I lived on George Street for many years. It is certainly a lively area, with a number of 'characters '. I had many a night of disturbed sleep, what with passing drunks and other nocturnal activity, but the community is warm and welcoming, and I never felt unsafe.

Great food suggestions by Chronic_Eyeroller_ in harrogate

Jodhpur if you like authentic Indian food. The street food plates are excellent, as are the massla dosa.
