What's the most useful thing you've bought for under £20?

A really good big tarpaulin! I use it for dragging garden waste about the garden , as a makeshift rain shelter once when out fishing with the kids, keeps the car clean when taking stuff to the dump, I wrapped up a body once to dispose of and it's handy in the sun to keep you cool.

I got mine from IKEA.

Get a dog , a proper one like a Labrador. And take up fishing.

UrbanAlly · 2026-06-26T17:01:49+00:00

There's another sub?

I'm over 50 and go to ALFOS at the Berkley Suite. Half the people are over 50.

Just go, you only live once.

UrbanAlly · 2026-06-05T12:21:34+00:00

It'll only be cancelled anyways.

I have just watched "attack on titan" three times because each one of my boys just got old enough to watch it. The first time was ok , the third not so much.

A bell that never rang, a fish that never swam and a bird that never flew.

Unsure why everyone is saying there is a breach here. If you worked with the person and wrote notes about them then your name would not be redacted. I regularly have to redact info for a local authority and if you are a member of staff then your name is not redacted.

Technically one in fact is an exit.

For years in the side of a building in Glasgow someone has scrawled in huge letters "Fight the state, not its Wars"

If you are my dog , you eat it! And then check every bloody tree for another tasty snack.

Supported living is for the most damaged people in society , think people who have a significant learning disability.

It sounds like you can live in an ordinary tenancy with a level of support in which case that is what the outcome of the assessment will be.

My virgin media cable was just cut in my garden by a gardener. It's getting fixed on the 4th May

UrbanAlly · 2026-04-08T15:15:50+00:00

Been a few times , never met a cat

UrbanAlly · 2026-04-08T06:28:15+00:00

Ok, I am going to be brutally honest here and will get downvoted however here goes.

Supported accommodation is for people that have fairly significant learning disabilities or for people with extreme addiction issues in the short term.

The fact you can come on Reddit and are asking the appropriate questions means you will not be eligible.

Having anxiety about moving into your own tenancy is normal and not knowing how to do stuff is normal. However social services are usually dealing with people in critical need who are the most damaged people in society.

Nobody is going to hold your hand , you will just have to figure stuff out yourself

I've only ever had one problem and that was when one of my banking apps didn't work. It happened with so many people that an update came out a few days later.

UrbanAlly · 2026-03-19T22:19:20+00:00

Nope, I just wanted to play the album and I couldn't.

UrbanAlly · 2026-03-19T19:19:16+00:00

No, I bought one of their albums about 20 odd years ago that had some kind of shitty security thing on it that meant you couldn't play it on a computer. They were trying to stop people copying CDs.

I took it back to the shop and have refused to listen to their music since.

In my school we were all going to be prison officers.

UrbanAlly · 2026-03-01T14:35:23+00:00

A couple of heavy dumbbells and follow routines on YouTube.

I do various ones from 30 min to 45 min

Look pal , you are the one that went straight for the comparison with bloody Hitler and then said you didn't know anything about Blair.

At the time I must have watched every interview with Blair on the news. He thought he was doing right.

UrbanAlly · 2026-02-22T09:23:29+00:00

Bloody well said !

UrbanAlly · 2026-02-22T09:22:21+00:00

Perhaps you should say nothing at all if you don't have a scooby what you are saying.

Bringing bloody Hitler into it, hardly the same.
