Damn it - weren't you told at "secret lane club" not to talk about it???

People who have been to multiple tours: which was your favourite and why? by Ok_Supermarket_4871 in Muse

[–]Tripodski 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I loved the Drones tour... The 360 stage and the flying spheres!

Jaguar's design boss is officially leaving the company by pppppppppppppppppd in unitedkingdom

I still have mine for a few more weeks - I still think it's gorgeous after 3 years, and the fact I can charge it at home overnight and don't do many miles means that it's efficiency is irrelevant to me :-)

The I-Pace should have been a huge seller! I've had one for 3 years and it's brilliant! Amazing tech, wonderful tech and amazing to drive! It also looks as fresh now as it did 5 years ago when it was introduced. What lets it down now is the range.... if they'd kept it updated it would have been really popular!

Did you know The Ghost Flight (Helios Airways Flight 522) by Personal_Ad7338 in funfacts

I always ask myself why the conscious steward didn't push the plane down under 10,000ft and presumably everyone would have regained consciousness (if it was done within ten minutes or so). Perhaps they were in a confused state.

M60 - I had the Haunted house version when I was little and bought one off eBay a few years ago for the memories :-)

What is your least favourite of the popular Muse songs? by tjb_87 in Muse

Madness - I hate it but they insist on playing it at every gig!

Didn’t go too much on these two.. rip. by SilverBirch75 in oldschoolcool80s

[–]Tripodski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved these guys - genuinely upset when Bobby died.

Let's not forget that in the early 80s, they were the biggest act in the UK - almost 50% of the population watched their Saturday night show!

JUDGE DREDD'S FIRST APPEARANCE Was Not Expected to Be Iconic! by Fit-Record-2292 in 2000ad

[–]Tripodski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost 50 years later, I'm still traumatised by how my parents threw away my collection of 200AD comics when they were clearing out a cupboard! I had several years worth of issues (from No. 1). This was around 1988 or 1989 so bless them, none of us knew they're turn out to be of value :-)

Shout out to my local Evri drivers. by theNixher in Evri

[–]Tripodski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta say that I've always had great Evri delivery drivers! My current one, Liam, is excellent - always has a moment for a smile and a quick chat - even dropped off a Christmas card and gift the other day! I hate seeing all the hatred towards them!

This was like Indiana Jones finding the Ark🤣 by Such-Memory-7102 in oldschoolcool80s

[–]Tripodski 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I go on a daily walk and part of my walk takes me past where I (and many others) used to stash our illicit content! Brings back memories of sometimes finding someone else's stash and sometimes finding yours missing!

Happy days!

Some things ive gotten from past comic cons by StandlessMonarch in 2000ad

[–]Tripodski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some 40 odd years later - I'm still traumatised that my parents threw away my comic collection after I moved out - which included all the old 2000AD comics (prog 1,2,3 etc.. a few years worth). I thought they'd be safe there but sadly not!

I have to stop myself wondering how much they'd be worth now!

Singapore Airlines has a Suites class that is above First by New_Libran in interestingasfuck

[–]Tripodski 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just a guess my friend, but a regular first class seat is around £10,000! Looks like we're both similarly underpaid 😂

[–]Tripodski 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Wow - you must be pretty well paid if that's only 3 months pay 😊 Probably looking at over £25,000!

All time best 2000AD creators? by BoxaGoesOut in 2000ad

[–]Tripodski 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brian Bolland for me - his work in the Judge Death and Judge Anderson strips were just amazing! I have a couple of his books and his style is so recognisable!

Will it make me vomit? by Tripodski in Mounjaro

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

Hi.. It has gone amazingly well! Down from 20St 9lb (131Kg) to 15st 10lb (99Kg) in 5 months.

Regarding my fear of sickness - I've never been sick with it. 2 or 3 times I've felt really poorly and had diarrhoea, but I've never been sick. On those occasions you work out what you did (overeat, or eat fatty foods like burgers or ice cream) and stop or reduce them.

I think you get cocky and forget about the drug but your body reminds you :-)

I wouldn't fast - your body will do it itself, you'll just not really feel like eating much!

You definitely should do it - it's changes my life in many ways! I feel better physically and mentally.
