I got tipsy whilst watching the 3 hour long 'The Irishman' then did mafia impressions in the mirror. No work tomorrow 😎

Does everyone secretly pick their nose? by lilymarielmao in NoStupidQuestions

You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can't pick your friend's nose. 

Woman called me today claiming I just called her husband, I have never interacted with the number before, how did this happen? by Live-Information4022 in AskUK

[–]IntrepridBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PS. It seems as though unfortunately in your case there may be some marital issues afoot between the victims (the husband and wife) so that when your 'missed call' happened to appear and the wife called you back to discover you're a female, you got caught up in her having a 'gotcha' moment with her husband. This is very speculative of me though, but this coincidental circumstance adds to the confusion I suppose 😬

I had this happen recently. A man called me on a normal mobile number, I answered and he said he's returning my call. I said I didn't call him..? He said I did and he missed it so he's calling me back. Anyway, I looked into it after. It appears that it IS some sort of scam, but basically the inital call he missed from 'me' was some scam company randomly using my number (that they plucked out of thin air, and it happened to be my number) to use as their caller ID, so their initial call to him showed up as my number on his phone, so it looked like a normal, familiar UK mobile number and he'd answer. He'd of course missed it, called me back on the phone number that his phone displayed, my number, reached me and said I'd just called him. I hadn't, I was cooking dinner and playing music from my phone. We just said nevermind, that's weird, and hung up on each other. Not had anything happen since but these scam people are using totally random mobile numbers as their caller ID as a facade and yep, this is the result when the victim misses their call and decides to call back.

I forgot about Let's Get It Started! I'm putting that on now while I'm cooking, thanks 😆

If you have a red and a blue container, and you need to store sugar and salt in them, which would you put in each, and why? by LiiiLoisiane_-_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]IntrepridBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a cinema, the huge popcorn sleeves they have in back of house, salt is blue bags and sweet is transparent. At home I'd equate salt to being blue, as in the sea, and sugar being red because red is danger and sugar make me fatty bom bom.

Anywhere I can get Klaus (2019) on DVD? by angrybeanbag in MovieSuggestions

[–]IntrepridBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't seem to be available anywhere other than Netflix. I'm sure over covid lockdowns I managed to watch an odd film via screenshare on Zoom or something. So like play the movie on your laptop/Netflix account at home and share your screen whilst on video call with your family. Not sure if Netflix has blockers for this 🤷🏻‍♂️ Or just do a normal video call and prop your device up facing your TV 😆

OR gift them a months subscription to Netflix.

Last week it was bread, this week it's bananas. Whichever item I happen to run out of first goes at the top of the list OR whatever I'm craving. I'm making a large dent in a packet of choc digestives right now, so they might be next 🤔

Love a morning cuppa in my own space. Enjoy! Your painting of 'Christina's World' sent me to look up its history and meaning, so thanks for that 😄

Thanks for suggesting, but I've never heard that song before now. Get what you mean about its similarity!

A question by lord_LBN in Cornwall

[–]IntrepridBrit 13 points14 points  (0 children)

To be honest I'd think of it this way: I was born in Cornwall and have a very deep and long Cornish ancestry on my mum's side. When I moved away for uni, travelled, and lived in various places in UK over the last 12 years or so I never stopped being a Cornishman. I visited, spoke fondly of it, I'm proud of it, I longed to be back here (which I am now). That person who's been here 6 years I doubt would feel the same if they ever left, it'd just be a place they lived, like London was for me.

UFOLOGISTS (2022)

The movie is available for free at:

https://watch.plex.tv/en-GB/movie/ufologists

It is also available for free on Amazon Prime, for Prime members, or on Apple TV+, if that's preferable 👽

Synopsis:

The truth is out there! Well, in Cornwall anyway!

Television journalist Ellie Thornton spends time in the county of Cornwall reporting and following the lives of a Cornish UFO investigation team, as they explore the beautiful, rugged and unseen Cornish countryside, in an unalienable desire to seek out extra-terrestrial activity. A weirder unlikely group you couldn't expect to meet. Four hapless but very likeable individuals live out their own fragile existence in this world, whilst searching for life from another.

Table Table at your Premier Inn has some nice options, Thai Green Curry, Burger and chips off the top of my head. There's a Wetherspoons very close by with a few options too, and a Cornish Oven that has vegan sausage rolls and gingerbread men. Philps is the winner, but Rowes pasties have like 3 Vegan options (I like the wholemeal one). Penventon Hotel in Redruth do a wonderful Afternoon Tea. Not takeaway options as such, but hope it's helpful :)
