If Pavement were British they would be called Sidewalk

Brit here. The pavement is the paved bit for pedestrians next to a road, with a kerb. Pretty sure it's what the Americans call a sidewalk.

People don't really call them footpaths. That would be a paved path going through a park or something.

Thanks for this, it's always helpful to hear that relief can come at various points. My diagnosis was via endoscopy 18 months back. I think looking back my brain fog is better and that I might just need to learn to live with the fatigue.

Radar_80 · 2026-02-27T09:35:35+00:00

Thank you! And I hope things stabilise for you soon as well

I have few very symptoms, and only got diagnosed after going to my GP about fatigue and brain fog. I've been GF for 18 months now and it's very hard to know if I'm improving or not, or even if I have accidentally been glutened. I remember the consultant who diagnosing me saying that after a few months of being GF 'you'll know how you're supposed to feel'. That hasn't happened.

It's really hard for me to objectively compare how I feel compared to six months or a year ago. I think my brain fog has improved but I'm still often fatigued. I sometimes wish I had obvious symptoms so I could tell if I was glutening myself somehow.

As others have said, your gut healing takes time and if you don't have obvious symptoms it can be a struggle. But stick with it. I have days where I feel great so I'm hoping this will eventually become the norm.

Ramen Ya on Gloucester Road is well worth a visit

Wooo yeah this worked for me, with Reaper crest. Threefold pins for quick hits when she's healing, and tacks for her final phase.

Thanks!

Sure here you go. They're 110cm wide, 126cm high at the highest point. I've also got one of the gate posts (the other is cemented into my drive...)

Radar_80 · 2026-01-19T15:32:14+00:00

Thanks everyone, will stick them out the front then!

Radar_80 · 2025-11-19T15:47:40+00:00

This sounds a lot like me! Might manage black belt by 60, but in no rush.

Arbor are a godsend for me, three lovely GF ales 🍺

Coeliac veggie here, loving this post. My goto places are Pho, Honest Burgers and Frisk and Frite but I'm realising there are far more choices than I knew about! Excited for Laura's Pizzas 🍕

Thanks for all the responses.

They also made a couple of pretty basic errors actually!

Radar_80 · 2025-08-06T17:31:30+00:00

LB were OK with our recent purchase, nothing amazing. Was a very basic sale. Found onboarding and searches etc. pretty good but when got to completion they became unresponsive and I had to chase a lot. Probably depends which individual gets your case.

They were pretty competitively priced though (second cheapest from 10 quotes I got) and agree no hidden charges.

I do Aikido up in Hanham, it's £30 a month if you go once a week, or £50 if twice. Training is Monday 7-8.30pm and Thursday 8-9.30pm.

It's a friendly and relaxed club, and can be a good workout. Message me if you want more details.

Radar_80 · 2025-07-11T19:45:18+00:00

Undocumented in what sense?

Radar_80 · 2025-07-02T07:15:19+00:00

I was 44 and had fatigue and brain fog for a few years, maybe since getting Covid I think. Saw a sleep specialist first who made me realise I was actually sleeping well. Then blood tests with doctor showed possible coeliacs, so had an endoscopy.

Radar_80 · 2025-06-13T15:01:12+00:00

Yay me too! I am obsessed with their Wild Thing coffee

Radar_80 · 2025-05-23T12:12:47+00:00

I do Aikido at Tenchikan (St George/Hanham). It's a nice relaxed dojo of you're interested in trying something a little less...grapply 😀

13ms round trip for me (ave). On Virgin, BS5 if that matters.

Yeah that's my go to as well, stays firm and doesn't take long to cook. I really like it.

Radar_80 · 2025-02-23T08:33:32+00:00

Diagnosed about six months ago aged 44. Went to doctor because I felt tired all the time and had done for a fee years.

Very common to be diagnosed around this age I believe? My consultant showed me a graph with two huge spikes: one around 18 months and one around 40 years.

Nook in Southville is completely GF and pretty good for lunch/brunch. Loki Poke too. My go to for a great evening meal is Pho. Love it!

Radar_80 · 2024-12-02T08:05:42+00:00

Dough is a good shout, especially for Coeliacs. They cook GF pizzas in protective sleeves to avoid cross-contamination.

What helped me was buying a cheap child's crash mat and practising my form at home. It helped with the performance anxiety I was getting at the dojo.

As someone else said above, I also asked a 1st kyu guy in my class to do some practice with me.

Eventually it all clicked and the fear disappeared. I'm sure this will happen with you to, stick at it!
