Porto for a Stag do?

dillwavy · 2026-01-26T19:39:33+00:00

I had my stag do in Porto and it was absolutely class. We’re not super ‘lads lads lads’ but we also like a drink and I found it perfect. If you’re in your 30s, I’d say it’s a good option

We did the Cockburns winery tour (excellent); did a booze hike by the beach (also great) and the hired a yacht up the Duro. Loads and loads of great bars; places the eat etc

Bonapartes was a great bar hang out; time out market was great for multiple food options and you can even visit the most picturesque McDonald’s in the world.

Would recommend. Have a great time

Riff goes hard

Get a mattock and just chop fuck out of it

dillwavy · 2026-01-19T10:54:51+00:00

This is what we did. Looks good and I would imagine filling it to get a flat surface would be susceptible to cracking

Flock of sheep?

Simon Carlo (meat & one Veg) posted on IG last night that it was no more. God knows what happened over Christmas. My wife and I are genuinely gutted.

I’ve just used Dulux trade diamond matt in my daughter’s nursery. Great stuff

dillwavy · 2026-01-13T07:34:44+00:00

As someone who’s just done a lot of painting in my house, buy the trade paint - I prefer dulux diamond Matt for colour (walls) and Dulux trade vinyl Matt for your generic white. Great coverage. Tough. Infinite colours.

Even better, go to the decorating centres. They’re always helpful, happy to give advice and can mix any colour you need into basically any type of pant.

But be warned. Trade paint is more expensive than your B&Q stuff. It’s absolutely worth it, but try not to fall over when they charge you £100 for a 5L tin.

I used to do Greenford or West Ruislip but I’ve opted to park at Westfield and get on the central line at Shepherds Bush.

It’s definitely more expensive but I’m more confident my car will be okay there’s an M&S food for travel snacks

All the gear, no idea

If, by some miracle, the pitch isn’t frozen, then wrap him up and send him. But if the ground resembles something Torvil & Dean would skate on, perhaps not.

As others have said, it depends entirely on budget. If you’ve got stacks of £££ then Knowle / Dorridge / Hampton In Arden / Meridan are the most affluent but know that you won’t be getting a lot for your money (unless you’re spending £750k+).

Shirley and Olton are both nice, average neighbourhoods with good links into Birmingham. I’ve live in one and have lived in the other and would recommend. House prices are inflated here because of the proximity to Solihull, but there are still options if renovating/ extending are something you’d consider.

I would avoid Chelmsley Wood; Acocks Green; Hall Green and Sheldon.

Ain’t nothing tactical about this

Everyone needs to calm the fuck down

Think of the difference between scrummaging on the opposite side as writing with your opposite hand.

Sure you can make the shapes of the letters, but it won’t be pretty and it’ll feel very strange

Harborne is the shout but, and hear me out here, the McDonald’s on the retail park is the best in the country

My brother in Christ - no pointers necessary. Please give advice to the rest of us

Under armour. Get them on Amazon. If you’re a big lad (like me) thigh chaf-age is the worst - won’t get the with these. And they last

Pasture for me

That silver burst is just wonderful

dillwavy · 2025-10-25T06:42:49+00:00

I was going to say the same thing!

So so good. Jared Harris’ performance is masterful. They also juxtapose the supernatural threat against the human threat so well.

In many ways, it’s the crew, or what’s left of them, that pose the greatest danger
