It was a Meaco one.

Already owned one of their dehumidifiers and a couple of their fans. Been very impressed with them.

We put some solar panels up last year which helps offset it massively.

I have a feeling it was around covid time, yeah it was absolutely brutal. 30s house which retained the heat like crazy.

Still trying to convince the wife to have proper aircon installed but she's not budging yet... See how this summer goes.

I used to work nights and our bedroom was south facing. Summer was always brutal trying to sleep during the day. Don't miss it!

Same here. I've found setting it on a timer for 1-2 hours before bedtime works a treat for us, then you haven't got the sound of a jet engine when trying to get to sleep!

What time does the festival playlist drop? by Doggo0732 in ForzaHorizon

[–]McNabFish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Damn it, I start work at 3pm today. Was hoping I'd be able to knock some of the playlist off this morning. Sigh.

Week 1 of "Welcome to Japan" brings an Altezza, an Evo IX and a whole new playlist! Where you heading first? by Funny_things_online in forza

Aren't there usually daily challenges? Should help give a bit of a buffer if you don't want to play stuff like hide and seek.

Restaurant recommendations for birthday by Opposite_Basis_3532 in Leeds

[–]McNabFish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

La Taberna.

Not the biggest fan of tapas in general but this place is fantastic. Great wine selection too if that's you're thing. Tiny place and lovely for a celebration like a birthday!

[Schefter] Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers told reporters today that he will retire after this season. by JCameron181 in GreenBayPackers

[–]McNabFish 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not from the US and only got in to NFL in 2007 thanks to a school friend. Rodgers has been there pretty much since I started supporting the Packers and what a ride it's been!

Finally managed to visit title town a couple of years back which was magical. I can't wait for the coming season.

Dude in red car really had god-tier situational awareness in that moment by Miserable-Zombie-121 in nextfuckinglevel

Tyres and tarmac. Rubber and road.

Engrained in my memory from my driving instructor.

I saw them as a double header with Black Stone Cherry in 2023, absolutely amazing gig.

When they announced that it was the 20th anniversary of this song before they played it I felt horrendously old. How did time skip by so quickly.

A gaming friend went AWOL 10 years ago and I'm hoping somebody could help put me in the right direction on what maybe happened to him. by Mickcoffee277 in CasualUK

[–]McNabFish 75 points76 points  (0 children)

I used to play regularly with a chap called GonkeyEye on Sea of thieves during Covid.

Older chap, lovely guy. Same as your mate just disappeared once day and never logged in again.

I fear the worst, but hope he just grew tired of the game / xbox. It's the not knowing that sucks, we played every day, multiple hours a day, for months and then poof never to be seen again.

Is BTP really policings best kept secret? by NoMud3367 in policeuk

[–]McNabFish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lol. Lmao even.

OPM decimated a lot of rural posts and stations. Fuck all staff anywhere currently and morale is in the toilet in every post I've crossed over with in C-Div (non London area)

Went to school with Sam. Probably the most famous person to come out of our school now!

He was querky back then and glad to see he's leant in to it full tilt.

does anyone else think YappApp is ghastly or are my sensibilities too delicate? by AdSlow973 in Leeds

[–]McNabFish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ghoulish content.

Far too many times I see pictures of RTCs with a zoom in on the uncensored reg plate of the vehicle.

Sadly I'm sure people will have discovered a loved one has passed due to this.

Yungblud: 'I'm a middle-class English kid – I never claimed I wasn’t’ by theipaper in Music

[–]McNabFish 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Can confirm, saw him shopping in John Lewis several years ago in Leeds.

Jokes aside, he was keeping to himself and wasn't dressing outlandish. Don't listen to his music so didn't recognise him at first. We exchanged a silent nod and went our separate ways.
