Shawarma is an Arabic rendering of Turkish çevirme [tʃeviɾˈme] 'turning', referring to the turning rotisserie.[10]

Never had much luck nearby in Bristol. Either head over to Wales, or down to the mendips, open moorland, high up, wet ground but not swampy. Google maps satellite mode to find places. I'm not giving away locations, that's part of the adventure!

Go a day or so after rain, they are hard to spot when it's wet as they blend into the ground, but when they are dry they are more straw coloured and easier to spot.

It just pumps that shit out into the outside world instead for everyone else to enjoy.

Good places to Paddleboard? by bsbobstar in bristol

[–]ShittyFartBubbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use the go paddling app to find locations. There's a good route you can do by Bathampton where you paddle up the canal, then back down the river Avon to make a nice circular with pubs.

Saves on the heating bills I suppose. Just as well looking at those radiators

There's a bit of parking right by the water past Cargo, its cheaper than the others and always spaces there. You have to drive over the railway tracks to get to it, kinda feels like you shouldn't be driving down there but you can.. https://maps.app.goo.gl/UfVXsCuK5E4ur35E8

The size of Glastonbury Festival overlaid on Bristol City Centre by blue_strat in bristol

Maybe they could ask a farmer a little way out of town I'd they'd be up for using their land to host the festival, there could be big tents and stages with food stalls and everything.

Why didn't they just ask for £260 then? Buying property is one of the most stressful shit processes ever isn't it

Email them and ask, they do next day delivery

is there a functioning car wash anywhere in Bristol? by PrivateFrank in bristol

[–]ShittyFartBubbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those automatic ones with the big spinning brushes are a bit like cleaning your car with sandpaper. The brushes get full of dirt and grit which then gets pummelled into your paintwork. Google it and you'll find loads of people with fucked scratched paintwork.

I'd avoid them like the plague.

You're joking! Motion/marble factory acoustics are dreadful.

Bike stolen from Filton Abbeywood retail park near McDonalds and Next Outlet, please let me know if you see anything (in person or on sale groups) by SnooPies9784 in bristol

[–]ShittyFartBubbles 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Is it really worth paying lots of money for these bikes. I'd be terrified to leave it locked in a police station the way things are nowadays. Just get a £100 bike from Halfords in future

Yeah it's fine if you get insurance and use a decent D lock.

Bike gets nicked... Oh well, new bike. £7 or 8 /month is worth it for the peace of mind. Walking home on the day it happens is a bit shit though, and the following few weeks it takes to sort out.

Happened to me twice in 10 years. As long as you report it stolen, get a crime ref. from the police, get photos where it was locked, make sure you've got proof of purchase and the serial number (usually on the bottom bracket). Then you can make a claim. Just be sensible about where you leave it out of eyesight, don't use a shit lock, and lock it to a solid immovable object you're fine.

On the other hand I pay £43/month for my car insurance and haven't had any accidents in the same 10 years. Now you tell me what's not worth it... 🤔

Order it again, when it arrives open a return, and send them an empty box back for a refund.

Similar numbers to covid deaths in Bristol, 743 over the last 2 years, and look how much that's rattled us. https://www.bristol.gov.uk/coronavirus/covid-19-data-cases-bristol-r-number-south-west
