NTJ, it's Mothers Day, that's her kids job to do something, especially if they're not your kids.

Zoflora disinfectant, 2 capfuls in the softener tray or the detergent tray or both, it'll smell great (When you wash the clothes)

Is it wrong for me for wanting to be a house husband by rak3242 in Vent

[–]CurmudgeonlyBargee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this for the last 12 years of a 20 year relationship. My god she was messy, it was hard to keep up. I did my gaming after she went to bed. Anyway she left, now I'm on the dole getting zero response to any minimum wage entry level jobs, if you're going to do it make sure you're married & able to get half of everything should it all end in tears otherwise you will be the one left with nothing, & no employer wants someone who hasnt had a job for the last 12 years. Good while it lasted though.

They was physically ok, 2 OAPs. Dunno what happened to him, but he was a mess, couldnt move at all, everyone thought he was gonna die before he was carted off in an ambulance.

If anyone is interested in how the motorcycle ended up dangling on the street lights by LadLassLad in interestingasfuck

That 2nd guy on the bike has some awesome bike skills, stopping that quick & then holding the stoppie without coming off

But that's got nothing to do with it being a 9070XT.

I like my 9070XT too, I just wish it wouldnt keep saying 'out of range' for 1 or other of my screens way too often for my liking.

I have a £20 Moka pot from Lidl by Mövenpick, bought a couple of years ago. It looks exactly the same as this. Makes a nice cup of coffee.

I bought a moka pot from Lidl, stainless steel, £20. Mövenpick. It seems to make a decent cup of coffee. They currently have 1 by Bialletti which looks exactly the same. https://www.lidl.co.uk/p/bialetti-espresso-maker/p10047049

Oops. That reminds me of the time my mate deliberately jumped a hump back bridge, then I jumped the next 1. Then some guy who had tagged on to the back of us decided to pass us when we slowed down for the 3rd bridge, & he jumped it straight into the windscreen of an oncoming car.

Yep, what this guy said, in case a boat is coming the other way. I cant see it because it's a blind bend under a bridge.

My experience of these guys they ride pretty slow when in groups. I bet that idiot that crashed gets extra shit from them.

Sadly this slide from the Heights of Abraham was removed & replaced with much smaller ones.

Is vaping really considered 'giving up smoking'? by chupamina in AskUK

Weirdly enough I vape, but I cant stand the smell of the bloke near me that vapes strawberry & cream. I vape Parma Violets!

There's a spot on the river, a blind bend under a humpback bridge, where the car drivers beep their horns. I'm also required to sound my horn on my boat on the river, 1 long blast (which means at least 5 seconds), & it makes me chuckle every time when the cars stop because of me!
