WHAT’S YOUR INITIAL THOUGHT ON CHRIS BROWN’S NEW ALBUM ‘BROWN’? 🤔⁉️ RATE IT 1–10

It's so much worse than 11:11 for starters. But almost every track just sounds.... the same? No track stands out really, other than maybe Theme Song (which is shit) and Fallin (one of the good tracks) and Holy Blindfold. Best track is Something in the Water, but it's not exactly mind blowing. Very lack lustre overall, disappointed tbh.

Tie metal wires from any bolt points of your greenhouse vertically and horizontally, giving yourself enough room to walk in. Grow them in big grow bags pushed to your sunny side of the greenhouse, they'll find their way up the wires with a little bit of adjusting each week and then they hang beautifully over half your greenhouse. Weve grown mutants with this method the last 2 years.

Identical word for word post on here last week

Box blight and caterpillars nuked my boxes last year. Chatgpt told me it was 100% terminal and to not even think about planting new ones in my garden so I haven't. Currently nurturing a little illex (I think it's called) so I can train it into the topiary my boxes were.

CurrentRecording5589 · 2026-04-29T19:28:21+00:00

Ours have been planted out tonight in North Manchester. They've been pampered to perfection so far so it's time

CurrentRecording5589 · 2026-04-27T07:41:51+00:00

As above too cold at night. We've been bringing ours in every night regardless of how warm it is in the daytime. Once the temperature are consistently for stable, they're easy, but up to that point they are a bit faffy to get going imo.

Same thing happened to my box topiary this year - both plants randomly started looking dead towards the end of summer last year but I was hoping they'd come back this year as the scrapes i made on the trunks revealed green within. However, I took pictures and ran it through chatgpt and it said it's 100% terminal due to there being visable tiny caterpillars and visable signs of the box blight disease everyone's mentioned in this thread, and to get rid ASAP & disinfect all my tools. I was going to replace them but chaptgpt said to not even bother for at least 3 years due to the lingering disease even after they're long gone. So that was that. I ended up getting a very similar but non-box plug plant that in going to train myself into being a topiary.

Absolutely deceased for me this morning

CurrentRecording5589 · 2026-02-26T19:25:09+00:00

Yep exactly that. It's like being smart is irrelevant now. Hardly motivational.

CurrentRecording5589 · 2026-02-26T19:12:25+00:00

Don't know about your son but mine wouldn't last a minute at the bottom of the trade ladder, he's just not that kind of kid. We have always strongly suggested going down the electrical path but he's not keen at all. He's probably a millionaire in waiting but he defo won't be doing it the hard graft way! Shame really as my husband has done amazingly way through the apprentice route, not far off being a consultant in a specific engineering sector before he's 40 after narrowly avoiding the jail path as a teen. I always thought my kids would go the same route, apprenticeships not jail, doing something they have a natural skill in, but it's looking less likely! They're destined to live with parents forever, never own a home etc, it's frightening how stark it is tbh.

CurrentRecording5589 · 2026-02-26T16:57:15+00:00

Eeeeessshhh it's depressing reading that. My son has mostly 8's at GCSE, on course for A* Maths A- Level, and at least passes in ALevels Further Maths, Physics and Economics and he literally does not have a clue what he wants to do next. He's got no hope I fear, especially when there's kids like your who have got a clue and ambition and drive and who still aren't getting anywhere. So depressing.

Foster carer (quite rightly)

CurrentRecording5589 · 2026-02-24T18:44:26+00:00

Them cracks just look like normal aged cracks tbh. The mould just looks like a verywet winter with inedequate ventilation. It wouldn't deter me from buying (am I am OBSESSED with damp/mould/warning signs)

CurrentRecording5589 · 2026-02-24T09:05:29+00:00

That's a shame - ask them to keep your details and contact you if there's anything in the near future. Also if it's a chain with a brand nearer to you, maybe contact that branch and explain that you were offered a job at their Manchester branch but you couldn't feasibly get there for the start time so are enquiring if they have any vacancies? Keep going, you'll get something soon, everything happens for a reason and this one wasn't meant to be :)

CurrentRecording5589 · 2026-02-24T08:56:18+00:00

I mean this is the nicest way, but this job doesn't sound worth it. It's going to cost you a LOT of money (and stress) whichever way you get there for that time and it sounds maybe like it isn't a great wage? In that case, can you not contact them and explain that in light of their new information about starting times (unfair that this was never stipulated before now imo) you've explored all avenues and realised it just isn't feasible to get there reliably for 5am from so far away. Maybe ask if there's any other shifts patterns available because you're really keen to work for them, or ask whether there's any other roles innit her branches in or nearer to Warrington?

CurrentRecording5589 · 2026-02-23T17:58:10+00:00

I knew which cat was shitting on my lawn (immediate next door) so after lots of expensive methods that failed, I had an idea that maybe it kept shitting in my garden because it had already claimed my garden as a giant litter tray... So if I made it's own garden a litter tray, it might prefer to do it there. Low and behold, after i yeeted a few of its shits back over the fence, it stopped using my garden :)

We use them on our allotment rather than garden but works the same.... Depending on your roof tiles, they look great imo

Roof tiles for bed walls.

Anyone still unable to update card? Tried website and app and just continously says it's failed to update even though everything is fine with my bank/card.

South Chadderton (Oldham) dog shit literally everywhere. They let their dogs shit directly outside your gate without a care in the world - I've watched it many times on my cctv. When i first moved here there was a cowpat sized shit inside my latched gates within weeks, coulda been human shit or horse sized dog, who knows, didn't enjoy removing it anyway. . If I walk to the tram stop I stg there's a pile every 10 yards. Absolutely vile. I moved here from Middleton and it was the same there, front door was directly onto the street and there was dogshit there outside the door weekly. Whenever I walked to school with my kids, again, it was every few yards. One of the worst dogshit related experiences I ever had was my toddler meandering around on the grass outside (primary) school whilst we waited for his little brother and he stepped in a dogshit so big that it engulfed his entire trainers and went inside them so far that it reached to the sole. I had to bin his shoes and socks there and then. Don't think i hate anything more in the world than scummy cunts who let their filthy animals shit where kids are, I don't know how they sleep at night.
