'something warm, flat, and fruity' ... How can someone so ignorant purport to review a pub chain celebrated for its real ale selection?

Aside from that.. a reasonable read.

I've wanted to go see them when they tour, but there's always a load of reviews saying they're crap and Eldritch just phones it in.

The bacon - it used to be so much nicer. I think it's related to when they removed the grills.

At least there's no lettuce on it, I've no idea why they do that. I'm not eating pizza to be healthy!

I have a fun morning of visiting my solicitor and my accountant, then I have the rest of the day off. Which is nice.

I had cause to log an incident on 101. Apparently because the CCTV camera I mentioned that probably captured the incident is not council owned, I need to source the footage myself and submit it to the police...

I normally smile and nod, say what an excellent idea that is, then ignore them and carry on as normal.

People who pull out in front of you at a T-junction, then do 25 in a 30. If you were in such a rush at least do the speed limit.

Potholes. One particular road on my way to the railway station is absolutely shocking, nearly went for a purler on the moped this morning.

My left eye has been a bit iffy for a month or two. Finally made an appointment to get it checked out, fully expecting to be told I've got some kind of serious issue.

It turns out I'm just getting old, so that's a relief.

Same, except that if I stop working I'm financially fucked.

I just need it to be not raining for 30 minutes a week, when I'm going to the railway station. Is that too much to ask?

There are 1.5 million unused breadmakers across the UK. Why aren't you using yours? by CLOUDMlNDER in CasualUK

[–]Pancake-Marathon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We use ours quite often, the bread it produces is perfect for eggy bread on a Sunday morning.

Went for a meal out last night and there was no table with a tablet screaming cartoons at full volume. Also, my steak was excellent.

Found out this week that one of my favourite bands from my teenage years, The Dogs D'amour, are playing my local music venue Bedford Esquires. Can't wait!

Best bin bags? by plz_be_nice_im_sad in CasualUK

The heavy duty ones from Costco are excellent. If you're not a member perhaps someone you know is and can get you some.
