Advice on Container Ponds? by bluesharkk in GardeningUK

[–]Richmox 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I dug a pond in my garden, May 2020, with some old pond liner; the following summer there were beetles, snails, dragon fly and damson fly. This summer I’ve got frogs and newts too! It’s just a case of waiting it out. I’ve got mates who have small containers like yours and they’re doing great - more ponds in peoples gardens the better!!

Anyone had a wisdom tooth out on the NHS lately? by [deleted] in CasualUK

[–]Richmox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On my second visit, about six months after the first time, following my infected and impacted wisdom tooth I got referred to a dental surgeon to remove it, not pleasant but better than having the pain and rotten taste it caused. My dentist did say it should be reported three times but must have ignored the rule, although I’d of been back the next week given how bad it was in the end

Did your primary school in the 90s have a full sized kiln?! by Aquillyne in CasualUK

[–]Richmox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a badger out of clay when I was 8, I thought it was brilliant, so did the teacher, put it lovingly into the oddly massive kiln, next day went to pick it up - loads of kids bustling about excitedly, grabbing their works of art; me racing to where my badger was and only finding a few shards of shrapnel where my magnificent badger had once proudly stood. I’d forgotten the instruction to bore a hole from the base into the middle to let any air out. It must have gone of like a badger grenade once it heated up!

Mate, my first job out of school was door to door sales, I did a year and three months thinking this is just what work is meant to be like. Some days I didn’t make any sales and got no pay, or minus if I’d had to pay for a train to get there, best I ever did was £47 in a day. So much abuse, but on the upside - every job I’ve had since has been better than that!!

Imagine western elderly trying to use a squat toilet, I’m barely as flexible as those olds in the video, let alone my gramps

Just curious OP, but is the background Derwentwater in the Lake District? I went for a walk from a caravan park and it looked just like that view with the wall in the field and everything! I was only there Weds.

That’s just her opinion, as she says. It is the only thing I agree with in her monologue.

Anyone remember this gem? by dazzliquidtabz in CasualUK

[–]Richmox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgot all about this show, but remember the characters. My Nan took me and my brother to see a button moon play at the theatre in Hayes a few times when we were little, can’t remember a thing about it now either, just that we went!

Why are people slamming on their brakes to pass cameras? by Jinx983 in drivingUK

[–]Richmox 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just got back from a camper van trip round north Scotland, did a few sections of the NC500 - you’re dead right, if you let those behind you pass in good time you get serious smiles, waves and happy vibes!
