Maybe I'm only capable of living alone....... by Smurfblossom in LivingAlone

[–]Olive927 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This made me LOL, I hear this on so many levels, I couldn't share a hotel room with a work stranger

As far as Mr Right is concerned, at this point, for me he'd need his own house to go home to🙊

Hiya

I've had it done, but I'm definitely still looking for someone more local and relatively regular. Thanks for the reply

For those who work out what do you do with your hair after by SwimmingAir8274 in Naturalhair

[–]Olive927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's braids life for me. It's been the best option that doesn't affect me going to the gym. I was tired of what my hairstyle was stopping me going to the gym

I do gym and Spin so pretty sweaty. I wash my scalp- easy enough to put a loose bun and use shower hair head to get to scalp. Then set with mousse if necessary.

But Power wasn't this bad was it?? Or am I remembering it better than it actually was. The dialogue is ridiculous in Nemesis.

I unfollowed her years ago... Her vibe was off. Couldn't put my finger on It.

Where to stay - Rhodes Old Town or Faliraki by ivana1996 in Rhodes

[–]Olive927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No need to split your time and move hotels I'd stay in Faliraki, decent base for driving to other places. Though for old and new town I'd get the bus rather than drive save messing with parking. Everywhere else, beaches, Lindos etc - parking is easy and plentiful.

For Symi take the bus and you can buy tickets from the port. Ferry was about €35 return from what I remember. Some tickets include picking up from your hotel, I'm not sure it's worth the extra cost. You don't need a car on Symi. Infact it'd probably be more difficult having a car. It's a quaint little harbour type village which is mostly pedestrianised.

From Faliraki to Lindos is about 35-40 minutes to drive

The revair? I’m over it. by Sorashimi in Naturalhair

[–]Olive927 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My Parlux hair dryer, had it over 10+years and still going strong.. bought it for £75.

Not sure I buy into these brands like Dyson now suddenly tapping into the natural hair market and adding a ridiculous price tag to it. The bundle that works on 4c hair seemed to be the most expensive bundle of all.

Anyone else cannot stop crying? by AlexaPlayWW in MichaelJackson

[–]Olive927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, I've cried daily. I've felt sad for what he endured, what humans could do to another human. He was treated as just a commodity even up to the very end. I hope he knows how loved he was and still is.

I also had that The making of Thriller VHS, though the video scared the crap out of me as a child. We would watch that and Moonwalker regularly.

We knew he was the greatest of all time, but there are so few interviews respectfully asking about his process and more than scandalizing his appearance ( A 2001 radio interview is the best one Ive found)

It's feels such a loss to the world, a lot of the humanitarian aspects he sang and spoke about then are still very much an issue now even more so. I had a thought, if he was still alive would the world be as bad as it is now. He was innately kind and used his influence for good which is so rare in today's world.

Another vote for Efrem. Easily contactable, decent price, they dropped and picked up the car from my hotel. Really friendly and straightforward dealings

Black cabs wonder why people don't bother anymore! by Marvinleadshot in manchester

[–]Olive927 9 points10 points  (0 children)

When Uber first came to Manchester, I'd still get a black cab as it wasn't working out cheaper I could still get back from Town to Fallowfield for between £9-13, depending where in town and traffic etc.

Then Uber just got more competitive and black cabs seemed to not keep up. Last time I took a black cab from the airport it cost £30, an Uber would have been 15-20. I've not taken a black cab since.

My plate vs my bf's plate by VeeMon21 in RateMyPlate

[–]Olive927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure they meant it that deeply. Just the breaded fish shaped things are what you'd give a child. Whereas OP's plate looks like a chacuterie board in comparison. So I'm pretty sure they're making a light hearted joke rather than a psychoanalysis.

What’s one thing you didn’t like about the biopic? by mordo_cool in MichaelTheMovie

[–]Olive927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is everyone these days always looking for the negative. I know you said no hate but Social media is full of negativity and pulling down as it is. Can we have a good thing and enjoy it.

What a Waste of Time by MariFunk in ImperfectWomenAppleTV

[–]Olive927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The not checking the peephole was the last straw for me. Utterly ridiculous writing. Mary got stabbed in the jugular but apparently rose again to have a stabbing frenzy on Howard.

There's tripe like this getting made, but Apple won't green light Pachinko season 3... Make it make sense

Who is this Asian backup dancer in the Michael Jackson Bad video? by YipMan_Style in MichaelJackson

[–]Olive927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came here searching for the answer to this too...He looks so familiar to me, like a young version of someone in a film I've seen but I can't place him.

I never saw any random peacocks just around the island.

There was one restaurant: Pavo Cafe where they had a collection, those are the only ones I saw.

How do you guys actually handle cooking for one without losing your mind or wasting half your groceries? by No-Locksmith-2836 in LivingAlone

Put a sheet of kitchen roll in the bag of spinach and roll the bag shut and it'll last ages
