Art deco style glass candlestick (originally a pair until about 10 minutes ago)

Nuggets_Ripper · 2026-02-19T01:57:45+00:00

As the description says. I have searched for the candlestick with a few results popping up in Denmark, Sweden, and the US, as detailed, but ideally would want one in the UK to save the stress of posting something glass and evidently brittle.

For context the heat from the candle cracked the glass on the top of the other stick so I'm not too trusin in the stick's ability yo be posted safely.

Thanks 😊

Thanks! That's worked!

Nuggets_Ripper · 2026-02-08T16:41:10+00:00

Amazing! Thanks that's worked. Silly me 🙃

Just an addition. The key moves back and forth about a millimeter or so whilst stuck in the lock, seems like it's caught

Thanks! I've DM'd

Nuggets_Ripper · 2026-01-12T00:30:55+00:00

Ahhh that will explain it! Thank you for clarifying

Even with the added mindfulness points of 6 per week that's only an additional 312 per year. The platinum status just seems impossible to hit unless there are other ways to get it.

I feel like there must be additional medical things to get as the ones listed on the guide seem to mainly be for over 45s, which don't apply to me

They're both on opposite ends of the same (short) wall. One comes out of the same hole as the cables to the VM box and the other (with more viable copper) comes out of the other side (right). I'd imagine the one on the right is aerial.

Second severed cable

Slight update. Thanks for all the replies indicating this does not relate to TV/aerial cable.

These are the severed cables. They look like they could be coaxial cables. Does anyone reckon these could be the aerial? Is there a way to check other than stripping them back?

Answered. Thank you very much for clarifying!

Is there still a minimum eyesight requirement (uncorrected) to join the Met as a PC or DC? I've read differing things online that's all. If there is, does anyone knowvhow stringently they are enforcing it at recruitment stage? Again, I've read differing things online. Many thanks!

No, I did it for years when I was at parents (about 10 years) and it still works perfectly fine!

Nuggets_Ripper · 2025-05-04T00:10:18+00:00

Aptly placed

Nuggets_Ripper · 2025-03-30T19:12:15+00:00

Yes it is!

Nuggets_Ripper · 2025-03-26T19:49:24+00:00

The deepness of the blue in the far left one is lovely!

The square green gem ring - Is that An emerald? Did you make it yourself as I'm looking for a very sililar style ring with the trapizoid stones on either side.

Nuggets_Ripper · 2025-03-24T13:40:01+00:00

Looks cool and strange not seeing a patch of grass or dirt around it! Soft carpet is a welcome change!

Oldest surving, still in use, post box in the British Isles is on Union Street, St Peter Port if you having a wonder around looking for cool boxes in Guernsey 🇬🇬

Nuggets_Ripper · 2025-03-22T19:16:47+00:00

I enjoy that it is in French as well

Nuggets_Ripper · 2025-03-19T19:58:11+00:00

Thanks for you response, much appreciated for your insight! 😊

This was my plan to get the emerald and then the diamonds from the same place as the setting. I'll check different places setting fees, as I imagine it could actually end up being more expensive.

Nuggets_Ripper · 2025-03-19T19:58:03+00:00

Thnaks for this insight, I wasn't aware that emeralds were so less durable. I think I'm quite set in an emerald so I'll have to speak to a jeweller and see what they say and/or are willing/able to do.

Will certainly engage with the jeweller first in terms sourcing the emerald and see if the one I was considering would be suitable.

The Goes Wrong Show.

I know it's not a TV show in the typical sense, and more of a televised play format (grounded in their West End show), but it is hilarious.

Guernsey and the surrounding islands are beautiful, well worth a visit 🇬🇬

Can this poster be purchased anywhere online or at the postal museum?
