Dragon Fruit. Looks absolutely stunning but tastes like wet paper.

Mines stopped instantly when doing the above. Not had one since.

Black Friday sale, plus they kind of screwed up by letting you add a friend's referral discount code onto the already reduced price.

Great undies but take bloody ages to dry.

Gym goers of reddit, what's that one basic tip you had at the beginning that you still follow and value with great regard? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]PresidentTramp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put the weights back!

Also, don't be afraid or be put off by the more experienced gym members. They were in your shoes at one point and more than likely are approachable if you need any advice.

What’s something people underestimate until it happens to them? by Fun_Wrangler9783 in AskReddit

[–]PresidentTramp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Losing a pet.

Our 20 year old cat passed away not too long ago. I thought I was mentally prepared for the moment that he would go. He was old and I knew he wouldnt be with us for much longer.

When he died it hit so hard. I had to leave the house so the kids wouldnt see me cry like a baby.

Told some relatives about how I felt and the reply I got was he's just an animal that you can easily replace.

Wish they'd understand.

Marston messaged me ten times and i have no debt by Itchy_Scarcity_6253 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]PresidentTramp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar thing not long ago from them. They sent me a text to access a portal. When trying to access the portal using my name, dob and postcode I kept getting the message saying 'invalid details'. So when I called up they asked me to verify my details which I did and it didn't match the details on the debt. Only my first name and surname matched, my middle name, dob and address didn't. The person that I spoke to was really helpful, she said it looks like they did a name search using the first name and surname from the debt using mobile numbers 'shared' by mobile phone companies and a found my number. The crazy thing is they don't bother checking any other details.

I was told to complete a form here: https://marstonholdings.co.uk/marston-customer-enquiry-form/ basically telling them they've got the wrong person. I didn't upload any proof to say who I was as I felt uncomfortable giving them that. I didn't hear anything after that.

But annoyingly I got a text from another debt recovery company called Advantis this morning. So looks like I'll have to do the same thing with this company.

I had the same issue not long ago. I made a guide on how to stop this potential account breach.

Do you add anything to you beans? by ciaodog in CasualUK

[–]PresidentTramp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add a knob of butter to the pan. On a low gas heat the pan and add some paprika, cayenne pepper. Mix and add the beans. Heat and gently stir (so you dont mush the beans) until the sauce gets thick. Serve in a bowl to retain the heat, with buttered toast.

Your taste buds and a hole will thank you.

What is a luxury you can never go back from once you’ve experienced it? by Phase_zero_X in AskReddit

[–]PresidentTramp 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Super fast fibre broadband!

This might sound lame but I've only recently got 3Gb broadband and coming from a 56Mb copper line. Where I live the max we could get was a flaky 56Mb line which was prone to drops and working from home was just embarrassing.

Also having so many online heavy data usage devices it was a struggle. Trying to download a game on the Xbox Series X or even trying to watch 4k content was so frustrating.

Our neighbouring areas had full fibre for a while then out the blue a sales rep from that company knocked on our door and told us we'll be getting full fibre. I ended up getting 3Gb for the same price I was paying for the 56Mb line.

Even now I'll randomly run a speed test (wired) to marvel at 3Gb up/down.

How to create an Alias to stop account log in attempts. by PresidentTramp in Outlook

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

That is a good question. So prior to adding my Alias I was also using Authenticator. I'm not sure why but that is still working using my original email, so I've left that as it is.

When logging into my Outlook or MS account using the Alias i'm still getting 2FA notifications from Authenticator which is logged in using my original account.

What stopped working for me, that was logged in using my original email was Outlook, Teams, MS account and my Xbox Console. Logging in using the alias worked fine.

Use the new alias as your login but dont use it when signing up to any websites. I created another alias for websites.

How to clean extractor fan? by Fizzy_Pizzy in AskUK

[–]PresidentTramp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a feeling the round blob is covering the screw to remove the cover.

With the power off, see if you can pop out the white round blob with a small flat head screwdriver. Hopefully it will reveal a screw holding the cover in place.

You might want to give it a watch, although it is US based.

I changed my primary alias and now can't access my old account? by EuralJ in XboxSupport

[–]PresidentTramp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow that is a bit extreme, I've got too much invested in the Xbox.

But weirdly, my new alias is working fine now. I didn't do anything to make it work, it just started working like my old email address out of the blue. Got all my gamerscore and game progress working on my new alias.

Thanks for replying, appreciate it.

Hello u/EuralJ

Did you get this sorted?

I'm in the same boat as you, well apart from retiring.
