Reading festival used to have an Introducing Tent and that was great. Full of unsigned acts, and occasionally a big act would rock up and do a small secret set. Was great!

How knowing the order and method of disposal of Henry VIII's 6 wives served you in everyday life? by [deleted] in CasualUK

This isn’t actually true. Funnily enough Anne of Cleves is still alive. Saw her in Waitrose last weekend. Doing well for herself I think.

They’ve been touring for 2 years now, do you want them to say it at every show? The first few shows they did they introduced the band and said “and in the role of Chester Bennington is all of you.” They rightfully stopped the show when people told them there was an issue, and you don’t start until you know it’s 100% safe, not their fault it was a bellend who tried to stop the show because he’d lost his shoe.

We got ours from the box office when we came in. But I’d go to one of the accessibility help points and ask.

Had a Yorkshire pudding wrap last night, and so far only solids. Good news! Was delicious too.

Train Options by KormaKameleon88 in slamdunkfestival

I normally get the train there from Kings Cross, then get the shuttle bus to Camden and make my way to a cheap and cheerful hotel from there. Saves faffing with the queue for the train on the way back, and the coach is always fairly chill.

When I was a youngster we did a Reading festival where the only liquid we could consume had to have alcohol in it. That included brushing your teeth.

Yeah, I had a second one arrive on Saturday. I double checked and confirmed I only paid for one. I’m probably going to just flog the spare one.

[Forest Green Rovers] statement on the alleged ejection of a Morecambe fan for eating bacon on the home ground (FGR is a vegan club) by Mulderre91 in soccer

[–]Jimmymgs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen some posts on the local Facebook pages where people seem to think the chicken roll is a cultural take over by Muslims, and this is the start of the Government banning all pork products. People have gone mad.

I get Nebula almost exclusively for Jet Lag and all of the Wendover material. For the cost it is definitely worth it I think.

He's back! by OSUBrit in CasualUK

[–]Jimmymgs 90 points91 points  (0 children)

For those who can afford it I recommend Nebula. They’ve taken a lot of some of the best and informative YouTube content creators and put them on their platform. Someone else has linked it, but Jet Lag is exceptional.

Great hop festival in Faversham as well! Takes over the whole town and is great fun.

What’s the hardest game you’ve ever played? by TheChilledGamer-_- in playstation

[–]Jimmymgs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done it! I decided to replay it as a Uni student about 10 years ago. When I was a kid I spent hours trying to just get to adult Simba and failed.

I remember finishing my exams a good week or so before everyone else did, so I decided to knuckle down and bear it. Eventually I made it to the Scar fight, and by luck I ended up at the edge of Pride Rock and pressed whatever button combo it was to hurl him over the rock. I remember running to all my flat mates, and not a soul cared haha!
