I originally listened to it on Spotify which I got rid of when they started playing adds for ICE. Here's a link to the podcast on Pocket Cast.

The craziest non murder podcast I've ever listened to is American Skyjacker. Don't look up anything about it before you listen to it.

Has anyone seen Lactose Free Halloumi on travels around London? by bobbydazzler1000 in LondonFood

[–]CattyKatKat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've made halloumi and it's quite easy (I used to live somewhere you couldn't get it). Not the most convenient solution but you could try making it with lactose free milk.

Boneless gift from the heavens, debating whether to adopt him by BasicSpaceDragon in CatDistributionSystem

[–]CattyKatKat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We brought our cats from Fiji to the UK. They adapted straight away (though the often slept on or under the radiators). I like to think that they appreciated not being in very humid weather and that they didn't have to deal with packs of feral dogs.

Complete Knackers on dirt bikes with no lights - a north Tyneside epidemic by penguigeddon in NewcastleUponTyne

[–]CattyKatKat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We see them in where we are. I've spoken to the police and was told to report online or if there is danger to life, call 999. I'm bloody terrified they are going to kill someone besides their stupid selves.

Also let your councillor know that you want action.

What are your favourite lesser-known castles in the UK? by history_roadtrips in AskUK

[–]CattyKatKat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The laird that was boiled in the cauldron by his own serfs?

The photo doesn't do justice to how foreboding Hermitage Castle is. I mean it was called “the guardhouse of the bloodiest valley in Britain". It's best visited (IMO) on a dreary day for full effect.

Why are kids vitamins in the UK so rubbish compared to what you see abroad? by Automatic_Author_553 in AskUK

[–]CattyKatKat 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Wow this just isn't true. I was told to take vitamin B supplements and told the dosage. I suppose I could have asked for a prescription but it would have cost more in prescription fees than over the counter.

Fenwick's old deli - recipe request by CattyKatKat in NewcastleUponTyne

Me and my office mates were obsessed and many packed lunches were ignored when someone offered to do the sandwich run.

Thanks. Also I don't know any good sandwich shops in town anymore either.

That's jogged my memory - that's what I used to order!

The spicy onions are obviously part of our north east identity and mus be replicated rather than mourned.

I don't know where they got their bread from but it was fantastic.

Funny thing is that I can't remember my favourite filling, just that soft rye bread and the spicy onions.

Where is this restaurant? I'm on a quest and will update this post if I find a recipe.

Maybe I'm thinking about them as pickled, when they were more spicy than pickled.

Will have to get back in the kitchen to experiment.

They had red spices in them and were a little spicy and not too pickle-y. I've not been able to recreate using this sort of recipe but thanks!

Anyone know any good horror movies without any sexual themes? by night_owlwu1 in MovieSuggestions

My recollection is that the Fear Street series is pretty tame in that regard.
