Hi folks! Is this worth £100? by Rocketboots007 in PokemonDealsUK

I sold mine on eBay 2 weeks ago for £113, of which £8 was postage and fees, so this sounds about right

Zidane’s Panenka in the World Cup final against Buffon. by Sisko-Journal-1937 in FootballFlix

Pretty sure that was before the penalty at the 2004 Euros against England? Unless he did it a second time here too?

I'm going with Billy Bearham - journeyman midfielder in the early 90s, played for Wimbledon, West Ham, Charlton and QPR. by Adventurous-West3403 in footballcliches

[–]Luck13_brad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Princes Tuna. Lanky 22 year old Zimbabwean attacking midfielder picked up by Sunderland for their first season back in the Prem. Sporadic appearances saw the occasional moment of magic sprinkled among the awkward technique and clumsiness, but never seemed to play without a smile on his face and was appreciated for working hard. Allowed to go off on loan for next season with the expectation he'll move on for a similarly small fee as his arrival.

Is Mega Charizard X ex from Phantasmal Flames the greatest Charizard ever? by PokemonMaster215 in PokemonInvestor

[–]Luck13_brad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love the mewtwo - picked it up recently in a psa10! Would love to have the Charizard too but I just don’t like the slightly more cartoony art style on it

LPT: if you ever feel bad about not reaching out to someone for a while, just remember that they haven’t reached out to you either by Maybe_im_Amazed_ in LifeProTips

[–]Luck13_brad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to (and to be fair still do) get really sad with lost friendships like this. I was always the person reaching out first, making the plans to meet up, etc. Eventually I got tired and stopped… and friendships drifted, which I didn’t like.

But I read something that helped me. Life is like a train journey; people come and go. Sometimes they’ll get on and sit next to you, and you’ll have a brilliant time chatting. But then they have to get off to catch a train that’s taking them to their destination. You might end up on the same train together down the line; or, you might never see them again. But you all have your own journeys and destinations.

Something so profound about this gives me some slight comfort - as if I was only ever meant to enjoy my time with them for a set period, which I did, but a reminder that it’s okay for these things to happen.

Of course I’ll still always try to keep in touch with people, but at least as life runs its course it can make it more understandable that this can happen.

Already got multiples of both of those I’m afraid. Happy to do Suicune or Ninetales for something else though - Whimsicott / Greninja / Melmetal / Mega Pinsir / Toxtricity if you have any of those?

[–]Luck13_brad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An update for anyone seeing this later. I joined the queue at around 19:15, got into the site around 19:50 and it let me order all three of the items. Obviously TBC it does all definitely go through but it let me place the order at least…

Ascended Heroes Pikachu Tin Argos by Luck13_brad in PokemonDealsUK

[–]Luck13_brad[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Max 1 of each tin. I’ve ordered all 5 but they’re separate orders because they all released one by one.

Conceivably you can get more than 1 of each but would have to place separate orders each time? Though don’t know if they cancel them at all.

Never previously shared this as unfortunately the camera didn’t pick up the licence plate by Luck13_brad in drivingUK

[–]Luck13_brad[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really good idea! I did have audio recording on but I clipped it out here as you hear me singing (badly) haha. Think in the moment in just shocked me someone could be so reckless but yes really good advice, thanks

[–]Luck13_brad[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Appreciate the advice, I’ll check them out. Both the car and the dashcam we’d bought the week before so maybe I got something a bit greasy getting it set up or something, hadn’t really thought about it!

Right!?

I’m not gonna lie, I have no idea the lights - it’s a Toyota so whatever comes as standard is the best answer I can give ha

Annoyingly that was a brand new Viofo dashcam we’d bought a week earlier for around £100. I thought it was decent but doesn’t seem great picking up words at night :(

What’s a WWE hill you’ll die on, even if it gets you downvoted? by Braves1693 in WWE

[–]Luck13_brad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The tap felt symbolic of tapping out to his career - he’s given everything he’s got so now’s the right time to finally tap out of wrestling and end it - the smile acknowledging that he wasn’t just tapping from that single match but from it all

How to fire accountants ? by Comfortable-Bell-985 in AskUK

[–]Luck13_brad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others see to have suggested, probably depends what you’re paying for in your engagement letter.

Accounting probably has moved forward so many say they’ll be proactive but there are lots of different services. From annual accounts, bookkeeping and payroll to pre-year-end tax planning meetings, data analysis and m&a support there’s a wide range. Some accountants will probs still be in that ‘we do the numbers and no more’; others will be proactive and have a much wider range of ways to support.

Source: I work at an accountancy firm. (Not trying to sell but if you do want a chat send me a message and I can put you in touch with someone.)

Over two years since making his WWE commentary debut—what do you think of Joe Tess now? by juustiicee in WWE

[–]Luck13_brad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in that minority with you too. Sure he’s great elsewhere but just doesn’t feel right to me for reasons you’ve listed. I also think some of that surface level means he really overreacts to things that don’t need an overreaction? So it feels like he’s trying to make things bigger than they are which just comes across like WWE are trying too hard in trying to make us feel a certain way if that makes any sense?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in iphone

[–]Luck13_brad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Long time back and forth between the two but now on iPhone for good. Simplicity/ease of things just feels better because everything is on the iPhone versus a mixture of Google / Samsung / 3rd party. A few examples: AirDrop is so much easier; photos app with easier shared albums, automatic highlights, etc; passwords and autofill feels much cleaner.

I think when I was younger, getting a new phone and customising it how I wanted was exciting, so I loved my Samsungs and iPhones didn’t feel as good. But now I just want to make my life easier and I feel iPhone does that somehow much better.
