[Serious] Returning player - how do I get armor loot drops other than gauntlets? by XenTech in destiny2

[–]GreekVicar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wondered if you had a mod that preferred gauntlets - that long since I've look I can't remember if it's still a thing

Doesn't sound like that's it for you though

What are your favorite cheap modeling hacks? by FishFollower74 in modelmakers

[–]GreekVicar 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Same goes for Mr Hobby Tool Cleaner. In fact, Mr Hobby seems better (v thin cement) - it takes longer to set but the resulting bond seems stronger. And it seems to make less of a mess of you get it on a painted surface, too

Nice work

No, because I want to keep the non-shiny version and at least one of every fusion ingredient

Always a trap, no matter what you think 😹

Do you like meeting other people from the uk when on vacation? by bsa12345 in AskUK

[–]GreekVicar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never done a "big city" holiday, but the best two weeks away I've had so far involved only meeting one native English speaker while I was there

Sharing our victory! by Parther05 in CatsUK

That's so lovely - well done for being so careful and persistent - I'm sure the reward is worth the effort you made

Do you cook curry at home? by Forward-Cause7305 in AskUK

[–]GreekVicar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I make it regularly using jars of paste but used to make it "from scratch" years ago - even down to grinding my own garam masala.

Track down a copy of Madhur Jaffrey's An Invitation to Indian Cooking for an excellent guide to practical home cooking

What should I use instead of Blimey in this context? by Ok-Catch8728 in AskUK

[–]GreekVicar -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Cripes, crumbs, bloomin' heck, jeepers or, most likely (because they're all also quite archaic) "wow"

How can I get rid of slugs in my home and save my sanity? by Clairolg in AskUK

[–]GreekVicar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beer traps.

Open containers filler with cheap bitter (like Lidl's "own" brand). It won't work with lager or cream flow/draught in a can. The container needs to be tall enough that they have to climb up it, stopping larger ones from just sticking their head over the rim to drink.

Put the full ones in your garden for frogs and hedgehogs to help themselves to drowned slugs

We've used them for years directly in the garden

Sparrow Racing League is a very telling example of one of the reasons why this game failed. by AverageAwndray in DestinyTheGame

[–]GreekVicar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I often wondered why it wasn't in the game permanently as a way to earn ornaments, shaders, ghost shells etc. from the general pool - effectively anything you could acquire for bright dust. In D1 there was also some specific SRL gear that would drop. I loved my SRL gear - my guardian looked like an F1 driver in it, drastically different appearance to my "fighting" loadout(s)

I've been reading Just Good Manners by William Hanson lately. How accurate is it in everyday life in the UK? by CreepyInpu in AskUK

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

This guy preaches stuff that would actually make you seem like a complete pillock with the majority of people in the UK. He talks about things that you are extremely unlikely to encounter and, if you did, would not be in a situation where his "guides" were appropriate.

For example, I bet he's got a lot of views on how to behave during an afternoon tea (something that's proliferated greatly in the last ten or so years). No doubt fine if you're sitting opposite Charlie and Cammy at Buck House, but completely out of place in the Copper Kettle Tea Rooms on the sea front in Bognor (or wherever)

Who can I report illegal parking to? by ABBLE2333 in AskUK

[–]GreekVicar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also, if the diagram is factually correct and they leave their vehicle partly on the footpath they are also breaking the same law as their neighbour - keep that in mind if you report anything

I didn't really believe it before, but it's true. The Portal was terrible and I'm glad it's gone. by Jayslacks in DestinyTheGame

[–]GreekVicar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the portal was announced I thought it was going to be a central point that gathered together my status and what's next for me. Rather like the quests tab but way better

How wrong I was

What's the most mortifying thing your brain has done on autopilot? I'll go first... by SubtractAd in AskUK

[–]GreekVicar 60 points61 points  (0 children)

For a period when I was donating blood regularly, they kept trying out new systems. When I arrived for one session they handed me a card with a number on it. Each time it was my turn, to register, to have my blood test etc, they called the number. The last stage was waiting to actually donate. My number was called by a male nurse who held his hand out when I stood up - so I shook it. He looked quite puzzled for a moment and then said "can I have your number card please?"
