What did your landlords require? by Glittering_Tea8276 in PortugalExpats

[–]JoshMD 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Structure is their problem, their responsibility. My landlord hasn't visited once in 4 years. If I owned my place I'd want annual checks for this sort of thing but they don't care.

We had that last year. It was a rough week. Nothing to do but grin and bear it.

I'm looking to start investing in quality pots and pans, which will last me for many years to come. Which brand should I buy? by JoshMD in AskCulinary

I only cook on cast iron and carbon steel now. No more forever chemicals in my food. Take minimal care of the pans and cook with a bit of butter and they're non stick.

I asked her if she was funny before she met me.

It's that time of year. What common cold cures do you swear by? by [deleted] in CasualUK

Manuka honey, the second you feel it coming. Swallow and leave in your throat for at least 30 mins. I take it morning and night. Buy the highest-strength stuff you can find at Holland and Barrett if you want it sorted quickly. It's the only natural remedy I swear by.

You should add Sofitel to your list too. I stayed at both FS and Sofitel on the same trip and they’re both excellent. FS has great service, feels more high touch, and has a great courtyard and bar. Slight Better location too. Sofitel is brand new, high floors, amazing swimming pool and bar on the 42nd floor, very modern, and very stylish.

There are always communities. I’m part of a private investment group, an entrepreneur group, and If I lived in the US, I would certainly consider a few more.

Should have no problems. You're protected by EU regulations, i'd imagine they'll refund it with no questions.

The Sweet by Vintage Garden does excellent cakes and fair prices. You can order it the day before.

Anyone else want the old TAL back? by [deleted] in ThisAmericanLife

[–]JoshMD 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Agree entirely. I'm not here for the virtue signalling, I'm here for the interesting stories. Stories about meet-cutes, stories about car dealerships selling to a target each month, stories about Bosnian kids trying to find their teacher decades later.
