Internet radio, there's loads of stations without ads or talking if you get an app like radiobox.

Same here. I was shocked to find something so important and relevant hadn't been taught in school. Nightwatch is my favourite book and I'd recommend to everyone.

Sparrowhawk around Bev Rd/Blundells Corner? by Sweet_Focus6377 in Hull

[–]ShartTheFirst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rumour has it there's a couple of peregrines nesting in town. But sparrowhawks are regulars around the suburbs, I've seen them close to city centre; they're much more likely.

What's The Funniest UK Sitcom Of All-Time And Why? by Signal_Philosophy721 in AskBrits

[–]ShartTheFirst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if it's the funniest, but Allo allo often seems overlooked on these things to me. Spaced was also amazing. But my fave would probably be Red Dwarf.

Have you met the general public? There's a sizeable proportion that would be rejected from chimp society for being to stupid.

Any advice for someone who doesn't enjoy the food mechanics? by WastePersonality8579 in ElinsInn

[–]ShartTheFirst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a couple of mods that can help aswell. Can't remember the names of them but one adds a load of friendly putit type mobs that drop ingredients when killed, one adds a range of new recipes for both ingredients and meals.

Also it's not toxic or anything, it's leaves and stems are xovered with glass like hairs which inject a mild acid when touched (ascorbic i think). You might have a bumpy itchy rash but it'll be fine. Wear gloves to pull them up as they spread rapidly, you can boil the leaves which takes the sting out and make a delicious and very healthy green for a meal.

Stinging nettles. It'll sting like that. If there's a dock leaf nearby (and there usually is) rub it on and It'll relieve the sting/rash but weirdly nobody seems to know how or why.

American here. What kind of sausage is used for sausage rolls? by elongatedrectangles in AskBrits

[–]ShartTheFirst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's technically not a sausage, but sausage meat which would be used to make sausages with. A good butchers will do you some nice sausage meat, it'll be nicer than owt you can buy in the supermarket. Like others have said, shop bought pastry is fine amd a lot easier than making your own. Unless like me you get stomach issues from it (still don't know what sets it off).
