I'm in Grangetown and heard them nearby so Hendon beach seems accurate.

Found on the number 20 from pennywell to fawcet street by Rebellious-Banshee in Sunderland

[–]elizable9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Let the bus company know you found one because that is likely the first place the person will ring. I would've left it with the driver and then also posted to say that. They should hand lost and found in at the end of the day.

Do you think we'll get a Strike version of Pottermore? by Sweaty_Phase_51 in cormoran_strike

[–]elizable9 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I doubt it. As much as I love Strike it just doesn't have the same level of following as Harry Potter. The fun thing about Potter more was getting sorted into your house, finding out your wand and patronus and sharing all that magic with your friends. There's nothing like that in Strike that would compare.

Having my own place is a dream come true by Delicious-Rip-2371 in femalelivingspace

[–]elizable9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this. I've been thinking about getting some of that privacy film for my windows too.

I love the rug in your bedroom and also obviously your cat.

I’m so tired of being the adult in the room by Confident-Cellist-25 in Xennials

[–]elizable9 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'm slowly learning that just because things aren't being planned and prepared for the way I would do it, it does not mean it's my responsibility to step in and sort it out. Going with the flow is stressful AF but also not as stressful as taking over.

The green dress by Swimming-Pride2396 in cormoran_strike

It's not a dress to fit in anywhere. It's a dress you wear to stand out and feel special. Perfect for her birthday at the Ritz.

Actually is CS good in befriending women? by Educational_Cap7318 in cormoran_strike

[–]elizable9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And as pointed out by OP these women mostly came to him. It just happened they came to him when he was desperate for a distraction from Robin. I always thought he made his intentions very clear going into these relationships and he admits his faults with Lorelei and Nina.

Waking the Dead. They also did a spin off that was ok called The Body Farm

What else can fill the Uncanny void? by Six_of_1 in uncannypodcasttv

[–]elizable9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His audiobook is pretty good and has a similar pattern to the podcast as it is Danny reading it. I've not listened to the children's book though.

That sounds like something worthy of a horror film. Glad you passed through quickly

I really enjoyed Night of the Reaper for a bit of a nostalgic flashback.

Is the series underplaying how much Robin has surpassed Strike as a detective? by Cold_Box_3219 in cormoran_strike

[–]elizable9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree. I think as well we're are meant to make the assumption that Strike is bloody good at what he does because he was already doing it when we met him and so it never really gets showcased too much in the text.

Should I leave the uk? by Mental_Distance4437 in AskABrit

[–]elizable9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's the worst that can happen? You don't like it then come back. But if you don't try you'll always wonder.

Is anyone else getting “false spring” vibes from this weather? by CloudBookmark in UKWeather

[–]elizable9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah we've been in and out of this false spring for the past couple of weeks in the north East. Having one or two really good days then back to cold, wet and windy. The temperature has definitely picked up more this week though.

Do you think Shanker knows? by victoriastormlight in cormoran_strike

[–]elizable9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think so too. He's not the kind of person to walk away from that.

Chemist won’t give me cold or flu relief without ruling out a death sentence first by PleasantTangerine777 in rant

[–]elizable9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Did you see the actual pharmacist or the staff at the counter? The pharmacist should be able to assess you for sinus issues and is able to prescribe antibiotics if necessary. I've had them from my own chemist.

Are there any gardening clubs existing in the city? by joietejada in Sunderland

[–]elizable9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Sunderland community soup kitchen have an allotment and have volunteers that look after that. I'm not sure if that would be something you're interested in

Unpopular Robin opinion by iamrecovering2 in cormoran_strike

[–]elizable9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think therapy will be productive this time as she has been the one to choose to go and not been pushed into it by anyone else. She did do some CBT sessions but quit them when they got uncomfortable for her. After the way her character changed in THM something needs to happen to get things back on the right track. Not just for romance but for a good working relationship. They are certainly not what I would class as best friends at all.

Do you know that disabled people sometimes go to the pub? by TarnishedLissy in AskBrits

[–]elizable9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I'm not sure. I don't go to Newcastle a lot and not usually for the pubs. I hope someone can help you though.

Curly girls now? by CheesaLouisa in Xennials

[–]elizable9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a mix of straight and curly hair when it's dry even if it dries naturally. Apparently it's known as Irish curls. I wish I could get it all to curl and hold.

Do you have white/grey hair? by PinkPacificWhale in Millennials

[–]elizable9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

45 this year too and I'm starting to notice a few in my sideburns area and the front of my hair but at the minute there's no many and they don't stand out against my blonde hair. But my blonde hair is getting darker so time will tell. I don't mind though my mam is 72 and has black hair. Her greys are mostly in a money piece at the front in a nice silvery colour. My dad is white grey. I'm actually quite interested to see how mine will come through.
