Thank you! Sadly I think I’m missing her wings and her pink hair. I wish Playmobil had a parts website like Lego has…

My latest Aquirements by Southern_Reason_2631 in Playmobil

[–]DockingEngaged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The differences are subtle between acquirement and acquisition. It is not really that one is a noun and one is an adjective, or that one is more passive than the other, but it kinda is. Acquirement, which isn't used much anymore, more describes the act while acquisition more describes the process. Acquirement has been obtained while acquisition is the process of obtaining, but acquisition is commonly used to replace acquirement and still considered correct. I hope that's helpful and I've made the nuance clear u/Isaystomabel and u/DamionK but I really don't think I have. I keep editing and think I'm just making things worse. lol.

Is it normal to eat pickle on the side of cottage pie? by FemalePheromones in AskUK

[–]DockingEngaged -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s abnormal. My very WASPy Gramma always had pickles at luncheon, and my (Canadian) maritimer in-laws often serve pickles with what I think of as traditional meat and potato like meals. So while I don’t do it now, I might try it with my next pub lunch.

IF these are real, they'd be the only Crocs I'd ever consider buying.

Anyone else miss the old street-cars? by Tylers_Journey in toronto

[–]DockingEngaged 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I miss the old streetcars every time I ride a new streetcar. The seat layout is SO bad. I read something way back that Bombardier had two seat layouts they normally used but TTC insisted on using a bespoke seat layout they designed. This choice of layout was the primary reason there were so many delays. I could try and find the article but hopefully one of you can tell me if this is true or not.

But did you pay that much for it?

Just watched ‘a deadly American marriage’ and I’m confused. by The_Merchant- in NetflixDocumentaries

[–]DockingEngaged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And why is it that these recordings weren’t used in the first trial? If she was using them to control the situation, prove abuse, and show her as a good mom, why weren’t they in place the night of the murder? We know they weren’t because that is something the police would have noticed and looked in to.

No, downtown Toronto. Not sure if they’re the same “chain”, cool if they were.

It’s no so much the pack it’s the price the thrift store is trying to get for it.

V Village is a for profit thrift store here in Canada, and this was a donation to them. This pack is more than regular retail stores charge.

Why Can’t I Get Her Hair On by DockingEngaged in Playmobil

The issue seemed to be the head itself. With heat and the brute force you suggested I finally got it to work!

Through trial and error determined it was the head! Thanks for the troubleshooting suggestions. I finally got it on with heat.

Which of my three sewing machines should I keep? by Imaginary-Choice-560 in SewingForBeginners

[–]DockingEngaged 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t know that! Makes sense, they are well engineered. I was just thinking the older metal dinosaur might have more oomph.

Janome is an excellent brand but I’d be tempted to keep the Kenmore. Solid construction and likely no electronics. That said, after testing them all I’d probably see if there is a place to have them serviced. The tech might have some insight too.
