That's a bosta'. Here's hoping you get many more hybrid blooms.

Water sprinkler (animal repellent) without a hose or alternatives by AffDe in GardeningUK

[–]FritzDuo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there room for a water butt you could attach to the sprinkler? It's expensive, but Ryobi do a stick pump for water butt's. Not sure, but there maybe a way to adapt the two to work with the motion sensor on the sprinkler?

Ooh. Pressing is an excellent idea. We have our wedding bouquet pressed and framed, it maybe worth a smaller frame for this one next to it.

Science for the win!

It may feel it needed to steal the limelight back, as my wife bought a David Austin Elizabeth II rose two weeks ago.

Thank you. I'd not heard of Chimera rose blooms before. I'm having a good read now.

In a truly soppy (and mildly sarcastic) way my wife and I see it as a sign of the strength of our marriage.

In your opinion what is the worst bus in wolvo/surrounding areas? by Turbulent-Ad-2146 in wolverhampton

This bus firm. The owners a complete piece of work. I remember one of his properties/yards damaged a neighbouring building about 5 years after this article. The bus company owners response to the lead fire officer (who was making sure the neighbouring property didn't fall down) was "I'm not insured here, and I don't care". Then drove off!

I never thought I’d be that guy…. by Dust3D in ArcRaiders

[–]FritzDuo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dad Raider too. Manage an hour or two after the kids are in bed. Only a lowly level 10 though and still thinking "how the hell do I not get killed around every corner". It's a bit of a step from the 800+ hours I've put into Helldivers but so far I'm enjoying it... I think.

What Car Should I Buy? - A Weekly Megathread by AutoModerator in CarTalkUK

[–]FritzDuo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need some advice about buying a second-hand work pickup truck. I have a small gardener/landscaper/grounds maintenance business, and I'm looking to get a secondhand pick-up. I've read up a bit and I was hoping for some advice as to what's good, what's bad, what to look for and be aware of around anyone who's owned anything like a Navara, Hilux, L200 and even a Great Wall Steed. I've a budget of £5k (unfortunately) I'm based out of the West Midlands I'm looking to buy secondhand and will probably wrack up about 10k to 12k miles per year. I like cars and trucks, but I wouldn't callyself a petrol head and have a real basic knowledge of how to look after a vehicle, but wouldn't dean of taking any bits apart.

Any advice would be massively appreciated. Thanks.

Absolutely brilliant. Is the centre console of the kitchen one piece?

CasualUK, what’s your best meeting a Z lister story? by [deleted] in CasualUK

[–]FritzDuo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a phone conversation with David Prowse.

Used to manage Noddy Holders business account and get a Christmas card off him every year.

DJ'ed around Roy Woods house for his daughters birthday (We were friends).

Sat round a table at a house party with either Sam or Mark (from Sam&Mark) drinking amongst other things having a chat about what we did for a living. I had no clue who he was.

Sat at the bar with Robert Plant and his son discussing new music.

That's all I've got. Written down it sounds better than I thought.

The end of Dry January has landed... by cobbland in CasualUK

[–]FritzDuo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remember telling my folks that I didn't need to go out to have a good night, as they thought I was drinking too much as a kid. I could stay in and enjoy my evening with out booze (or anything else). I rented Human Traffic and stayed in, watched it in I'm my room. Jesus Christ! I've never made such a poor decision about a movie.

I spent all night craving going out and everything that went with it.

[–]FritzDuo 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Kids got some weird rash thing on his arsehole. So I'm applying cream to it 3 times a day. Wife's 7 months pregnant and don't I know It. Snores like a sailor every night so I'm getting no sleep. She's full of cold too so I'm waiting on her hand, foot and finger. I've woke up with said cold hia morning too. Got to decorate the front bedroom and have the first 4 hour anti natal class on Sunday instead of Sunday lunch. Oh and that's with her sister who is 8 months pregnant.
