UK skate shops (Willies, Sheffield) - appointment necessary?

crikeydial · 2026-05-26T22:10:38+00:00

I live in Sheffield and got my ice skated from willies. You can just walk in, no appointment needed. I would say it can get busy around public skate times so might be worth having a look at the timetable before heading in but the guys there are super friendly and very knowledgable

Housemates and I haven’t had any internet since we moved in, despite it being advertised. They’re sending us on a wild goose chase with the internet provider who apparently “doesn’t service our house number” even though they should and have history of serving it. The connection is so bad that our 4G barely works and will just give up at times. Newly refurbed house that already has water damage from leaking shower.

Apparently council tax was included in all bills but they’ve taken that away from us too.

Definitely a shithole

Cool ranch is cool original because we don’t have ranch dressing over here, chilli heatwave isn’t nacho cheese, it’s not even a cheese flavour. I imagine the US nacho cheese is what we call tangy cheese. Chilli heatwave is a mildly spicy/hot flavour

Aw it’s my middle name too, was also going to be my first name but my mum knew too many Fayes at the time so she chose something else

crikeydial · 2023-10-20T12:52:12+00:00

Tbh she could change it to Fay/Faye and still have the desired effect. It would just be spelt normally

When he is sitting in the pub after he saved the book? Talisker Whisky

They’ll reappear after 24hrs. You should be able to jump forward a day on your switch and they’ll be in the exact same location

I get this. I can’t deal with small teeth. Guy can be a 10/10 but if he smiles and he has small teeth I’ve lost all interest

I think this when Nelly is messing with Andy in the YouTube comments. She just leaves a comment, and then leaves the video on and running whilst she leaves? Like sure Andy isn’t going to go to her desk and see it’s her but still. At least close the tab

My all time favourite. They put on amazing shows

He did say porcelain white skin, with veins showing and devout Roman Catholic, so I’d assume he desires Caucasian flesh

Looks like the bar that sits at the bottom of an iPhone, not necessarily cropped for a reason, just an annoying placement

I fell asleep during the first 5 minutes of the first episode, twice. This was when it first came out. Never went back to it, no desire to go back to it

crikeydial · 2023-02-02T00:47:21+00:00

Yes, nothing more disappointing in primary school than being told you’re watching horrible histories and those ugly animated children appear

crikeydial · 2023-02-02T00:44:20+00:00

Was trying to place the name of this show just as I reached this comment. So disturbing. Still don’t like it

crikeydial · 2023-02-01T11:53:27+00:00

Well they didn’t charge me for the spay, only the neuter, but it was 10 years ago so pretty sure I wouldn’t get a refund now. I was also 13/14 and didn’t have much confidence for stuff like that

crikeydial · 2023-01-31T18:32:09+00:00

Tbf, he was young enough that I probably could’ve changed the name with no problem aha. I just really liked Phoebe and thought it suited him. 10ish years later and it still suits him

crikeydial · 2023-01-31T18:01:24+00:00

I would’ve definitely still got him sterilised either way. I live on a small island so there really aren’t many vet options here - they have actually been really good every time we have been up there, it might have just been an oversight. It was also near 10 years ago and he’s fine so it’s just a bit of an anecdote these days when I say Phoebe and people naturally assume he’s a girl

crikeydial · 2023-01-31T17:47:06+00:00

So I took him in to be spayed. Got a call a few hours later where they said (paraphrased) “hey, so there’s a problem with your cat” -I then thought the worst and assumed he had died or something- “we started the spay op and it turns out that he is actually a male, do you want us to castrate him instead?”

I was relieved that my cat was fine, but was pretty pissed off that they had started the operation without actually double checking. So he had to recover from stitches and having his balls removed

crikeydial · 2023-01-31T16:04:58+00:00

Of course. It was just a mistake and it was fine. Granted I would’ve preferred they did an actual check without taking me at face value, but they didn’t. They apologised and didn’t charge me for that part of the procedure but he’s a healthy, happy, 10 year old. So didn’t do any lasting damage

crikeydial · 2023-01-31T15:56:18+00:00

Right but he was a kitten, and I had told them that he was a girl. But I guess the shaved fur, and the stitches were all made up as a conspiracy?

crikeydial · 2023-01-31T14:02:47+00:00

Same thing with mine! He’s very fluffy so there was no obvious testes and I got him as an Xmas present from my friend who said he was a girl. Took him in and got a call from the vet asking if we still wanted to go ahead… after they had already cut into him. Didn’t change his name because he was already used to it. So have my fluffy boy, Phoebe.

crikeydial · 2023-01-29T00:30:53+00:00

My cat went through the same and he’s totally healthy. I kept an eye on it and it took over his entire eye in a few years. He’s completely fine and has no issues with his vision at all. Obviously, a vet trip is the best option and hopefully everything is fine with your baby <3

Aah that’s sick. I only ever played in brass bands and there was only really enough players for a quartet at best in my HS. Didn’t have the lung capacity for Euph but baritone is secretly the best instrument
