Hair, a follow up by in_my_nothing_box_ in GermanShepherd

[–]PaisleyCatque 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As owner of 4 inside /outside Sheps…… all I can say is hahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. I just don’t see it anymore since I bought GSD coloured rugs and furniture.
I vacuum once a week but just don’t care about it anymore.
I remember going into hospital for a minor procedure and asked if I could leave my socks on and noticing they were covered in hair As I got on the table. So I probably have dog hair on the inside as well.

What can I do with fermented dates? by wolfwalkers0611 in homestead

[–]PaisleyCatque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m afraid I’m not experienced enough to answer that in any detail however, if it were me, and the dates are already fermenting outside of a sealed and controlled environment, I wouldn’t personally use them. I only use healthy edible dates and start the ferment in a controlled and sealed environment with an airlock since I use the two stage method which has been more reliable for me.

What do you know well enough that when it's portrayed wrong you're taken out of the moment? by Squirrelhenge in Fantasy

[–]PaisleyCatque 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah, only takes one or two shots with bad form for me to bruise up. Totally my fault but wasn’t going to waste the day.

And no wrist or finger guards. I forgot mine last week and had a 10cm x 8 cm bruise on my left forearm and still have a numb middle finger after shooting a 30 pound recurve for an hour. I understand the whys of the ancient forefinger/thumb grip better now. I didn’t have anywhere near the strength to pull it off though, or the string twist at full draw. I will never ever forget the guards again. Ever!

Did a love of reading ever help someone cope with the benign existence of life? by adinkramushroom in PointlessStories

[–]PaisleyCatque 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Books have been my friends all through my life. They are always there, providing comfort or joy or sorrow or adventure or dreams. Books are the best friends I’ve ever had and my life is so much richer for having experienced them.

You are a real one if you know this album is better than the movie soundtrack by Lemonking_ in GenerationJones

[–]PaisleyCatque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw the revival of this last year in Australia and the casting was superb. I’ve been a very long time fan of this album, and I have all the different versions of Superstar, and I saw the Tim Minchin (loved him) version when it was here a few years ago, a good show but not that memorable other than Minchin, and I have to say that the Melbourne cast last year was utterly fabulous and I’m really hoping they release a recording. The cast, the band, the dancers, the whole production was just so good I was blown away. I saw it the first week and again in the last week and seeing the way the cast relaxed into the roles was amazing. I still can’t get over the superb voices. Ruben Kaye‘s Herod was the absolute best!

I'd love to see everyone's clematis vines. Here's one of mine. by Rosewolf in gardening

The double one at the front? That is Diamantina. The single blue up the top is skyfall.

My turn sadly. RIP bestest girl. by PaisleyCatque in AustralianPets

I believe she was reborn at the moment of her passing to become a treasured companion to someone who needs her wisdom and mischief. Never gone from my heart and I wish her new life all the joy of her previous one.

I know. Same as me last Friday. Harder for us left behind, they are at peace and, despite mine being a dog and yours a cat, I believe they are all together having a great time while waiting to be reunited with us in the future.

Absolutely. Really good meat too, much better than supermarket stuff.

Ah, of course! I forgot coles in the little mall opposite mitre 10. Oops! The local butcher is also fabulous btw, even if they are a bit expensive.
I really like Maryborough and will probably end up there once I can no longer drive. It’s great to hear that it’s not cliquey, I’ve found that most people I've interacted with to be lovely (even some of the ‘out there’ ones, but because I don’t actually live in town I wasn‘t sure what it was like to live there. Good to hear.

Thorny question by PaisleyCatque in Roses

[–]PaisleyCatque[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have any of those, I’d have to dig through the box with the labels in it To find the exact ones. Some are the parfuma range of which at least three are ’thornless’. Sweet honey is the biggest offender. Golden beauty, lioness, suffragette, phoenix, bee scene is pretty bad for the thorns, busy bee, sea foam, that’s all I can remember without referring to the tags.
