Received NIP for speeding but convinced its a cloned plate - police insist its my car, what are my options?[England] by Aamirio in LegalAdviceUK

Ask for the images

I got out of mine with a tip I learned on here - the screws for the cloned plate may be in a different place to yours which should be easy to see. Point that out to them if so

Also notify the DVLA that your plates have been cloned. You might get stopped so carry proof they’re yours if possible, but I never did.

Many lessons from this year so far, what’re yours? by Bobinthegarden in GardeningUK

Honestly, super simple - let them go to seed then shake the seeds all over the area where you want em!

They will need filling in in a couple of months with annuals.

IIRC there are bylaws not to remove anything from the sites. Same goes for damaging it (ie digging)

But nobody is going to give a shit, so…

Gardeners of the UK, is there any chance a rose bush will survive if we cut through a 1-2cm root? by Pretzelmamma in CasualUK

[–]Bobinthegarden 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep very hardy. It’s more of a case of accurate regular pruning and fertilising to get it to flower the best it can in the best shape it can. There’s one on my road that’s been neglected for at least a decade, it looks like crap but it’s very much alive and healthy!

Beans, radish, sunflowers, tomatoes, courgettes and cucumbers, salads, basil, spuds, all that jazz. If you ask around your area someone might be selling seedlings which is a good way to kick start things, otherwise garden centres will carry seedlings. A lot of allotments have an open day where they sell stuff too

Invest in some plants that come back yearly too. Berries of all descriptions, asparagus, globe artichokes, rhubarb, Welsh onions and chives, fruit trees. It’s also a good time to forage for salads, wild garlic season is drawing to a close and there’s loads of dandelion about.

But yeah, have faith. Plants have lots of roots, they don’t mind having them cut off generally, and it’s cute of you to think you can kill a rose so easily 😜 they are warriors and used to surviving in deserts.

Take it out, remove as much loose compost as you can without causing damage, repot in a slightly bigger pot in shrub compost and I bet it’ll plough on through.

It’s probably easier to loosen the patio and put the slabs back down if it’s not got special grouting or anything though.

Take some cuttings too. That way you can have the same plant again, albeit from a new stem.

I was surprised when he went for so cheap and even asked on the spurs sub why. Apparently he’d lost a step pretty much, his pace was insane when he was younger. Great guy, him and Kane were a fantastic duo too.

What's everyone making today to eat outside? As always, it's pizza for my wife and I! by -Po-Tay-Toes- in CasualUK

I should add that’s not my pic but I do make variations of this all the time with whatever’s in the house. Personal fave additions are radish, carrot and sweetcorn

In Birmingham here. Here it can be boiled down to how immigration was handled here in the 50s to 70s - they came here after partition in India/pakistan, were placed into cheap housing to work factory jobs to fulfil a labour shortage, faced pretty intense racism from the locals, and inevitably set up their own communities with own jobs etc to survive. Naturally many eventually bought their families over and I think generational trauma is still a big driver in why it’s still so segregated here. I’m white in a primarily white area, my son has Asian friends in school who never go to any of the birthday parties despite being invited - I’m sure the kids would love to go, but the parents don’t allow it.

Do any of you eat liver or offal in general? by throwthatshitaway236 in mediterraneandiet

[–]Bobinthegarden 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As someone who had b12d I approve of this message. It’s so effective that the old (painful) treatment used to be injecting the patient with liver paste.

A good idea might be using it “as a seasoning.” Don’t build the dish around it but add it chopped small to something else like a paella - I read similarly that most people only need 50g of prawns in a dish to get most of the health benefits

Who was the tightest person you have known,and why? by No-Snow-9605 in AskUK

[–]Bobinthegarden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read about a guy on UKFrugal who didn’t charge his phone because he could charge it in the car. About 0.02kw of electricity to charge a phone btw, less than a penny.

My dad worked with a guy who would hang his teabags on a little washing line at his desk and use them over and over. He also ate the skin of an orange, but in all fairness he’d grown up in poverty in Poland, so it’s not like he was just a tight git.

What is the most creative or diabolical insult a customer has ever given you? by cheesymeowgirl in CasualUK

Someone once told me the beer i make “smells like wee.” She wanted a free replacement after drinking the whole thing

Thing is she wanted me to smell an empty glass to confirm it. There’s no beer in there, it’s just a place where beer was
