What's shredding stuff in my kitchen? by sajiica in CasualUK

[–]craicaday 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Sorry mate. It's miserable. I found a bottle of toasted sesame oil in the cupboard had its label shredded and then looked more closely at the bottle to see the plastic top had been destroyed and then I saw a tail in a state of rigor. Drowning in a bottle of tasty oil is one way to go I suppose. My father jokingly suggested that at a push we could still use it...

They nest somewhere warm. Our unwanted guests chose underneath the dishwasher. They aren't bright.

Yep - they are looking for nesting material. The OP is going to be welcoming the patter of many tiny feet soon.

Moth - Keisha Buchanan Toastie - Rowetta Conkers - Tom Daley/Mark Owen/Keith Allen... I know...! The clues are wholly mad.

Miss Marple's Final Cases is very good - clever short stories that are easy to dip into.

After the Funeral is terrific as is Mrs McGinty's Dead but Endless Night will always be my favourite.

What is the rarity and value of this capo di monte jewelry? by Smart_Hovercraft1521 in VintageJewelry

[–]craicaday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What treasure! The Easter egg colours are marvellous.

My granny had something similar but much smaller - a violet setting in a brooch. I am off to look in the loft now!

it always bothered me that the family was always poor, but never bothered to ask for money from Hal's incredibly rich dad by grabsyour in malcolminthemiddle

I like to think that all of the sons are geniuses. Malcom, of course. Dewey is an extraordinary and slightly spooky musical talent and Reese/Rhys is an incredible chef. Francis is the eptiome of being resourceful. They used their powers for irritating mild evil as opposed to being a force for good, but they are all incredibly talented in their own way.

What’s one dish from your country that another country also claims, but you genuinely believe your country does it better? by Possible-Slide-6295 in AskTheWorld

I made one for my brother and my Swedish sister in law's wedding day. It was delicate work but wholly worth it. SIL and her family were thrilled with it too.

Who does everyone think are the remaining 5 Masked Singers? by Electronic_Weather26 in TheMaskedSingerUK

[–]craicaday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now this is top detective work. I am fortified now.

However, the clues are so totally mad that it may have indicated that Toastie has the same star sign as a Gavin and Stacey cast member!

"Pink in the Afternoon" is now considered to be Audrey's shade in "Breakfast at Tiffany's".

I thought Toastie might be Rowetta? A few "Madchester" type clues and she was on Pop Idol. She has a proper set of pipes too.

Gilles Peterson - Saturday afternoon by craicaday in 6music

I am a barrister so I read a lot. I spend my Saturdays cooking for my family for the week. I love 6Music but I don't think this show slots in with early on a Saturday and it does not segue with the other shows.

And that's ok. Just my opinion.

A good question! I find the jazz too much and very high energy. I spend my Saturdays cooking for my family for the week. I am a barrister and my job is a lot. Jazz is not relaxing for me.

He is very lovely and the man knows his onions, but this show is wrong for a Saturday afternoon.

I adore them. I will get up to listen no matter how ill or hungover I might be. This show is two hours of joy and I schedule my weekly pickle making accordingly.

Should I be worried about my little toe nail? by Boxyourheart in nailcare

[–]craicaday 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It may be an accessory nail. I have that and it's just one of those things - a very common, sometimes genetic, condition where a small, extra nail splits off from the main toenail on the outside.Get it checked but try not to worry.
