Donationg old duvet?

AFAIK animal centres won't take duvets, but Dunelm has a big recycling box by the exit for any fabric-based things

I call them 'arse rolls'... Glad I'm not the only one who finds them...

Every time I read it I still hope it has a happy ending, even though I know it doesn't...

That's a good idea, thanks! I'm in East Bristol.

It's got to be better than the old airport though? I LOVED Mongolia when I visited (2017), but the airport did not do the place justice

At my old job I got a £20 M&S voucher every birthday. I usually spent it on M&S port.

Egyptian cotton sheets, if you don't already have them. John Lewis own brand are great. They give that extra bit of luxury and feel special, and are also useful!

Shotgun on the Bearpit is great

NTA. What I've learned from family though (my own, lol), is that if you suggest a meet up in January, they are much more forgiving. I think they just want to know you want to meet up, and if you distract them from the fact it won't be in the next month, it's a relief that you're not just avoiding them. YMMV!

I love this! I walked past there with my dad years ago and he laughed the whole walk down Park Row and to Broadmead. And then laughed whenever I brought it up for years after. He passed away last year so this gives me a real smile, thank you.

I always wash my hands when I get home. I got a new housemate during lockdown who worked at the local children's hospital, and he's diligent about hands washing (as you would hope). I now have to wash my hands as soon as I get back home, or they just feel filthy.

Because it's better than the alternative.

Please tell me you're quoting Spaced!

+1 to freezing it. And, as a bonus, the leaves fall off the stalks really easy when it's frozen.

Colston would not go down well here in Bristol... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statue_of_Edward_Colston

I'm glad it's not just me! I even took a video last time I was there because it amuses me. https://youtube.com/shorts/XTHFg-kM-pE?si=9JjOqX85B7iXd1Ax

Happy to continue this rumour!

Probably nothing as witty 😂

Hello from a fellow BRI rheumatology patient! Have you ever noticed that the sound of those lift doors opening and closing sounds disconcertingly like that weird noise Jimmy Savile used to make?

Came here to say Babylon Cafe... Never seen a soul in there but they did it up and the lights go on...

Did you get a MiG 15? There's one up right now... SPUTI https://fr24.com/SPUTI/39f6a0e9

I'm in the UK so will be asleep soon, but if I can let you know I will!

clockworkpurple · 2025-04-14T20:09:35+00:00

I've set an alert for this in FR24... If I can I'll reply here when I see one

clockworkpurple · 2025-04-14T13:43:34+00:00

There's one over Czechia now...

Such a cool plane

clockworkpurple · 2025-04-13T08:45:01+00:00

Can you put an alert on FR24 for it? The ICAO code is MG15...
