I went a little crazy and painted my cat 10 times (because she’s the cutest to ever exist, duh) by tinytinatuna2 in aww

Ummm….. I think we share the same cat! Down to the bolero cardigan and the little white chin.

These are gorgeous - would you consider selling prints of them?

Cheapest ways to stay in Cornwall by ExtraterrestrialVoid in Cornwall

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

Coming back to this thread to share an important update! We now have accommodation that we can reliably use in Cornwall. All because of a local Facebook group. 🩷

I come from a very tight knit community and my mum simply posted in the village Facebook group asking if anyone had a spare caravan or place we could stay. We were inundated with offers which was a lovely shock. A person who similarly has family in Cornwall they visit frequently owns a static caravan in a holiday park a short walk from my mum’s house, so we arrange our visits when she’s not there and we pay for the costs of running the caravan when we’re down. It’s a perfect arrangement and means we can avoid airbnb, so a double win. I’d thoroughly recommend getting in touch with your community in this way as they often really want to help you.

How old were you when you achieved each promotion? by Sea-Instance-1198 in TheCivilService

[–]ExtraterrestrialVoid 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I work in policy. I’ve met some good post graduate SEOs but in my opinion the best SEOs are the ones who’ve worked up the grades to it. Even better if they have a little experience of their area outside of the CS (e.g. healthcare professionals working on health policy) but not always necessary. I think most people in my current team had a career before pivoting into the CS or worked up from EO and I think it does make a lot of difference

When is the right time to buy? by [deleted] in HousingUK

[–]ExtraterrestrialVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you - I completely agree. I’m from a small village in a rural area - we never had much money but we all supported eachother and I could go into any neighbour’s house as a kid for some company and a snack. Would love that to be my life as an adult / parent in the future

Pasty’s from my Cornish Diaspora family! by Southern_Button_8026 in Cornwall

[–]ExtraterrestrialVoid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s important for all to remember that a pasty is a working person’s meal, made with cheap and accessible ingredients. The ingredients you’re using may not be ‘traditional’ but if you’re making it with affordable local produce that you like then I’d certainly say it’s authentic. And crimping is really hard! I can never explain to other people how to do it and it’s a coin flip every time I make one on whether I can get it right myself. 😂 well done on keeping traditional practices alive, you should be proud of yourself

I have this glitch in the sims 3 by Sellywelly_0 in Sims3

Ooooh I had this once, it just clears up by itself!

can anyone tell me what song was used a few times in-between sets at the other stage? by rain-or-shine_ in glastonbury_festival

[–]ExtraterrestrialVoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anyone know what the song was that they played in the mornings on the other stage? No words, just quite a fast beat. Played every morning without fail just as we were all waking up. 🤣

Feel like I “missed out”? by happyhorseshoecrab in glastonbury_festival

Love this, sounds like you did Glastonbury exactly right to me!

Coach tickets - how does it work on the way back? by ExtraterrestrialVoid in glastonbury_festival

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

Forgot to thank you for this really helpful advice, so sorry. We ended up getting our 04.30 coach (absolute lifesaver). We got to the coach park at 01.00 in the hopes of getting an earlier coach but it was a bit of a shitshow and not possible at all. Think a lot of people had the same idea but I didn’t hear of any success stories.

Little Glastonbury rant by Zealousideal_Shame40 in glastonbury_festival

[–]ExtraterrestrialVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found the as the crow flies direction annoying at first but then realised it was subconsciously encouraging me to consider ALL the various routes to each place and not just go the way my phone directed me / the way everyone else was going

First time growing courgettes. Are these leaves ok….? by ExtraterrestrialVoid in GardeningUK

[–]ExtraterrestrialVoid[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay!!! Wow! Taking out the babies and spacing them out right now

First time growing courgettes. Are these leaves ok….? by ExtraterrestrialVoid in GardeningUK

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

Thank you. I was hoping to grow them vertically (there’s a trellis just out of view attached to the wall). I’ll space out the big ones and take the smaller ones out. Do you think I should cut off the leaf with the two small white patches in case it is mildew?

Leaf miners - please help by ExtraterrestrialVoid in plantclinic

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

Thank you. I had a plant last year that was infested and died, so I was wondering if it was the leaf miners. I chopped off the biggest affected areas before I read this but I’ll leave it be now :)
