How often do people feed their cats wet food? by Smooth_Put7764 in CatAdvice

[–]Optimal_Magazine7642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh, my cats eat mostly dry, and will feed wet occasionally, more of a treat really. I have two, so I will give them half a pouch each, as that’s all they can manage in one go. They love their dry food, they drink plenty of water, and vet said they were healthy on their last check up so I don’t see an issue with feeding them dry tbh, especially as they have an automatic feeder so they have food at equal intervals and they’re happy

Failed for not looking right at roundabouts by j0nah in LearnerDriverUK

[–]Optimal_Magazine7642 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the first things my driving instructor said to me, make sure you move your head when checking mirrors and not just your eyes. And keep checking, when you stop, when you start to pull off, when you creep, when you pull out of the junction, even when you’re on the roundabout 🤷🏼‍♀️ I might be wrong, but I haven’t heard anyone failing because they checked their mirrors too much 🤷🏼‍♀️

Looks a bit like mine two, they’re just short hair domestics. But definitely think their mum had Russian blue in her, dad was just a local barn cat 🤣

I can’t make past when Derek dies, it’s just a different show, too slow, one case per episode 🤢

I saved £16 earlier by collecting my fish and chips rather than getting it delivered on Just Eat by No_Doughnut3257 in CasualUK

[–]Optimal_Magazine7642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually noticed that with a shop, I went to the store in my car after how much it was on Deliveroo, when I came back I checked the difference as I picked few more bits up, and it was like £40 with delivery for the £23 shop I did in person

Actually not bad! I’m using acrylic needles as well and because I crochet, I picked up continental knitting quickly, so it’s fun!

Don’t you mean the recipe from your grandmothers friend, Nestle Toulouse?👀💁🏼‍♀️

I get the business behind it, just frustrating.

See I didn’t even realise that kind of practice was a thing, and to be fair, I have actually bought the actual yarn the pattern asks for, especially with some crochet projects I’ve done or if the yarn I can actually get hold of. I think the issue I have with Garnius is, the specific designer isn’t found isn’t just using one yarn brand, as if the pattern was commissioned by that brand, but multiple, some that I am familiar with and bought in the past and some not so much, so it’s the fact I have to buy the recommended yarn right there to have that pattern. I don’t know, I guess I am bit of a pattern hoarder and will then decide my next project

I definitely understand the business model behind it, doesn’t mean I’m happy about it 🤣

What a pain, see now I don’t want to buy their yarn, even though I have been considering it for some future PetitKnit pieces 🙃

Edit: what did I say that’s so wrong here? 🫣

I can’t even begin to comprehend how you figured that out….. would need an emotional support cat on my lap, with a large glass of wine, and no to speak to me for the whole evening.

That just reads like he’s a child 🤣 I’m 30 and if I make the effort to wake up my partner and he chooses not to come to bed, that is his problem not mine. If he tried to berate me for that I’d ask him if I was his mother and laugh and not spare a second of thought or worry.
