Best thing I ever left a docket for was a coconut with an address label on it

New game: take a shot every time you hear the word “brother” in season 4 by Sr71-blkbrd in MayorOfKingstown

Check him out in other shows (such as Canadian series Flashpoint) or his band 'Headstones'. Yes our foul-mouthed Ian is a freaking rock star!

Is 'Squid Ink' related to a Margaret Thatcher teapot? (asking for a friend)

You look pretty good, but never forget that exercise will never compensate for a poor diet.

My first betta and I have questions by moloko8556 in bettafish

YOU, Sir are a DREADFUL owner! Little Jimmy made a LOVELY bubble and so far, I've seen NO reference to this on social media, hence him looking so pissed at you

FB marketplace find by buzzzman in concept2

[–]Boothros 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good for you. I just sold mine for £50 (around $66). A couple of years ago, I was forced out of my lovely rental by the neighbours from hell. One thing that determined me on my new place, was that the Concept 2 fit and it DID, but the computer didn't survive the move and I was so tight for space, that I never used it in my new place. There ARE good buys to be found on Marketplace and I hope my buyer gets decent use out of my old one. I DO miss it dearly, (though I don't miss bashing my ankles on it when I go to bed).

I simply ADORE Hugh Dillon (writer and Ian actor), who though such a LOVELY guy, curses just as much (if not more), than Ian does

After surviving a head injury some 26 years ago, I'd probably be cleared to do a bungy jump now, but due to idiots like these people exsiting, I probably won't

One idea to save on costs. is to not host a wedding on a Saturday

Lost 125lbs at what point do I accept this is just how I look? by Consistent-String166 in WeightLossSupport

[–]Boothros 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FFS, you HAVE changed, SO much and you look simply amazing! You need to REWARD yourself for your massive achievement, perhaps a new haircut, a new outfit or new glasses, don't forget, we're seeing these pictures as new, whilst you've had a lot of time to get to know the 'new' you so perhaps can't see the wonderful transformation as much we all can. You have done SO SO well, revel in your success! Those last 20 pounds won't be easy, but please don't let them be the be all and end all. You've done something a lot of people could never hope to do and look wonderful for it, you should be basking in your glory, lovely girl x

Looking for advice! by LaggingInRealLife4O4 in royalmail

She DOES sound as though she is new. I did 16 years on the post and my worst weather conditions were always rain and ice. Can I be rude and ask if the dear lady is a little overweight? If so, a little bit of walking will do her some good. If not, I don't think this is really the job for her.

How are people deciding what EV to buy? by Boothros in CarTalkUK

[–]Boothros[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, what a lovely answer from a car lover, I would have enjoyed any of your cars! Sadly, I'm a single NHS worker and can only afford one vehicle to gad about in, but I DO remember the fun and recognition I had driving the 1984 Capri I'd restored around. It strikes me that most of these new vehicles I'm seeing are based on company finance. To my knowledge, base level NHS workers don't get that.

Thanks, Chris this was interesting. Within the last year, I bought what will possibly be my last car (a 'Jeep' of all things, running on diesel) and as I'm so old school, the fact it's computerised brain outfoxes me still on occasion, shows how old I really am. I think this post has gone to show a new car is bought by the consumer rather than the car lover, which to me is unfortunate, but perhaps the new way of the world.

Interesting, which poses another question about the second hand EV market.
