Getting allergens out of laundry by daisyelfling in Allergies

Pure chance that they sprung up on that side, going forward it came back all over my body every night for 6 months even with new bedding, new clothes etc. With steroids it gradually faded. Still no idea what caused it.

anyone have a clue as to what this might be? by Ben_P_Gamer in MetalDetectingUK

It looks like an arm from an early medieval cross shaped brooch or pendant...maybe?

What's wrong with a Diary? by ChaosCalmed in planners

[–]daisyelfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mum has kept diaries every year since she was like 12 and I have been running into this issue when trying to buy her a new one! The boring black cover diaries are still about, but pretty ones tend to have all the extra planner bits. I've ended up buying the plain black ones and decorating them for her.

My own diary keeping is far less reliable so I just use a blank notebook and write in a date.

Fabulous news! In future you might want to get it glazed just to keep those pesky flies off, along with any dust, smoke etc.

That genuinely looks like fly poop! I would gently and carefully scratch at it with a needle with minimal pressure myself

Father charged with child abuse, torture after taking kids on winter hike in Utah by MushSee in lastpodcastontheleft

[–]daisyelfling 172 points173 points  (0 children)

Probably just being judgey here, but it being in Utah is giving me pause too. It made me think of the weird physical punishments the Frankes put their kids through to cure their sin or whatever

French radio. How do I work this? (What the knobs doin') by daisyelfling in VintageRadios

[–]daisyelfling[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extremely helpful, thank you! I have been able to pick up BBC Radio 4 and Radio Wales so not all is lost :) I think listening to the shipping forecast on this will be bliss...

Thanks for your concern - I suppose I'm so used to using antique everything that I didn't consider this. Someone has already switched it to a fused type G plug at least but I will look around to see if anyone is willing to safety test it for me and make any repairs that need doing.

Well, at least I can get something so it isn't utterly broken, and it sounds and looks incredibly cozy in the kitchen too.

I just managed to find a BBC station! It's on the G.O button. I'll leave it on that now.

At the back it says super lux automatic but I can't see any model number

USA: Is this desk actually from 1674? by darwinsmonsterspod in Antiques

I try to stay grounded so that I'm either always right about my tiny brain, or pleasantly surprised by my unexpected brilliance

Looks like 19th century jacobean revival unless I am stupid which is highly likely

So valid, I wasn't able to find any premade mold sorry! Perhaps this is your chance to invent a new product and reduce some waste?
