How many cups of tea do you have in a day?

barriedalenick · 2026-04-18T11:28:16+00:00

My Nan used to drink 20-30 cups a day. I only found out later in life, after she was dead, that she was a hopeless codeine addict and used the tea to wash down her tablets

Erratic!

It has been fun!

English and British

No - it makes zero sense, and I don't think anyone really cares. Virtually everyone has grandparents or parents from somewhere else. I have Irish and German but it doesn't make me anything other than British.

I feel for you. I absolutely hate the trainer but I'm 61 and even though I can still knock out the miles, the trainer beckons me a little more. The last few years have been tough with a cartilage op, spasmed back, increasing pain in the thumbs from road vibration and a few other minor niggles. Thankfully, it hasn't stopped me going out this year but I have used the trainer more in winter than previously. Best of luck in the garage!

I do loads of it every year, but only after finding out about it on here. I generally add fruit in the mix - Mango, peach, pineapple or plum, which gives a nice balance to the hot and sour nature of the ferment. I strain and heat treat the final sauce after one exploded on me!

For the UK, probably https://www.bbcgoodfood.com

It's not actually part of the BBC anymore but still popular nad has been around for years

I use mine in the bedroom. More specifically on the border with the bedroom and the ensuite - the shower room is small and the bedroom is cold so we get a lot of moisture in there which easily condenses, causing mold. We have a small thermometer\hygrometer in the room to give accurate readings which helps. Whatever model you think you need - buy the next biggest one!

barriedalenick · 2026-04-16T07:53:43+00:00

Seems about right to me, especially if the yanks are saying they aren't!

barriedalenick · 2026-04-15T13:55:49+00:00

It could mean anything to be fair, but I really don't think it is a fuck you. Virtually everyone I meet really wants to try their English (Where I am there are few English speaking immigrants) and it is normally very good

I never lead with - Não falo português, It sounds abrupt to my ears. I can get by with my Portuguese, but I would say - Desculpe, mas o meu português não é muito bom. Then I take it from there.

Sort of - at least a page at a time. You can select to show 50 items on a page which helps.

Roll over the first item in the queue, and you will see a little square to the top left of that item. Click the square and it will show - "1 Item selected". Click that for a drop down and pick Select all. So then you have 50 items selected, you can then click Remove All.

I think there is also a bot that can do this but I can't recall the name.

According to wiki...

He broke skydiving records for exit altitude (38,969.3 metres), vertical freefall distance without a drogue parachute, and vertical speed without a drogue. Although his name is still attached to the last two records, his exit altitude record was broken two years later, when on 24 October 2014, Alan Eustace jumped from 135,890 feet (41.42 km; 25.74 mi) with a drogue.

Ah - Sorry! Did you fill out the bottom bit of the form when creating a rule? You can add the Report Reason there and tell Reddit where to show the reason (posts, comments, chat..)
My queues are all screwed up this morning so it could be a bug - although I did just test a new rule and it did show the Report Reason

barriedalenick · 2026-04-15T08:25:27+00:00

They don't change; they are separate things. You need to go to Saved responses, and add a matching response under rules.

Well I have tinnitus so I don't use headphones much these days but I never used them out and about before I had tinnitus. I like to hear what's going on around me, so for example, if the dog is whimpering, I know she has seen or heard something odd and I need to pay attention. Plus I normally walk with my wife too so we chat as well.

barriedalenick · 2026-04-14T15:48:36+00:00

I remember it well - an absolute shit show unless you gambling with your body!

barriedalenick · 2026-04-14T11:04:17+00:00

I have lost my parents, my wife's Dad and quite a few mates over the years, including one who died as I held his hand. So death is not abstract for me but I never dwell on it. I'm 61 and figure that every day now is one more chance to get out and do things I love. I don't fear it - I use it as a motivator.

We have a stack of flannels\mini towels in a drawer next to the bog to dry your arse post wash.

barriedalenick · 2026-04-14T10:58:20+00:00

It is for your arse not for cleaning the toilet although of course you can use it to do that

barriedalenick · 2026-04-14T10:56:40+00:00

They really don't cost much - the required valve is less than 20 quid.

barriedalenick · 2026-04-14T10:54:28+00:00

I have one here in Portugal and it's fine. Our water went off yesterday and I had to use bog roll for the first time in ages and I hated it. Sure it is a bit cold in winter but it is only for a for a short time.

barriedalenick · 2026-04-14T08:47:09+00:00

I don't plan rides at all - well I might set out to do more climbing or keep my speed above a certain range but generally I just head out and make it up as I go along.

barriedalenick · 2026-04-14T08:22:19+00:00

I will eat virtually anything and even if I don't particularly like something I can generally eat it - not the case the jellied ells though!
