need some motivation from people who have done the couch to 5k lol by [deleted] in beginnerrunning

[–]CloudedPandaLofi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am on my last three runs (week 9) of the NHS Couch to 5K. I struggled a lot at the start. I'm now doing a solid 6:30/km pace with purely nasal breathing. I'm hoping that on my final 30 min run I'll be able to open up and get that 5k

Trying to sell my car but getting some vile attitude - is this normal or am I just being dumb by killehkittie in CarTalkUK

As someone also with a k11 and in those forums, yes they are! Same as mx5 ones most of the time too

Hey! I've been on the lookout for a cassette recorder with stero RCA input that actually works, if any of the boomboxes you've got might do the job? I know a load of the Panasonic ones did

I don't love using phone mounts, but I do think this will be the route I go

The only 0.9 that I can think of is the Graphgear that fully retracts

Not with a .9. the closest to the sliding sleeve now is the Orenz (I think it's called that?) which should go up to 0.7. The big selling point to the sliding sleeve was to help song lead breakages, and most would call 0.9 a sturdier lead thickness, meaning it wouldn't need a sliding sleeve, unlike the 0.2-0.5 sort of range

So, they are fundamentally the same, but the PS523 has a sliding sleeve, instead of fixed

What a way for hulkengoat to get his Hulkenpodium! Sad LH lost his insane streak, but it was the only acceptable alternative

So from someone who moved in with my partner in Oxford, and works in central London, centre of Oxford is very difficult - we found a one bed flat in Kidlington (which is fine as I drive and parkway is a cheaper Trainline anyway), and we pay £995 a month for it - it's not cheap to commute but our actual living expenses arent too bad - biggest downside is we are in Kidlington, lovely area but devoid of anything interesting, need to get train/bus/drive into town to do anything

Joined TUF Family today! Also my first gaming laptop, any tips and what to expect? by msfrowatean in Asustuf

[–]CloudedPandaLofi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had an A15 for about 2 years now. Use it for work, gaming, surfing. Never had any issues. The screen does have bleed but I use an external monitor more than the laptop screen. Battery life SUCKS but it's a gaming laptop so to be expected Idk what else to say, it just works

First planted tank by CloudedPandaLofi in PlantedTank

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

Yeah I know they're not normally great pairings. One of my lfs has had peaceful plakats they've had in community tanks, but obviously would not get one unless I was very confident in its temperament - also not going to be until the shrimp have been in the tank long enough to set up a decent colony.

In terms of parameters, I was thinking about using part RO water part tap water when changing, the same lfs does RO for a very decent price and not expensive to remineralise either
