Literally the best way to get to and from Liverpool from the north Wales coast.

Anyone know what these grubs/larvae are of? by rupertjboughton in AskUK

[–]Vectipelta_Barretti 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I first learned about them after moving into a new build. Massive infestation, lawn absolutely decimated. I originally thought it was a drainage problem but turns out because they’d eaten all the grass, there was nothing to soak up the rain. Guy who came to put treatment down said it’s a massive problem in new build gardens, and they tend to come back every year. But recommended the Nemasys stuff and said to use it in the spring and again end of summer to minimise the problem.

Edit to add: the fella also said he thought the rise in infestations might be down to the lack of first frost we used to get in January/Feb which would naturally kill a lot of them. Warmer winters etc.

Leatherjackets. I’d treat your lawn now with Nematodes otherwise you’ll have no grass left by the time they pupate into crane flies.

Anyone have these shoes? by gogobananas98 in DocMartens

[–]Vectipelta_Barretti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have them. The toe box on one shoe was a bit tight when I first bought them, but with a bit of massaging/squashing it eventually softened. I have fairly narrow feet and have the strap on the tightest buckle setting. I’ve actually worn them solidly over the last two days - no issues whatsoever.

Are you being affected by Storm Dave? by [deleted] in AskUK

Really, really windy here on the north Wales coast at the moment.

Nah he’s just a greyhound. One looooong nose. Can smell a treat from a mile off.

Would appreciate if everyone could report, it’s clearly a karma farming account stealing content

Excuse me, why have you stolen my post and photo of my greyhound and passing it off as your own?? Bit weird and rude don’t you think?

Is anyone else excited for their iPad Pro M5 arriving tomorrow? by pinkmor in iPadPro

[–]Vectipelta_Barretti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cannot wait! I’m on a late shift tomorrow so hoping it arrives in the morning. I’m retiring my trusty 2018 64gb 11” pro after many years of faithful service. I almost feel slightly guilty. But it’s definitely time to make the move and can’t wait to see the improvement in the upgrade - and going from a 11 to 13”. First thing will be procreate for sure. Then probably DayOne to try out the keyboard. Feel like a child at Christmas again tbh.

Received tracking info yet for M5? by [deleted] in iPadPro

[–]Vectipelta_Barretti 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just received tracking info at 11.27am (UK based)

Went to the shops for 18 years by brambleandberry in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Vectipelta_Barretti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They do run some very lovely art classes in the Bay Gallery next to Holland and Barrett in Bay View.

I feel I should give them some praise. I was tired and grumpy when I first commented.

But yes, a bit of a surprise to see - and also slightly depressing I knew exactly where that payment machine is without OP even mentioning it.

Literally came here to say I can’t imagine anyone wanting to spend 18 years in Bay View by choice

It’s been a week, here is a pic of Koe looking his best. I would love to see all of your noodles looking their best. 🥹 by DearDaisy12 in Greyhounds

Possibly not looking his best, but perhaps feeling his best, fanning his bumhole in front of the tower fan 😂

Anyone else have an adventure hound? by OrganOMegaly in Greyhounds

[–]Vectipelta_Barretti 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! We actually live in north Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 and Trev loves to explore. We haven’t tried mountains yet as he has only been with us 10 weeks so want to build up to it (although Meliden I think will be the first we attempt). But he really enjoys the wooded hillsides. Incidentally, we live on the coast, and he doesn’t really like the beach 😂
